About Me

Who am I? I am someone who believes you never truly know yourself until you can laugh at yourself. I have made a life of making others laugh(sometimes with me, oftentimes at me). So perhaps it is best to ask you, "Who is Johnny Phoenix?" Post your comment below. Seriously, I really want to know.

My Interests

Laughter, it's like jogging for the soul. Anything that makes people laugh without causing me too much pain interests me. As a self-proclaimed "Action Hero" of comedy I have made a living with bullwhips, fire, straitjackets, chains-the list is too long to write. Let's just say I'm a fun guy to go through airport security with. Oh, yeah. I also like long walks on the beach...chains optional.

I'd like to meet:

The first caveman to ever light his farts on fire. I bet he was a hoot...

Music:

Dig Ren music? Check out some of my friends. Menagerie Music, Empty Hats, New Minstrel Revue, Ty Billings, Ten Seconds of Harmony, Craig Farrington...

Movies:

Well, me on DVD of course.

Television:

Supernatural, Heroes, Lost, Two and a Half Men, Family Guy. I think the greatest ensembles to ever appear on TV are the casts of Monty Python, the original Saturday Night Live, Mash and of course...The Muppets.

Books:

Dancing With The Fire- by Michael Sky, Something Wonderful Right Away;An Oral History of The Second City And The Compass Players- by Jeffrey Sweet, Truth In Comedy;The Manual of Improvisation-by Halpern/Close/Johnson. Also the essays of Abraham Lincoln and the philosophy of Carl Jung(those guys really knew a lot about truth).

Heroes:

To believe in the heroic makes us all heroes

Fire Marshall Troubles

It's Friday afternoon.  It's the day before the opening of the Bay Area Renaissance Festival.  Excitement fills the air.  Excitement perhaps, but no smoke and certainly no fire.  I...
