The Funny
I am like the city's worst comedy fan these days, but once in a while I do get to a show. (I'm not complaining as most of the time now when I go, everything is new to me, it's just surreal to have once known everything about what was going on and now have almost no clue.) Tonight it happened to be Best of Miscellaneous rejections, and I let me just say that Joe Mande's letters to Maury Povich were once again hilarious, and my game show-loving self delighted in the Wheel of Fortune segment, but Rich Zeroth's phone call to Orbitz (he read off an impossibly long confirmation number until he just gave up) was freaking hilarious.
And if I hadn't seen The Defibulators broken banjo for myself, I wouldn't have been quite as tickled about "Banj-aid," a benefit next week for their run over banjo. Check it out:
