Roading it, Folks. New England, again. It’s been great. I really don’t know why this tour is somehow revelatory to me personally. I think it’s the car time. The moving meditation of driving the familiar ...

The Comedy Store, People! It was the 50th anniversary of The Comedy Store last week. There was a party. The vortex was opened. I don’t know if I can explain the current that I locked into at The Comedy ...

Georgia, Folks! The show in Georgia was full. The crowd was great. I was a little shaky. The quadruple macchiato an hour before the show didn’t help. It’s always weird to me to feel like that on ...

Oral surgery, People! Not great. I think the procedure went fine. They had to rip a tooth out of my head. A dead molar with a crown on it. An old root canal was rotting. I am very glad I ...

Live Rock, People! I went to see Gang of Four the other night. I don’t think we’re past Covid but we are certainly in the ‘fuck it’ period of the pandemic. The pause between surges. The respite of ...

Snow, Folks. Snow. It had been a while since I had actually seen snow. I still kind of took it for granted like it was no big deal. It isn’t, really. I have seen a lot of it in my life. I just ...

Watching the water, People. This may be a journal entry. I drove up to San Luis Obispo with my opener, Esther Povitsky. There’s a point where the water, the Pacific Ocean, just appears on the ...

People!I made a quick trip home. Went to look at some property and also to see my father. Sadly, every time I go back I feel a little less connected. I think I may have eaten my last helping of carne ...

The Bay Area, People! I always forget that San Francisco kind of gives me the creeps. Not the people or even the city per se. There’s just a vibe up there, maaaan. An electric darkness. Before I try to ...

Been a little loopy, Folks. I was in NYC last week doing some promotional stuff for The Bad Guys. There was a lot of shooting for television spots in Korea, China, Israel, Mexico, Australia and more. ...

Getting through, Folks! I’m better. I think. The test was very, very close to clean on Saturday. I’ll do one today. There was just a smidgen of a hint of a second line. My load is way down and almost ...

Funerals, People. We’re all going to have one. I don’t think any of them will be as truly loving and sad as Bob Saget’s. So many people loved this guy. It was overwhelming. I have not been to an actual ...
