Me in Paris

So, things have been really crazy lately. And no, by crazy I don’t mean incarceration or prison shower love scenes.

My schedule has gotten so full that I have, at times, neglected you.

Here’s what my plate looks like and how I am going to solve it…

MY PLATE

Be good to my family

Write rant for Corey and Jay Show (www.coreyandjayshow.com)

Promote upcoming shows

Perform at Anger Mis-Management Comedy Tour Dates (www.angrycomedy.com)

Write new stand up material

Manage website, update facebook and myspace (www.angrypatrick.com)

Learn lines for movie # 1 – Tuckerman (www.independentguerilla.com)

Learn lines for movie # 2 – Drain (http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=96126463550)

Write and direct music video for Finding Jimmy Hoffa (http://www.myspace.com/findingjimmyhoffaband)

Work on the 2010 Arkansas’ Funniest Person Contest  (www.syncweekly.com/arfunnyperson)

(which will be at Electric Cowboy this year so we can seat everyone and not turn people away! AND….we are gonna have some BIG TIME COMEDIANS as judges and performers in some shows!

Work on the as yet unnamed benefit festival concert lineup for Within R.E.A.C.H. which benefits homeless youth in Saline County. This is gonna be a HUUUUGGGGGEEE event at the Saline County Fairgrounds and will have a lot of family activities and music all day long and at night it will be one BAD ASS ROCK CONCERT! HARD ROCK!  Did I mention it will be on Halloween? Oct 31, 2009

Book other upcoming comedy shows (like July 25th when Keith Terry (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2464063305431831935) comes to town. That dude is the real deal. He’s been opening for Michael Buble on tour. This cat is so good that I’M opening for him! )

That doesn’t even count things like eating and hanging the occasional monkey tail.

So, to the solution…

From time to time when I am overloaded and cannot be here, I will unleash Matthew Baker, Esquire upon you.  It is with great shame and head hanging I bring him into your life and yet, strangely, I feel so good about it. If you wanna see his style before he starts popping in here and there, go to www.esquireonline.net

Meanwhile, I will be working hard to keep my smart assery here on a daily basis and thanks for your angry love!

Patrick

Hey buddy, got a dollar?

Ok, how scared can I be when Wolverine in a  Will Ferrell mask comes up behind me? What the hell is happening to Michael Myers? Hey, it’s like Bill Clinton said, “It’s the economy, stupid!” Obviously, Michael has been laid off from his part time job as a tax accountant and just can’t afford a new mask. And what’s up with the hoodie thing? Isn’t that like so 5 years and Green Day ago?

If this dude walked up to me I wouldn’t panic and run, I’d fish a couple bucks out of my pocket and tell him about the Salvation Army Mission a few blocks away.  And if he pulled out a giant knife I wouldn’t think he was trying to kill me, just pawn some stolen silverware, in which case, if it was in good condition, I might pull out a fiver because it would probably be good for Thanksgiving.

Out of style and broke. Being a serial killer just ain’t what it used to be, huh?
