I Believe . . .0

. . . That in order to even begin to understand the art of improv, one must first understand the following things:

1. That it is, in fact, an art.
2. That it is not a form of comedy – that the funny will come, but only if the real comes first. Good improv is funny, but it’s also sad, tender, sweet, angry, frustrating, tense, and sometimes very uncomfortable. Good improv is a reflection of real life.
3. That we do it everyday. Every one of us. All the time.

. . . That in order to understand the art of DADA, at least the performance aspect of it, one must first take everything they know about acting and throw it away – or, rather, set it aside.

. . . That George W. Bush was a bad president, but he was never a bad man – at least not intentionally. He just wasn’t very smart, and because of that, he was easily influenced by the forces around him — like Dick Cheney, the darkest of them all, who was (and still is) a bad man. One might even go so far as to call him evil.

. . . That, despite the fact that Barack Obama hasn’t exactly delivered on his promise to clean up Washington, he is a good president – and could be great. . . if he would just stop trying to please everybody.

. . . That being a parent is hard, but as long as your kids know you love them, they’re going to be just fine.

. . . That I’m going to go sit in the recliner and have a snooze.

I love you.
