    I've been away for quite awhile. Well, not really, just away from any discussion of that horrid religion. I just couldn't give any more seconds of my life to talking about anything even remotely related to jehovah's witnesses.

    But, a lot has happened in the past few months. The guy who sexually harrassed me at work finally quit. I have the cover illustration for my short story collection. It's paid for and everything. I hope to have the book out by the end of summer. And *drumroll* I have spent the past ten Thursday evenings performing stand-up comedy at the local comedy club, Goonies. It started off as a dare but I soon realized that I'm just enough of a ham to get in front of people and be silly. I was offered my first paying gig last Thursday after the show.

    So, while we still don't have the right to legally make that disgusting religion pay for their lies and duplicity and for the abusive manner they control those who are unfortunate enough to give them more than a disinterested glance, at least we can stand up and show the universe that we may have been knocked down, but we aren't knocked out.

    Oh, and The Simpson's Movie opened last night. Yep, life has its issues, but its GOOOOOOD!

    Thanks everyone. A friend of mine said he would film me next week so hopefully I can put up a YouTube soon. :-)

    That's great news, Abandoned. I look forward to the youtube thing - hope it works out. Does any of your stand-up routine include stuff about the dubs?

    Hi Abandoned, nice to hear from you. Congratulations on your successes - you must be pretty brave to do stand up comedy ten times in a row - and pretty good to get a paying gig.
