This one isn't very funny
-Updates
I just got a new laptop that is a monster. So, I will be able to update my blog much more frequently. Over the past few months, I've only been able to do it from home. Because of this, I have a few new website features planned, including videos and drawing contests... you'll see what I'm talking about in a few days.
I had a good week of shows in NYC over past few days. On Sunday, I was at Caroline's with Bill Burr. Great show. Bill Burr has to be the best comic working today. He's unbelievable and he did about 40 minutes of material that was written in the last 4 months. Check out his myspace page. It contains a video of an Opie and Anthony sponsored show he did in Philadelphia. The crowd was full of idiots and he yelled at them for 10-12 minutes without stopping. http://www.myspace.com/billburr
After the Burr show, I was at the Comedy Cellar in what would be two nights in a row at the famous club. That club is amazing. If you're in New York, go there.
On Tuesday, I have an audition for the Aspen Comedy Festival at the New York Improv. I made it to the final stages of the Montreal auditions a few months ago. At the time, I had no idea how to do audition sets. I think I have it figured out now though. So, I'm pretty optimistic about this show. Doing a lot of shows in NYC has helped me tighten all of my material.
I won Week 2 of my Fantasy Football league. I needed the Jaguars to shutout the Steelers, and they did. Hooray. Hasidic Piss is 1-1, and plans on taking down The Karen McDougal Sweepstakes this week. I realize that no one cares about this.
I'm working on a lot of new jokes and re-writing some old ones now. I think they're funny. People who've been at Dr. Dremos over the past two months would not agree.
-Now, onto funny/hopefully funny stuff.
Last weekend, my youngest brother, who is 10, was talking about my cousin's recent trip to Asia. This brother is really funny. Every day he says something hilarious, on accident. Two previous statements were:
“If you keep calling me a snitch, I'm telling mom.”
and
My mom was telling someone that they were going to L.A. for something. And he said, “I thought you said we're going to California.” My mom said, “We'll go there too.”
Last weekend, while he was talking about my cousin's trip to Asia and the things that he brought back, he said, “Chandler (my cousin) got a samurai night gown.”
I said, “What? Samurai's don't wear night gowns. What are you talking about?”
“Uh huh. It's a samurai night gown.” Then he referenced a cartoon that I've never heard of.
Then my mom said, “It's a silk bath robe. It has nothing to do with samurais. He keeps calling it that for some reason.”
I want to know where he came up with that term.
-I put a video up on my myspace page. It's kind of old, and I don't really like it, but I needed to put something up.
-Open letter to the comic who performed at Topaz two weeks ago,
I'm sorry about what I previously wrote. It sounded like you were insulting me, but what you said in the comment makes sense. I apologize. Also, your set wasn't actually awkward. I was kidding about that and assumed you didn't read this, and no one would know who I was talking about.
It's about a different person who was there on the same night, but read Joe Robinson's blog about the nasty woman with the see-through shirt at http://www.joerobinsoncomedy.com

ouch.
maybe they said it was awkward because you walked by so quickly and didn't really respond. perhaps they were truly trying to give you a compliment. and there might be a chance they have seen you preform before and think you are really funny and have been too shy to say anything before. just another possibility....
