Fluff

I’d ask for forgiveness, but I suspect no one really cares. If you’ve had enough with my useless excuses, stop reading now. The rest of this post is full of excuses.

Firstly, as you may or may not know, I was struck by lightning last week. Okay, that is a bit of a stretch. The tree in front of my house was struck by lightning, causing the surge of mother nature’s electrical syrup to run through the cables and wires of my home rendering both my TV and computer useless. I wasn’t able to watch the episode two weeks ago, and all I could report would be from the NBC website. Having read that site at work the following day, I realized they reported the events better than I could, and they included links.

Secondly, I have no idea what they are doing now. I figured the episode I missed was the big finale, and that we would vote and then they would announce a winner. Not so. Apparently, the people voted, and four comedians continued, but Roz went home. Glad she enjoyed her experience. I can’t say I enjoyed her comedy. Not my kind of funny, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be yours. Support Roz online by visiting her Comedy Central website.

Thirdly, I have to blame myself. Two weeks ago I complained that the show was more Dramedy and not enough comedy. Producers must have heard what I said and have focused solely on the comedy now. I’m not going to be one to repost the funniest jokes of the night either. Stand-up comedy is best when experienced live, in the moment, feeding from an audience. It does not translate well into the written word. And since there is no “house” stuff, or challenges, I suppose I have nothing more to report?

Now we’ll get the latest round or rounds out of the way. I suppose we are going to vote, and then perhaps vote again, before Chris Porter wins.

And Chris Porter will win. I’ll report back once the final finale has aired. Enjoy the jokes.
