Hey all. Been doing open mic's at this place and was able to land a feature spot on their "New Faces" comics list which is fairly common because the guy who runs it is really nice. I'm only gonna get about 8 minutes or so, but I'll make sure it's the best 8 minutes of your life, outside of your sexual experiences...that usually probably last half that time.

The Edge Comedy Club
(Chicago Center for the Performing Arts)
777 N Green St
Chicago, IL

Friday, April 8, 2011
Starts @ 8:30pm
Tickets are $12 at the door.

Hope to see you there. I'll buy you a drink. A $12 drink if necessary.

W_Z,
Wow,that's great. I too tried standup comedy and was once introduced on stage by Arsenio Hall (Before he hit it big). I admire your courage. It ain't easy,that's for sure!

The chance to heckle you from the crowd makes this very appealing.

That reminds me of a joke.

A whiner, a shit stirrer, and a rampant asshole walked into a bar. Then he said "My name is spmack, give me a beer"

White people get to do things black people don't get to do. Elvis been dead 15 years, people still see him. You never hear somebody say 'I just saw Marvin Gaye! He was at the MALL! Well you know I heard it through the grapevine!'

Black parents and white parents are just different, no better no worse, like Poltergeist. Little white girl gets trapped in the TV the mom's all hysterics crying 'ahhhhhhhh! Carolyn's in the TV what' we gonna do?' You know if that had been a black mama she would've been proud, she'd call her friends 'Girl! Turn to channel 2, my baby's on TV!'

Black people and white people are just different, no better no worse. You see a white guy in the unemployment line going '$210 a week? How the hell am I gonna live on $210 a week?' There'll be a brother behind him, '$210 a week?! For nothing? Baby get the kids we done come up!'

We've been broke since the day before forever. We get around being poor by putting things on layaway, and we leave it there for a long time, don't we? I know brothers that still got bell bottoms on layaway. You ever leave something on layaway so long you don't even recognize it? 'Damn, when'd I ge tan 8-track tape player? It's paid for now'

DL Hugley should thank Will Smith and the Fresh Prince show for giving him that exposure. Everything started from that little guest role.

This seems like an event pantsless Internet cretins would enjoy. We'd also be supporting our own. Let's fill the joint!

KATYA: He'll be all right. I must go and be with Misha now. I don't want you to come with me.

JERRY: Oh, why not?

KATYA: It has been three days since our night together. Misha said that was all the time I needed to put in.

JERRY: Really?

KATYA: In my country, they speak of a man so virile, so potent, that to spend a night with such a man is to enter a world of such sensual delights most women dare not dream of. This man is known as the "Comedian". You may tell jokes, Mr. W-Z, but you are no Comedian.

JERRY: I guess I just didn't expect it from the way you've been acting.

MARLENE: You sure you want to talk about this? 'Cause I sure don't.

JERRY: Of course I want to talk about it.

MARLENE: Well, okay. I guess things changed for me on Tuesday night.

JERRY: Tuesday night? What happened Tuesday night?

MARLENE: ..I saw your act.

JERRY: My act? What does that have to do with anything?

MARLENE: Well, to be honest, it just didn't make it for me. It's just so much fluff.

JERRY: I can't believe this. So what are you saying? You didn't like my act, so that's it?

MARLENE: I can't be with someone if I don't respect what they do.

JERRY: You're a cashier!

MARLENE: Look, Jerry, it's just not my kind of humor.

JERRY: You can't go by the audience that night. It was late. They were terrible.

MARLENE: I heard the material.

I'm picturing Zack in some 80's style suit jacket with the skinny tie and a brick backround.
