what are you into? whats your sport? your leisure? excuse me? hiking? like walking around in the woods and shit? thats not a sport! real tough to dodge those trees at 1.5 mph. hiking. psssh. thats not a sport, thats a means of getting to a specific destination in the woods, or no specific destination what so ever. why cant you just say im gonna go walk around in that forrest over on yonder mountain for an hour or so? wanna come? watch out for bears. dont get that when you hike cross town to the local cvs. whats that noise? is that a..? do you think he sees us? RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! never run from bears. they are faster than you. its best to make yourself big and scary, so as to try and intimidate the 400 pound beast. also dont pluck their pubes, they hate that.

Here’s a story of what I believe is the perfect example of what not to do if you book a comedy show.
My partner Kevin and I produce a hypnosis show for the corporate, and sometimes, comedy club market. We had a booking on Friday and Saturday in Put-in-Bay, Ohio at what we thought was a resort.
Mistake number one, it wasn’t a resort (the word our agent used.) It was a restaurant. Oops, no problem, we’ve done dinner theater before. We hate it, but we’ve done it.
We walk up to the host and ask where the manager is. She doesn’t know. That’s OK, we ask if she knows about a show there and she tells us that the show is supposed to be, “right over there on the gazebo.” The show is supposed to be outside, while people are eating. Kevin is supposed to hypnotize people on a porch. BIG mistake. No problem, our contract and rider clearly spell out our need to be indoors and our agent is very good. We’ll fix this.
