Mango Slice

Well, my Shaq Rap Kobe Tell Them How My Ass Tastes Video Spoof was a success.

Seen over 5,000 times in just one day, and picked up by a few major sports blogs made me happy.

What didn’t make me as happy, was the fact that my blood sugar was 130.

Now, in reality it is not that bad, but since I was on a two day down swing, I was hoping it would stay down.

Mango Slice.

Not sure why that popped into my head, but I really really want one.

Unfortunately with diabetes, a mango slice is like a kiss of death.

I can eat apples, strawberries, oranges (with nuts), but surprisingly no grapefruits.

And of course, no Mango Slice.

So frustrating.

Because I want it, but can’t have it.

Like tonight, I went to the Comedy Store because I was supposed to go on.

When I got there, I met up with Vicki Barbolak who had arranged the whole thing.

We talked in the green room as she did her hair and nails, unfortunately as I was outside talking with Guam Felix, Comedian Joe Charles and a few others, I got the bad news.

There were too many people on the show and I couldn’t go on.

Vicki was a saint and tried to ask if I could split her time with her, but they said no.

It’s ok.

Just like the mango slice, sometimes you want something and you can’t have it.

Now, when I want something sweet, I just eat something else, or I just watch something sweet.

Instead of going on stage tonight, I made a video.

It’s both sweet, sexy and more people have seen it then I would have performed for onstage.

Regardless.

I was kind of sick today.

My throat was killing me and I had a fever.

So after sleeping late, I headed off to Hebrew School.

I know I shouldn’t have gotten out of bed, but I didn’t want to stick them with a sub.

Anyway afterwards, I came home, changed and went to a BBQ.

Healthy right?

It wasn’t just any BBQ though.

My old friends Guam Felix and Joe Charles were there.

We BBQ’ed rib eyes, made string beans and then had three pieces of cake for dessert.

(you didn’t really think that I was turning vegan did you? — APRIL FOOLS)

After that we watched a movie.

Something with Will Smith and him being the last person on earth.

Oh yeah, he fights zombies.

It was alright, but the real fun was sitting with two other great comics and clowning on teh whoel movie.

I can’t repeat what was said.

But, let me tell you that I am still laughing about it.

Now I am home, took some medicine and hopefully will feel better.

Shorty comes home tomorrow.

Yeah…..

It was my birthday.

I woke up to fresh Dunkin Donuts coffee and dark chocolate.

No brisket today.

There was a party to be had.

A nice 40 minute drive north and I was working on 3 computers at once.

I love doing it, but the treat was when lunch was served.

Chicken taquitos, chicken nuggets and apple slices.

The apples threw me off, but believe me they were a nice touch.

After lunch, I returned to fixing.

About an hour later I was handed a milkshake made of Butterfinger ice cream.

Can you say it’s going to be a great year?

So I finish and drive South.

There was a party and I was the guest of honor.

The guest list was a little eclectic, being that there were religious Jews, Mormons and comedians attending.

The religious Jews were going to bring their own grill and somehow this was all going to work out.

Well, people started arriving and the first round of food was served.

My phone rang and it was the Jews.

I met them outside to help them carry in the grill, when I was greeted by a bucket, charcoal and chicken wire.

No, this isn’t a set up to a joke.

This was their grill.

So, I take it upstairs and decide that it probably is not a good idea to set this mettle bucket on a wooden balcony.

“I know!”

“I will put it on carpet,” I thought to myself.

I mean come on.

Carpet as we all know isn’t flammable right?

So, as i made the kabobs and chicken.

As we ate salad, potatoes, chips, salsa and veggies, we all dint notice the smoke.

I mean it was a BBQ right?

Wrong.

How in the hell did I manage to set a balcony on fire?

Not once but twice?

How did Steph not cancel the party and tell us all to get the hell out?

These are mysteries we can all ponder.

But in the end it was great.

I spend my birthday just as I wanted to.

With friends.

It was amazing and if I am lucky enough to spend every birthday with these great people I will be honored.

Then came the cake.

Then came the brownies.

Then came the macaroons.

And when they finally came for me…there was no one left.

Thanks to: Steph, Hanina, Emanuel, Jessica, Jessica, Tim, Old Roy, Mike, Guam, Brad, Ella, Avrum, Mike, Joe, Vicki & Lou for making this a great night!

I am tired.

It’s 4 AM and I just got home.

Yes, it was another late night BBQ session with Joe Charles.

Of course there was turkey involved.

Maybe even some mashed potatoes.

I mean potato salad.

But, whatever food may or may not have been consumed, that’s not the point.

The issue here is, that I was able to put on a great comedy show.

Mike Vinn, Old Roy, Matt Zint, Jessica Kook, Tim Palmer, Jacob Goldstein & Joe Charles made tonight a dream come true.

Well, sort of.

Growing up, I am sure I never said to myself that I wanted to have my own comedy night in San Diego.

I am positive that I never dreamed I would be producing a show.

However, that’s what I did.

Part of putting on a show is knowing what you don’t know.

That’s why I had Jacob.

We built a stage.

Put up a sound system.

The key was promotion and booking.

That’s what I am good at.

50 people showed up.

Not bad for a Jew from Philly.

The day started off good.

Lunch with the rabbi.

Setting up the stage.

Getting a call from a Hollywood director asking me to write with him.

Talking to a bunch of great people.

And oh yeah, doing a ten minute set and having people enjoy my comedy.

The late night BBQ really sealed the deal though.

Looking forward to many many more.

I can’t believe I pulled this off.

Joe Charles, Tim Palmer, Jessica Kook, Old Roy, Matt Zint.

They are all coming to the debut of Fat Jewish Comedy on Wednesday at the Egyptian Tea Room.

It’s gonna be a great show.

We Built a stage, have a PA system, a banner and I am just excited.

So excited in fact that I am at the Tea Room right now getting some final touches ready.

On a different note, I ate something great today.

I took hot fudge and put them in a corn tortilla.

It was truly heaven on earth.

Well, almost bedtime.

Please come out tomorrow.
