Two words: Utterly hypnotic.

Things are starting to stop now. A play is finally over. That is good, because I am tired. Now I'm in another play. I have no idea what it's about, or if it will be any good, nor does anyone else involved in it, and we will not know until they are over. Wow. I think we could be ripping the audience off...in a nice way.

I think I'm sleepy.
Fly Segway, fly.

A couple of days ago, comedian Mitch Hedberg died of a heart attack at the age of 37.
As usual, Emo Philips has put it best: "Although the mass media has deemed it too unimportant to report, the best stand-up comedian in the world passed away Wednesday."

Just about everything else about his death has been said.
I was able to see Hedberg perform in February with some friends, his show one of the best stand up acts I had seen (despite the fact that the couple next to us was obviously attempting to get it on).
In fact, to me, Hedberg was one of the first comedians I saw and reminded me (along with Emo Philips and Steven Wright) that it was possible to be intelligent and still funny. It's really a shame he had to die so early-it seems that all of the talented people are a rare breed now.

But most importantly, he taught me that an escalator can never break. The rest of you know the punchline.
