Who Am I?

I have no idea. But here’s what I got off AltaVista: Apparently after doing years of standup comedy in the team Lank and Earl, I became a writer/performer for The Daily Show on Comedy Central, Marc Maron's Morning Sedition on Air America Radio, WTF with Marc Maron, National Lampoon's Final Edition, and then I quit the Jimmy Dore Show in disgust. Emmy and Peabody awards were apparently obtained during this process as well.

What is this?

In addition to writing mocking obituaries about real people, I also like to spew ill-informed nonsense about current events, stupid and horrific. That’s what this is. Subscribe now so you’ll miss none of my scribblings about nothing and everything!

"THERE IS NOTHING FUNNIER THAN WRONG WHEN IT IS DONE RIGHT.” — Marc Maron

“ACCUSING, WIELDING HONESTY LIKE A CUDGEL. A TERRIFYING, UNCOMPROMISING DARK, DARK SOUL WHO IS BASICALLY RIGHT. RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT. EVEN WHEN HE MAKES YOU SQUIRM. I BELIEVE IN JIM EARL, I LOVE THIS GUY.” — Rachel Maddow

“THERE ARE NOT MANY WRITERS I RECOMMEND MORE THAN, WELL, ME. JIM EARL IS ALMOST ALL OF THEM.” — Jonathan Larsen, vet of The Daily Show, MSNBC

“IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT HERE YOU CAN ALWAYS GO JOIN THE GHOST OF JIM EARL!” — Jon Stewart, Death to Smoochy
