| This is the kind of gift that women ooh and ahh over at baby showers |
Okay, so you're ordering a beer and say you want a "Bud". I've got nothing against people wanting to pay $5 for a 16 oz glass of water, but that's why people order Pellegrinos because it sounds better and fancier. Does anyone want a baseball commissioner named Bud? And who would want to live in Bud, Wisconsin? If I lived there, I might gather the required 2000 signatures to put a name change of Lake Meadows on the ballot in the fall.
In response to today's gift, give me a tree vase or flower pot. But none of this bud vase garbage.

| Looks like the guy in the background should be doing sit-down comedy... and choosing another pant color. |
-Profession: Stand-up Comedian; Patient Advocate
-Favorite kind of bear: Black bear
-What kind of people call California 'Cali'?: Douche bags. Some people when they hear my name say, "oh, yeah, like the state, huh?". Some guy last year made up a song to Katy Perry's California song using my name in the lyrics. Yeah...
-What would sit-down comedy be like?: More like story-telling, which is what I like to do. Interestingly, I don't like to stand in other contexts--for instance, waiting in line. I wouldn't give my seat up on the bus because I dislike standing that much.
-When you knit someone a scarf, do you choose wool to keep the person's neck warm or do you avoid wool so the wearer is less itchy?: I use the cheapest wool, so they're itchy. I put in weeks of time knitting a scarf, so I hope they like me enough to put up with some itching.
