Philosophy
My Fellow Comedists,
I'm worried. We'll be on the road Sunday, driving home from Vermont. Usually no big deal, but a good deal of of the trip will take us through New York State. New York State on Sunday -- as hundreds upon hundreds of gay and lesbian couples will be getting married, we will be right there, me and TheWife, just trying to go home as the very institution of marriage crumbles beneath us. I need help. I need strategies. My nukular family will be experiencing the social and moral equivalent of Y2K. I'm thinking that we need to go incognito, so I've brought along a plaid flannel shirt for TheWife and a cd of show tunes to keep me calm and distracted. Sure, the world will end in 2012, but that leaves us a full year to worry about. Give me a hand, friends, aside from visiting Michelle Bachmann's husband, what can we do?
Live, love, and laugh,
Irreverend Steve

- Oxymorons
My Fellow Comedists, Today the less short of the short people asked "What is an oxymoron"? Not wanting to use "jumbo shrimp" or "military intelligence," I came up with "vegetarian meatballs." I'd have said "happily married," but TheWife would have...
- Passing The Plate: Wedding Edition
My Fellow Comedists, It's time to solicit donations again. Other churches ask for money, but Comedists tithe jokes. We had the royal wedding this week, but this weekend, one of our own -- Jeff Maynes -- is tying the knot. So in his honor, let's...
- Take My Wife, Please
My Fellow Comedists, It's time to pass the plate again. In most religions they ask for money, but Comedists tithe jokes. In honor of Valentine's Day, let's do relationship jokes. So, dig deep and be generous. My offering is an old classic:...
