What's the point if you can't laugh at yourself?

About Me

I was born and raised in Montreal, Canada - A land of high fashion, hard partying, laughs, and french people. But not your typical french people. "Les Quebecois" - the french people that people from France don't understand... So I moved to Los Angeles about 3 1/2 years ago. I miss the french people sometimes. But only until I go home to visit. Enough about french people. I ramble. I'm a little kid at heart. I like noticing the details, subtleties and absurdities in life - I like writing about them. I'm not a vegeterian. But I do like vegetables. .

My Interests

On weekends, I DJ and MC Bar-Mitzvahs. I love my job. Been at it for 10 years now and still can't believe I get paid to party with people every weekend... I am a die-hard Hockey fan - Go Habs Go! I play golf - have since I was 7. I like poker - No Limit Hold 'em, and I like reading when I have the time. I'm interested in space - It reminds you how insignificant all the bullshit really is..

I'd like to meet:

Eddie Izzard. And anybody who is positive and easy-going...

Music:

Anything House, love remixes - if they're done right, I'm a DJ so it's really hard to pick favorites... But, Dave Matthews, Black Eyed Peas, Gorillaz, Thievery Corporation, Our Lady Peace, Morcheeba, anything motown, DJ Boris (You don't know him yet, but you will...), Jack Johnson, anything groovy.

Movies:

Dazed and Confused, Snatch, Bad Boys, At Close Range, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Usual Suspects, Lost in Translation, Spider Man 2, Hulk, Love Actually, Mystic River, Stranger Than Fiction

Television:

Law & Order: SVU and Criminal Intent, Entourage, Smallville (I'm not even ashamed to say it), Mythbusters, Family Guy, Futurama, House, Heroes, Dexter, Psych, Monk. Not that I get to watch too much TV, but when I do, those are the shows that I watch...

Books:

Comic Insights - The Art of Standup Comedy by Franklyn Ajaye, The Way of the Peaceful Warrior, The Four Agreements

Heroes:

My Mom and Step-dad, My wife (She works with cancer patients all day long), My best friends (you know who you are), and of course, my unbelievable sister Kelly - one of the bravest people I know. Eddie Izzard, Richard Jeni, Wolverine.

Crackin' the bones...

I think we take our spinal columns for granted. Our lungs, too. Think about it: You never sit there going "wow, it's so nice to be standing upright!" Until you can't. You also never say: "isn't it nic...

Hack. Or is it?

I was poking around on chucklemonkey.com and thought "hey, he updated the hack list again. Let's see what people are complaining about now..." I decided that if comics were to read the...

At a show recently, I had someone ask me: "so, what, you guys just roll out to shows together like the 4 musketeers?" He was referring to 3 of my best friends out here who are also comedians. He asked...
