An addendum to First sketches
Might have started the class end of 2005 because I wrote this EIC sketch first week of 2006. Either way I just found the actual first sketch i have saved on my hard drive, from september of 2005. I think I had written some various ideas when I was doing improv and tried to start a sketch group that never panned out (one idea i still like a lot)
It is simply called Doctor Sketch, I only wrote 2...
First sketches
going with my reblog of Celeste’s post. Yeah. 11 pages. That is pure Sketch 101. If i see a 5 page sketch, including my own, my first thought is “lets cut something immediately”. because it is just not going to work. I took my first sketch class in 2006 I believe. I hadn’t taken any classes at UCB since 2003 when i took my last improv class. It was with Chris Kula in the...

every time I’m home I end up going through my drawers and closets but not looking for anything specific. i find all kind of gems, but tonight i found the sketches from my very first UCB class.
It was Sketch 101 in LA and I took in summer 2005, the first summer UCB was open.
The crazy thing is some of our sketches were 11 pages long. That’s insane. Sketches at 5 pages these days make me...
So cool looking.

Ditto on all of this. In the almost 3 years of being on Maude Teams, after not being involved with the theatre since around 2003, Nate has been the person I have worked the longest with in and out of Maude, on various things. And there is a reason. Basically summed up below by Frusciante. That and I have a black soul that Nate both suppresses and encourages.And I am envious of Badman because...
Break Up Your Band: Non-90s-Music-Related Post →
During the past three or so years of being lucky enough to be back on UCBT’s Harold Night, there’s one person who has constantly pushed me to be a better player while at the same time reminding me to not take myself too seriously. Any time I got too busy fuming about how, “We’ve gotta get…
Really into this sketch.

Chris Kula wrote an awesome/hilarious sketch starring the amazing Ty Burrell (Modern Family). It’s about the guy that writes all those insane rants that athletes go on (i.e. Mike Tyson’s classic “I’ll fuck you till you love me, faggot”). Check it out!

– Story from a message board, where people were talking about mid 90’s hardcore. This story makes me laugh so hard everytime. The whole world of ubersincere D.I.Y. hardcore was so ridiculous some times. And now those dudes are in a band called Facedowninshit
One more Slow Burn sketch. Written by Molest Mallard. Check out who is giving the titular blackout line. Emphesis on the Ular….wait I mean Tit. DAMMIT!!!
Another sketch from this Slow Burn show. Written by Edgy Brawley. You can watch me sit and react in this one and think to yourself “Why is Garlock such a hunchback and why is his hair so big?”
Here is the latest sketch I wrote for my Maude team Slow Burn at Upright Citizens Brigade. It is called “Divorced Skiier’s Mother”. Catchy title right?
Starring Terry Withers and Corey Johnson.
Directed by the incomperable Mike Still and Nate Smith.
I like writing sketches with lots and lots of dialogue.

saw this on suicidewatch tumblr. Type in a tumblr blog and see all their images on one page. I think if you wanted to sum up me, you just take a look at all my pictures. Pretty much sums it all up.
