Most of the time, we perform where there is a full bar. So most of the time, kids aren't allowed. This time, they are! We'll be performing at Rave in the Nave Saturday night. Cookies and punch are involved, so bring your kids. See those kids rolling their eyes and sticking their tongues out? Those …
There’s an e in dysfunction now
Heads up, Merriam-Webster! I'm just kidding. Unruffle your tweed boxers already. What I mean is my book, Sass Mouth: Destiny is a Joke, is now available electronically through Kindle. It's a super-cheap deal too - $8.95! It's a big day when a pizza costs more than 10 years of grueling writing. But it's yours to …
Happy Thanksgiving!
See that pie? It's the pie I'm NOT making this year. If I had a picture of a turkey, you could also see the turkey I'm not making this year. This year, we're dining a la Trader Joe's. It will be an amazing microwave feast, served every five to seven minutes, depending on the oven. …
My heart goes out to ComedySportz
Portland has lost two gifted ComedySportz comedians, Mike and Katie Myers. They were celebrating their 15th anniversary at the coast when they were tragically swept into the ocean.

Another hot one: Portland Woman magazine
Andrea Leoncavallo, photographer phenom, is one of my favorite people. She's vibrant and intensely passionate about what she does, but in a quiet way. She listens because she genuinely wants to hear what you have to say. Then, she captures it in her photography. Her recent and very ambitious project, She Inspires 365, reveals one …

Rest in Peace, June Cleaver
Barbara Billingsley, the actress who played my idol June Cleaver, died today at age 94. People say she embraced being called America's Mom and always had a nice thing to say. Since I make fun of June Cleaver in my act, fawning that I want to be her because repression would be a vacation, I …
