musical comedy window
I first did stand-up when I was 17, and then I passed out fliers for a comedy club (in New York City) and I got onstage whenever I could. And musical theater went out the window as soon as I started doing stand-up.
fun crazy comedian
We live in a fun time with so many ways to express yourself, you would be crazy to be a comedian and not check them all out.
exactly filled joke journal life notebooks
My comedy notebooks are filled with random journal entries. It's all the same. I can look back on old joke notebooks, and know exactly what was going on in my life.
inability alive
Your inability to see yourself clearly is what's keeping you alive.
i-can
I have no religion. But culturally I can't escape it; I'm very Jewish.
funny believe people
Everybody blames the Jews for killing Christ, and the Jews try to pass it off on the Romans. I'm one of the few people who believes it was the blacks.
funny baby children
Since so many people these days don't seem to start their families until around age forty, I predict there will be less child beating, but more slipped disks from lifting babies out of cribs. Even the father of advanced age who's not inclined to spare the rod is likely to suffer more than his victim: The first punch he throws might well be the last straw for his rotator cuff, reducing his disciplinary options to mere verbal abuse and napping.
black-and-white feelings would-be
Relations between black and white would be greatly improved if we were more accepting of our fears and our feelings and more vocal about it.
funny jesus wine
Jesus is magic, because he turned water into wine. I think he made the statue of liberty disappear in the 80s or something.
faces teeth brushes
I'm a very ritualistic person. I have to wash my face twice, and on the second wash before I rinse, I brush my teeth, then I rinse, then I floss, then I put on moisturizer. I'm ritualistic. Jewishness is very ritualistic.
funny girl doctors
I was raped by a doctor. Which is, you know, so bittersweet for a Jewish girl.
funny humor heart
I looked up and saw the shape of a heart made by the silhouette of Ben Affleck and Matt Damon kissing.
there-is-no-god
[I'm] almost positive there is no God.
mirrors mind looks
One of the greatest things my therapist said to me ... and it really blew my mind in the greatest way, he just said, "Look in the mirror less."
