Disclaimer

On January 1, 2009, I started an experiment to write one new joke every day for at least one year. As 2009 rolled forward, the universe proceeded to deal me a series of events that left me with no lack of inspiration for new material. Most of these jokes have found their way into my on-stage routine, and most of them have become staples of my act.

Now that I have made it through my first year, my focus has shifted from quantity to quality. I still update with new jokes, just not on my original every frickin' day deadline. Please feel free to grade these jokes, and heckle them. If a joke gets heckled enough, I will go back and make them better. I want to make sure my audience gets their money's worth, even though this is a free service.

Surprised the Air Marshal wasn't doing shots with me

Today is the eighth anniversary of the last time I was on an airplane. Yep, nine days after 9/11. All the magazines in the newsstand had that shot of the plane hitting the second tower. Everyone around me was scared shitless, and it was the night they had that big telethon. The worst part was the two guys seated behind me on the flight who wouldn't shut up about how easy it was for the hijackers to take over the planes. If it wasn't for alcohol service on the flight, I would've had a Shatner on the Twilight Zone level freakout.
