Last Saturday I had the honor of playing the local "pie shop" in the town that I live. Marie Calendars (famous pie hut) has been doing comedy in their bar for going on 15 years. The pay in a place like that, as I'm sure you can imagine, is bolstered heavily by pie. One free pie per performance. Thankfully the type of pie you get does not relate in any way to the type of performance you give.
There was once a time early in the relationship between pie and comedy, when a person who stopped telling good jokes got hit in the face with a pie. Times have changed. In the new millennium those who stop eating good pie get hit in the face with jokes. I know. I did the joke throwing.
Well I got my Friday pie and my Sat pie and the other comic gave me his Sat pie which left me with three pies and one face.
A special thank you to all those who came out to my driveway Sunday afternoon for my pie party. Oh and to the 10s and 10s of my la supporters who braved the mean streets of whiteville for Collin Moulton's hot humor pie!
Thank you neighbors and thank you pie!
