Comedy Part 851: Comedy Online, One More Time

Location:  Zoom/Facebook
Emcee: Vincent Opper
Lineup: Jerry Wahl, Pat Ryan, Allison Arana, Ron Winn, Orchid Cameron, Tiel Pierce, Larry Smith

I was advertised as the headliner, which basically meant I was going on last.  I hadn't done any sort of comedy show in about two months, so it was good to brush up on my material and try some new stuff.  It looks like the Funny Bone open-mic is returning on Tuesday and online signup has returned as well, so hopefully I can make the list for that.  Sometimes real life writes the comedy for you...ever accidentally catch two people hooking up in the corner of a parking garage?  I HAVE.
