I'm a comedian. Some of my writing is at TheRag.com. I am easing out of Friendster semi-retirement, so that'll have to do for now.

Wes Anderson, upstanding citizens who want to help figure out something worthwhile to do for the next four years, folks with a compatible sense of humor/taste in music, anyone with hot tips on karaoke action in the greater Los Angeles area, or places to do standup comedy in California, Arizona, Nevada. Anybody who would like to open a chain restaurant called Truman Chipotle with me.
