So Sarah invites Staci and me to go with her, and some friends, to Zanies, for a showcase. It was my first time at the Chicago laugh stop and we had a great time! Those guys and gals on stage should get big props for getting out of their comfort zone in pursuit of their dream. Stand-up is hard. Trust me. I've tired it.

So we go to the packed show and then we skipped on down to FireSide where I enjoyed some great food, a cold beer and a fun chat with K-von. He's funny.

PS: Kvon just likes to go by Kvon. You know, no last name. Which is fine by me. (Although, I DO get him to spill it in the video.)
