Voice quivering. Stomach fluttering. Palms sweating. And you think this is easy? The nerves took over prior to tonight's show. It's no different than performing in front of people. Sitting in an ice box with no one around. Privately secured away in a 8' by 8' safety net, and STILL, the nerves took over. For the listener, this is a good thing. It means I care. For me, it's just one step closer to that ulcer I've been dreaming about. Regardless, I wouldn't have it any other way. I love it!
Oh, and by the way, please take the time to hug your favorite comedian today. It takes a great deal of courage to make a crowd laugh. The passing of George Carlin is a sad one and he will surely be missed.

The Zen Of Sarcasm
This is from an e-mail sent to me from my sister, Chrissy. I thought it would be perfect to share with everyone else...ENJOY!
2. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and leaky tire.
3. It's always darkest before dawn. So if you're going to steal your neighbor's newspaper, that's the time to do it.
4. Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted. 5. Always remember that you're unique. Just like everyone else.
6. Never test the depth of the water with both feet.
7. If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments.
8. Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
9. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is probably not for you.
10. Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
11. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably a wise investment.
12. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
13. Some days you're the bug; some days you're the windshield.
14. Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
15. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
16. A closed mouth gathers no foot.
17. Duct tape is like 'The Force.' It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
18. There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works.
19. Generally speaking, you aren't learning much when your lips are moving.
20. Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
21. Never miss a good chance to shut up.
22. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
The Zen of Sarcasm
1. Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me either. Just pretty much leave me alone.2. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and leaky tire.

Music Lovers Everywhere!
"Welcome to the TerrorDome!" Ah, Public Enemy. Where have those years gone? So easily I fell into the mindless set of FM Radio regurgitation that left me craving for something new.
Introducing......RANDORADIO.COM
An alternative the ordinary. I always wondered what it would be like to listen to a radio show that played everything I enjoyed listening to. I never thought it would be possible.
Now, I finally have it. "THE BLACK COFFEE HOUR." The one hour show that I have full control over. All the music I listen to when I have the chance. All the music that plays in the car as I drive to and from work. It's the show I've always wanted to hear. It's essentially the ultimate mix tape for me. And what makes it best, is that I get to play it for you! Ah, the joy, the invigoration, the anxiety, the anything/everything show I've ever wanted.
Tune in to http://www.randoradio.com/ and listen to everything you've ever wanted to hear, but can't get on traditional stations. Learn something, love something, then walk away with a sense of accomplishment!
My name is Ken Pearson and I host "THE BLACK COFFEE HOUR." You can hear me ONLY on RandoRadio.com, Freeform Internet Radio That Melts In Your Ears, And Not On Your Desktop!
