Just Announced: Superbest at the NCCAF

Superbest has been accepted to the 2009 North Carolina Comedy Arts Festival! We're pumped. The name may have changed, but last year's fest was a blast... we're already looking forward to TimeOut chicken and biscuits at 3AM. Tasty.

Look for the show in Carborro during the weekend of February 20-22, and stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks.

Our Ranks Expand...

...though I guess it might be an exaggeration to refer to an increase from three to four as "ranks". It's more like a pod. The point is that three of us 360-owning dudes pitched in with Mike's wife and bought him a 360 for his birthday. I'm always surprised when I'm reminded how a small group of people can pool their resources and go out and get someone a really cool gift. I guess it just doesn't happen that often.

I find the Hobbit Birthday concept really appealing -- on your birthday you buy a gift for everyone you know rather than the other way around, so if you have a good set of Hobbit friends you get a pretty steady stream of gifts through the year. That spirit struck me one day a few years ago at work when our building was shut down due to a fire emergency. My team was released early and went and celebrated with some drinks at a local restaurant bar. I was feeling generous because I'd recently become debt-free for the first time since college so I offered to pick up the whole tab. We agreed that we'd do it again and some one else would get it next time.

That was probably eight years ago. I haven't been out drinking with my team since. Jerks.

Oh, it's Go Time...

Hey there. Welcome to our website. This is the space where we write stuff and you, presumably, read stuff.

Following our visit to the Richmond Improv Festival this past weekend, we thought it was time to get online and connect with some like-minded folks. Presumably, like you.

There's not much to say at the moment other than thanks to everyone who made the trip down to Cap City VA such a good time... we met some very cool people, saw some very funny shows and ate some very tasty food. All in all, a great weekend.

Check back soon and often for show info, random thoughts and all kinds of ridiculousness. Presumably.
