Adam Cole-Kelly presents: Believe the Hyphen

I have a hyphenated last name that I've used as the basis for the name of my blog which in and of itself is a play on words. Clever's got a new home folks. Make yourselves comfortable.

Magnetic Strip Tease

I think ATM's have been around long enough that the diagrams that instruct you as to how you are supposed to swipe your card through should be less confusing. Can't they all be uniform? You should never have to do an upside down backhand swipe that's only a fluid motion for a handful of expert ultimate frisbee players. I realize that the slot option presents the danger of you forgetting your card and having it swallowed by the machine, but I'd rather have that happen than suffer the humiliation of feebly swiping again and again like a luggage toting midwestern tourist trying to pass through the New York subway turnstile.

I'm going to pace nervously for a couple of hours now so that tonight at my show I can appear to be at ease. If you want to see if I'm able to conceal my anxiety or you just want to see a group of very talented comedians and me, here is the info: www.eatingit.com

The least you can do is factor the content of people's character into your judgments of them today.

Maybe to calm your nerves you should make everyone you know there buy you a drink, then you won't be nervous at all. I'll start, just ask. Since I don't really drink any more, it's fun for me to watch other people get drunk. Or after your set would work too.
