Did you know ducks eat for free at Subway?

The original plan was to go shoot some photos with a friend of mine, but we ended up at a comedy club instead. Don’t ask me how or why, it just happened that way.

And, as it turns out, I’ve only laughed so much once before, in NYC. You see, Mitch Hedberg was the headliner. Totally different style from the slick, Seinfeld-esque comedy you’re going to get from most other comics.. You, know.. ‘What’s the deal with…’ He doesn’t do that. What he actually does is this: Keeps his eys closed most of the time, looks down most of the time with his hair in his face, and spews about a million one-liners out at you over the course of an hour: ‘ I just bought a house, and they told me it had 2 bedrooms in it. I think it is up to me to decide how many bedrooms it has. This is a bedroom, it just has an oven in it.’ It might not sound funny now, but let me tell you. His signature monotone and delivery system will fucking kill you. Unless you’re uhm.. of rather less intellectual capacity, as one of our companions seemed to be, who just didn’t seem to get it. At all. And when it was over, he needed to (loudly) vocalize these feelings, which none of us agreed with. So then we played Quake. Which makes everything all better.
