home | archives Tortured Souls Society Thursday, December 08, 2005 I got a check in the mail..... from Grace White for the 3 days I worked the Reno gig. This chanting is working, I'm telling you. Thank you Grace. I had every confidence that you are a respectable business person. Sorry you found it intolerable to work with me but I wasn't thrilled about being told not to do a joke (one involving a punchline referring to a pelt) only to have you do one about your dad having a pelt. Ahhhhhh, these things all have a way of working themselves out. Every comic who knows my act, knows that joke & some even who it's about (shhhh-Howard) so it's not like if you do it in front of any of them, they won't know you 'borrowed' it. Once again, I thank you for paying me. I wish you continued success w/ your ladies group of comics that of course was 'your idea'. I'm thinking of starting my own group but instead of No 'Y' Chromosome Comedy as was the original plan, I might call it "Chicks Who Whip Comedy Ass". Of course, I'll have all the edgiest female potty mouths I can find to work it. Middle America loves that crap. We won't be doing any elder care homes. Although my friend Elaine's dad is nearly 70 y/o & thinks I'm hysterical when I get really vulgar but as Tony Sparks always says, "Comedy is subjective." .: posted by Jane Barbone 3:39 AM
