My stand-up comedy is in the gestation period and my friends are expressing their
belief in me by lathering me with advice.Mind you these are people who have never been on stage and are afraid to enter a party a lone.
The advice range from the physical to the verbal. Physical directions: move your arms, stand completely still, do not touch the mic, roll your eyes, loosen up, limit your facial expressions, would eject from my comedy guides like tennis balls from a ball machine. Verbal directions are: blurt out curse words, do not curse,just talk
unrehearsed, compare vegans and meat-eaters in a bit, would leave me a little tongue-
tied.
Invariably, my friends complete each strategy session advising me to be myself.
