Bills

    You may have noticed that we havent been around for you lately.  The reason is I have been without Internet because I'm poor and couldn't pay my cable bill and still eat, so being fat I chose food, and unfortunatly that meant that you, my loyal constant reader, has been screwed out of your precious Laughing At Life 2 funny that you need and crave.
     I want you to know it was nothing you did.  Do not blame yourselves.  I still love you just as much as ever and I always will.  This was only between me and money and as soon as money and I can work out our differences I will be back and things will be ok once again.  Stay strong and know I'm proud of you for how well you've handled this.

Are you Laughing at Life, 2?


     Life can be very hard, painful, and extremely stressful as well.  Luckily, it can also be hilarious and it often is too, if you know where and how to look at it.  That is what is so healing and necessary about the art of comedy.  That is also why I love doing it so much.  I love making people laugh.  It's like a drug to me and it is to most of the other comics that I know as well.  
     We comics are mostly all just a bunch of sad clowns who see the world through a skewed view that allows us to translate it into humor.  We need our audience as much or more than they need us.  The relationship between the comedian and the audience is a very intimate one even if it doesn't fully show on the surface.  The audience benefits from the release of the laughter and the comic benefits from the audience's laughter itself.
     Making people laugh is like our own version of cheap therapy, and it's our anti-depressant drug too.  It is for me at least.  Making people laugh and feeling that acceptance and praise is why I do it.  It's what drives me to write and perform.  I love to entertain people and hear them laugh.  I need it, it's my drug, and I've been addicted to it ever since I first stepped onto a stage and felt it.

Hello Shawn, it's evaluation time,


Laughing at Life, 2 just reached 50,000 hits and, we're thrilled, so we wanted to look back at the past and also toward the future of the best comedy source ever, Laughing at Life, 2. 
We've hired Suzy Liddlewitz from a huge comedy consulting firm to give us a review of our blog on the day of this important 50,000 hit milestone.  The following was what Ms. Liddlewitz had to say...
