• Amie Elyn - Iron Artist Parts 1 and 2
  
  [Iron Artist. I thought this was a clever idea. I wish it hadn't taken up two slots. Other than that, it was kick ass. What's funny is that the artists aren't just making art. They are also performing. So little bits like Jobber's hammer evaluation are just plain great. And I realize it took Jericho a little while to get going, but everything he did and said was funny. Next time, I would love to see this thing done within 5 minutes. Not sure if that's possible. But ten minutes just felt way too long.]
• Alexandra - The Mad Raver
  
  [Mad Raver. This woman cracks me up. Both this piece and the Too Much Coffee Girl from a little while back are just these delightful, insane periods of chaos that I can't make any sense of whatsoever. But she's so damn enthusiastic. I love it. So whatever this is, keep doing it. But I have no idea what the hell's going on.]
• Tommy - Ego
  
  [Tommy's Pussy Thing. After all that buildup, I expected something big. So I'm glad the delivery was small. But then it took a long time. And there was a lot of silence. And he didn't say anything new after a while. And I was already annoyed at the overabundance of low-level woman-bashing going on that night. So I felt sort of like I didn't know what was happening.]
• Dave - song about older women
  
  [The Old Lady Song. I thought this was funny because I totally bought the fact that he loves older women. But then my girlfriend brought up the fact that she thought it was totally offensive. It's her opinion that the song is so funny only because it's so outlandish. OF COURSE no one would want to fuck an old lady! They're ugly and disgusting creatures! That's what this guy is saying! So, I don't know where I stand on this one. But I like the way the guy sings.]
• Siobhan McKenney - monologue
  
  [Siobhan. Though I made peace with her, I think I secretly wanted to hate this piece. I'm both happy and sad to say that I loved it. Great writing, great delivery, lots of fun. My only criticism is that it ran a little long. Not saying it went over 5 minutes. I just think that around the 3Ú4 mark, she stopped saying anything new. But goddamn, this piece was funny.]
• Shannon McCormick - The Sauce
  
  [The Sauce. I likes 'em short and sweet, like this one. Madeline's cameo was perfect. The whole concept was great. Nice tie-in with the Robot Girl thing later. All in all, very well done.]
• R. Eirik Ott - poem/list
  
  [The Wal-Mart receipt. Holy fucking shit! This was the best thing I saw ALL NIGHT! Holy shit! Who is this guy? ROCK!!!]
• Hung Nguyen - Snake Video
  
  [Hung's Snake Video. Jesus god. I almost walked out when I saw the snake head. But then I used that impulse as the reason why I needed to stay. Ultimately, I am happy I stayed. It was such an interesting, unedited glimpse into another culture. I need to see more of this kind of thing. But I wish it had not been the last piece of the evening. I left feeling more than a little disturbed.]
• Jessy Schwartz - The cell phone thing with Yasmine and Jessy
  
  [The Cell Phone bit. Yasmin totally sold her realization that the ringing phone was her own. I completely bought it. That's what makes her so much to watch on stage. She is one of the most natural talents I have seen. Jessy's Òdad has cancerÓ insistence on staying in character even though the scene was broken was too goddamn funny. Those two moments made this piece as fun as it was. But I didn't like the ending. One, it was sort of expected, and two, it didn't make any sense. How could it have been Jessy who called? Yasmin was talking to the person on the other end of the phone earlier. So, my Wanton Displacement of Reality or Suspension of Disbelief or whatever you call it didn't hold out for that last bit.]
• Shannon McCormick - The Dancing Female Robots Present: The Big Adventure at the Side of the Cliff; or You Ever Heard of a Moebius Strip?
  
  [The Robot Girls. I loved the robot girls. Clee-yoff. This was a whole hell of a lot of fun. I love the idea that the performers are trapped by the script and that even their dissent and rebellion is controlled by the script. Everyone involved in this thing was fun to watch. I loved every bit of it.]
• Smarty and Dena - Laverne and Shirley dance
  
  [Laverne and Shirley. I was immediately turned off by the fact that the woman in this piece snapped at the light booth operator. That pissed me off. So by the time I stopped being pissed off the piece was over. But I like Marty Pants, or whatever the hell his name is.]
• The Bru-La-La piece (or whatever it was called)
  [Balulu (sp). Again, love this guy's writing. And his delivery makes it all the more entertaining. Write a fucking book, man! I will buy THREE copies!]
• Taylor Maddux - opera thing
  
  [Taylor's opera thing. I loved watching Taylor do this, though I started looking out for something new after the third song. When nothing new showed up, I was only moderately disappointed. The piece was well performed and a lot of fun to watch.]
• Andy and Bonnie - Little Girl from Little Rock
  
  [The Marilyn Monroe Dance. I was just confused. Did they really start over? Did Andy really just walk off the stage? Was that scripted? If so, it just felt weird. If not, then what the hell?]
• Aaron Taylor - Mod Zombie
  
  [Mod Zombie. Again, Yasmin kicks ASS. This was such a believable, natural portrayal of an asshole, over-confident, womanizing, shitbird man. She nailed this part. And the fucking singing at the end was GREAT. Also loved the mustache bit.]
• That poor substitute teacher guy.
  
  [Substitute Teacher Stand-Up Guy. Everything he did was funny, but none of it made me laugh out loud. And it didn't go anywhere. Which I guess it's not supposed to, since it's a stand-up bit. But it took me a moment to realize that's what it was. The subtle child molestation hints were just creepy enough to be really funny.]
