Greetings from my friends’ wine store! Here are two recent articles about my artisanal pencil-sharpening business:

1. GOTHAMIST
2. NEW YORK OBSERVER

Please note: My pencil-sharpening book will be published in April. I hope you will buy it!

LOLLYGAGGIN’, the little comedy show that could, celebrates its first anniversary this Thursday!

Please join me for my annual performance review. Guests will include JOHN HODGMAN, EMMY BLOTNICK, and more!

information is included on this computer-flyer:

Hello! Remember when I was a political cartoonist, and then I quit? Well something made me annoyed enough to get back in the ol’ cartooning game: This crappy SOPA bill that’s being voted on and which could lead to China-style internet censorship here in America, the country we all love.

It makes me sad b/c even when I was a cartoonist making dirty jokes about Dick Cheney and how he’s a war criminal etc, I always knew nothing bad would happen to me — because we have freedom of expression, which is awesome — so when foreign journalists interviewing me about GYWO would ask, “So, has the government reached out to stop you?” I would always say, “I don’t know what it’s like in your country, but here in America we can say whatever the fuck we want and it’s beautiful.”

We gotta keep that! It’s important!

So anyway enough of my old-man ramblings. Here’s one of the comics … the rest are waiting for you at http://getyourcensoron.com/

Thanks — and please STOP SOPA!

Hi everybody! After taking November off, my monthly comedy show LOLLYGAGGIN’ is returning to the stage tomorrow (Thursday) night. Please celebrate the birth of December with me as I host STARLEE KINE (This American Life) and muckraking journalist MATT TAIBBI, who I will interview onstage re: what are banks and what is money.

All the information is contained in this flyer I made on my computer:

I interviewed a bunch of bands for CMJ. You can download their songs and my interrogations here.

Long-time readers will be familiar with my Guy Fieri obsession.

Mama mia, this is an amazing article about Guy Fieri:

“Guy will say whatever he needs to say to prop up his image of Guy as a really nice guy.”

Read it and weep onion rings!

Today is the tenth anniversary of Get Your War On!

Remember the good times here.

New York City friends: Take a break from occupying Wall Street to occupy Lollygaggin’ tonight! We have a bunch of wonderful guests including John Hodgman, Todd Hanson, and Kate Berlant! And it only costs $5.

I wrote the definitive essay about this vexing question.

It’s here. I kinda went a little crazy.
