Hi loverpants,Just got home today from Spring Break in Palm Springs, CA. Man, I love California. The winter here in Cowtown had been slowly making me a depressed, unmoving, slightly-reclusive COUCH BLOB and I didn’t realize it until I started de-blobbing in Cali (that’s how the gangstas say it, yo). It is really easy to stay on a couch under … Read More

Hi loveheads, Me : : Bobscratch Goldfarb 1. It’s almost Spring Break. This winter has felt like a marathon in several ways although that’s not meant to sound negative. For the first two or three days of Spring Break, I plan to lay limply, watch clouds, drink coffee and lapse into sleep several times a day. After that, who knows? … Read More
* NO THANKS. I’D RATHER DRIVE *
I’m ready for a road trip. Last week, I treated myself by flying up north for a gig using my Airmiles. Why I thought flying Air Canada was a “treat” I will never know. Dear lord, how I wish the Westjet employees would start a mentorship program for the Air Canada employees. Jeff Toth : Chris Gordon : Ian Wallace … Read More

* COMEDY FAMILY *
I love my comedy family. On Thursday, a pile of us showcased for “Comedy Now” and everybody did such an amazing job. The best part of the night was the feeling of family, support, camaraderie and friendship. I adore what we have here as fellow comedians. Then last night, another pile of us went to Yuk Yuks to watch a … Read More

* LOOK, MA! I WROTE AN ARTICLE! *
Yeah, yeah, it’s not the cover of the Rolling Stone, but it was fun to write and like most attention-seekers, I do so enjoy seeing my name in print. Have a read, won’t you? “Toddlers & Tiaras” kids in the future – It Ain’t Pretty”
* LIKE, REAL MATURE! *
So, I have an isssssue. I like to say it with a long “S” because it sounds more amusing. There are a couple of amateur comedians in the scene these days who, shall we say, are more than enthusiastic. Normally, I adore enthusiasm. One of my favourite quotes is: “Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” – Walter Chrysler But … Read More
