Thanks for keeping up,

I’m glad to announce that Mr. Brian Kremer will join me onstage Wednesday night. He plays guitar real good and sings like an angel in a bird cage. These Whip In shows have been quite fun. If you haven’t checked out the new stage set-up and menu items, you’re missing out.

Now, for your personal edification, here is a list of things that can take you to the next level:

* elevator
* discipline
* escalator
* Nintendo Power
* hardware salesman
* stairs
* stack of trained bears
* sticktoitiveness

You’re welcome,

I don’t have time for jokes and wild.
“Wild” is a noun now.
“Noun” is a verb now.
“I had to noun my way through a bear trap to make it home in time for dinner.”

The point is this: I have a solo show at the fabulous Whip In tonight at 8 pm, and I’m performing tomorrow night as part of the super-fun Encyclopedia Show. Details are below, and I hope you can make it!

The Encyclopedia Show Austin

7:30pm
ND @ 501 Studios
501 I-35
Austin, TX
Each month a topic is picked from a real live encyclopedia and a clutch of volunteering writers are given assignments on that entry. There are Def Poetry Jam vets, writing professors, slam poets, stand-up comics, fiction writers. You’ll learn true things and some things that are less true!

This month’s topic: VICE PRESIDENTS!

Featuring Contributors:
Genevieve Van Cleve (poet): Alexander H. Stephens
Stacy Muszynski (author): Charles G. Dawes
Southpaw Jones (musician): Geraldine Ferraro
Madeline Malka (multi-media performer): Aaron Burr
Frank Rivera (gay scenester): Dan Quayle
Jordan Palmer (actor): Spiro T. Agnew

Featuring:
Katelyn Wood as Wiki Lake
Mike Slefinger as Lord Professor Michael Patrick Slefinger
Kyle Schultz as Mike’s Stepdad Ron
Betsy McCann as Gypsy Magnolia
Katie Pengra as Becky, the Intern
Gy Odom as The Fact Checker
And your hosts, Mike and Ralphie!

You HAVE to come! Only $6! Nothing in this world is $6. Except this.
Pre-show and drinks start at 7:30pm. Show starts promptly at 8:13.

I’m like the ant who finds a great 2-for-1 coupon on paper towels but can’t spend it because it’s a hundred times his body weight and he doesn’t have a checking account or legal tender. I’m like the manager of the bacon factory who says “More slices!” but all the workers hear it as “Morse License,” so they just stare back, dumbfounded. It’s like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife.

All I know is, I’m excited to be playing where the people are friendly, the drinks are extraordinary, and the food is yummy varied. There is never a cover, but I sure do appreciate $5 tips. Come enjoy the air conditioning with me, and pick up beer/wine/incense/chocolate for the pantry while you’re at it.
