I guess this is kinda true but I still have my reservations...about both the stereotype and intellectual part.

Alot of comedy breaks stereotypes.  Some comedians could be considered intellectuals. But I bet Nelson George only meant this statment in context of this article about Tyler Perry/Madea so I won't take it too seriously.  I do think that alot of higher educated types are more likely to be offended by alot of things though...

This was a great weekend!

It started off last Thursday with my audition video (see Honor Code video posted earlier) being unofficialy accepted! What audition video, you ask?  I was being considered to speak at my alma mater, GCSU, during their freshman Week of Welcome about some of the rules for conduct in college and more specifically, make those rules interesting and engaging.  The folks at the college (shout out to Gina Peavy and Dr. H) seemed to like rough vid I showed them and now I will get to talk to the entire incoming freshman class about Reason, Respect, Responsibility and anything else the college wants me to touch on... and get paid for it- too easy and fun!

Then I went down to St. Augustine, FL to do my first guest set w/ my homeboy Eric (who was featuring) at Gypsy's Comedy Club.  They loved me and invited me back to feature for 20 min in the summer!  That would be my first paid gig as a comic and I get to do it in sunny Florida. As of today I'm only on performance no 84 so I'm excited to be even considering getting paid to do what I love so early in the game. God is good and unpredictable.
