Friday Funnies II

This is from the the same Emmitt Smith roast from last week's clip. Every comic has a bad night when the audience just doesn't feel you and you are bloodletting onto the stage. I remember being in high school and performing at speech and debate tournaments having similar experiences. Now...

Can I Re-Gift This?

So last month was my 32nd birthday. No big deal, I figured. I'm not one for birthdays or holidays or any of that stuff. It's just not my style. And while there were no candles or cakes or (thankfully) Happy Birthday renditions, I did receive one gift that I was...

Here is my column from last week, courtesy of the Macomb Daily. The games I reviewed were Little King's Story, G-Force and King of Fighers XII.

What I’ve Watched: Spring Awakening
