Finding the Good in Everyday Life
First Betty White, then Bob Saget. And now I wake up this morning to the news that Louie Anderson has died. Not a great start to 2022. Might as well try to laugh. So here are five of my favorite Louie Anderson moments. I know others will have a different list, with things from projects [...]
It’s the recent passing of Betty White that made me think of doing this post. Boy, I really hate that she died. A long time ago, seems like a lifetime ago, I did standup comedy for a few years. I obviously wasn’t very good or successful at it; otherwise, I’d still be doing it. Well, [...]
Don’t throw anything at me, but I recently saw Elf for the first time… I honestly don’t see what the appeal is. I just didn’t think it was very good. And that’s saying something because I really love Will Ferrell. So I was thinking about the funniest stuff I’ve seen him do over the years. [...]
So, I love the American version of The Office with Steve Carrell. He's awesome. The writing is awesome. The entire cast is awesome. The only thing that wasn't too awesome were a few seasons near the end after they jumped the shark. But as much as I like the American version, I've always loved the [...]
Here they are. My five favorite sketches from Kids in the Hall. I love these guys. I wish I could do nothing but sit and watch them all day long. I know a lot of people these days are enamored with other people and things: Jake Paul (whoever he is), The Bachelorette (never seen it), [...]

Back when I was in college, I walked into my friend Jim’s apartment one day and he was watching this really weird show. ”What’s that?” I asked. ”Oh, you gotta see these guys. They’re amazing. They’re like Monty Python, but they’re Canadian.” It was the first year that “Kids in the Hall” was on the [...]
I started thinking about all the movies Steve Martin has done, and these are my 5 favorite scenes.
The one TV show that I almost never miss is CBS Sunday Morning. Mostly because I like to know what’s going on in the world, but I don’t like the dark feeling that you’re left with after watching the regular evening news, and definitely not the hopelessness that you get from cable news. And there [...]
There are some people on this earth who seem to be destined for greatness. People who are going to get there no matter what, because they've just got something that very few others have. I think Bill Hader is one of those people. I know that some individuals will set a really high goal, and [...]
