Why Do I Even Dare To Think

People Do Need A Social License To Go, "ha Ha Ha," And Have A Good Time. It's A Strange Thing. There's A Lot Of Social Ritual Around Comedy And Laughter. It's A Bonding Experience For Groups, But Nobody Can Tell You Much About How Funny Somebody Is. Sometimes People Just Need To Be In A Group And Be Laughing Together, Just Like They Need To Be In A Group In Watching Some Really Terrifying Film.

You Know, People Sometimes Say To Me, 'do You Prefer To Do This Or That, Act Or Do Stand-up Or Write' But The Thing That I Enjoy Most Is The Difference Between All Of Them, Because You're Always Learning. I Don't Go Around Thinking Of Myself As A Great Anything. I'm Actually Lucky To Have The Chance To Fail At All Of Them.

I Used To Live With Two Other Guys. We Used To Cook Two Things. The First One Was Called 'cheese... Thing' And That Was Where You Get Something And You Melt Cheese Over It And The First One To Guess What It Is Doesn't Have To Wash Up. That's Obviously Quite Mediterranean; The Other One Was Less Complex. It Was Just Called 'cheese Fantasy.' That's Where You Come In, Very Drunk, At About Five In The Morning And Find An Apple And Just Pretend There's Some Cheese On It.

When Things Are Going Well, I Can't Write Fast Enough To Keep Up With My Mind. Writing Walks, Speech Runs And Talk Flies. Other Times, Though, It's Like Fishing.

I Love Playing In America. I Feel Having Been There A Few Times That I "get" America A Lot More Than I Used To. It Used To Be So Strange To Me. It Takes Years To Learn How To Separate The Actual, Major, Important Differences From The Superficial Differences That Aren't Essential Or Crucial.
