Here is my version of my Monsters article from Cracked.com, minus the changes and photos they added. Please note - I am not writing about the director’s intended metaphor, but the instinctual fears these monsters play upon.
Horror movies are windows into society’s deepest fears. By examining the movie monsters that fascinate us the most, we […]
On Saturday, Cracked posted an article I wrote for them about fear and horror movies, called The Real World Fears Behind 8 Popular Movie Monsters. Check it out!
I must say, I am sort of proud that in between the “your retarded”(sic) and “lame, they just let you do this because you have tits” comments some […]
Way to go, Japan! Your Fanta commercials are much better than ours - and no creepy color-coded ladies!

Small Factory was an adorable Sub-Pop band. In college, my roommates/bandmates and I loved them and strived to sound like them, and now they are long gone and it seems that almost no one remembers them, which is too bad. You should not be one of those people who has never hear of them of […]
Glennis McMurray, my comedy partner, is a delicate flower. See?
Hm. Wait…ok - see?
FUCK. Seriously!
Ok, whatever, close enough.

Ok, so I will admit that my affection for Robert Downey Jr. borders on the insane, that my love for him as an actor has possibly crossed over into full blown obsessive delusion since Iron Man came out, but trust me on this — go see Tropic Thunder. (Especially if you are a frustrated NYC […]
There is not much else I can say besides:Fartypants - the underwear that hides your farts.“They can be worn anytime, anywhere - in bed, to work, at social events, including professional meetings or when travelling in any vehicle, including an airplane.”PHEW!

Well, it was indeed a busy weekend - 48 hours of non-stop improv on 3 stages. Brooke Sheilds even showed up! I sang my little heart out and praised pedophiles and murderers along the way. If you were there, […]
