Posted a couple new videos of me doing stand up. This one is about guns, shootings, and showdowns.
Such a well crafted bit.

This week I checked out Silverlake Wines’s weekly Thursday night tasting. Wine tastings are great because they elevate basic drinking to “engaging in an activity,” “completing a task,” and “learning something new.” Rarely does drinking make you feel good about yourself, but wine tastings always make you feel just the right amount of superior like when you read all the little cards at a museum exhibit or listen to any genre of music that doesn’t have lyrics. Also, you can bring your kids to wine tastings! There were a few kids hanging out with their moms while they cracked open a bottle with friends. If you bring your kid to a regular bar, you’re degenerate but if you bring your kid to a wine tasting, then you’re the cool parent that let’s your kid get a glimpse of adult sophistication. You can buy your kid a hot dog at the Let’s Be Frank Hot Dog Truck parked outside while you shake off your Chianti buzz.
Silverlake Wine is a gorgeous store. The layout is spacious, clean and simple. The staff is extremely friendly and filled to the brim with cute boys. This week’s tasting featured a flight of Italian Reds and French Roses. I hit the Rose flight and learned something about grape skin color that I unfortunately can’t remember now, but appreciate the lesson. Many have grown up watching some crazy aunt swill down a jug of room temperature White Zinfindel during the holidays and have since sworn off the stuff. Randy Clement, manger at Silver Lake Wines confirmed Rose is in fact “cool and here to stay!” I wonder if we can still be snotty about Merlot?
Silver Lake Wines is located at 2395 Glendale Boulevard Los Angeles, CA 90039. Check out their website for a complete listing of weekly tastings and events and to join their mailing list. You can also find Silver Lake Wines on Twitter and Facebook.
