I've Been At Stand-up 26 Years Now:

I Think Of My Body As A Temple. Or At Least A Relatively Well-managed Presbyterian Youth Center.

I Always Wanted A Beautiful Loving Wife And She Always Wanted To Be A Citizen.

I Think Of People As Members Of An Audience. But An Audience Acts Independently Of Every Individual. It's An Organism On Its Own. I Focus On That Living Hydra In The Dark.

So I'm At The Wailing Wall, Standing There Like A Moron, With My Harpoon.

When Deciding Between Two Competing Theories, Always Go With The One That Doesn't Involve A Magic Spell.
