Normal Vs. Screwed Up

Christopher Titus has insights he wishes to share.
I have enormous respect for this guy.
Not only is he one of the best stand-up comedians
of all time, he’s one of the most honest.
The crazy of which he speaks is very much a part of him.
His mother was certifiably insane, proving that diagnosis
on more than one occasion, and his father had some
serious issues of his own.
What could have been a short lived stint in tall towers
and high powered rifles was instead a well earned career
as a very talented comic.
In some ways he’s similar to the late, great George Carlin in
that he tells it like it is, with sincerity and a dash of humility.
A couple of low level naughty bits, use the backhoe to dig a
large pit in the back yard, put the kids at the bottom, fill it in
and they won’t hear a thing.
This is a sweet piece, some excellent lines here…


Space Princess

Celestial Navigations with a neat little sketch about
being far from home and dining on what you can.
A good diet is important, try to avoid eating saturated
fats, sugar and tattoos whenever possible.
One could conclude that he did not get along well
with his mother…


Smackin’ Kittens

Robert Hawkins with an irreverent look at quitting
bad habits, going with the flow, and feline pugilism.
I actually had someone complain about this piece
when I played it on the show.
I’m as sensitive as the next guy, but I understand
humor, and when someone is making a joke by
utilizing absurdity as a way of getting laughs I
tend to cut it some slack.
If I thought for one second that Mr. Hawkins liked
to go ten rounds with a baby kitten as a way to
cope with stress I’d send him an email demanding
that he provide proof that it actually works.
How do “I” dull the pain of everyday life?
Catapults and babies.
Works like a charm.
My neighborhood is very quiet…
