Cogito, Ergo Sumana for 2002 November 26 (entry 2)

# 26 Nov 2002, 11:19PM: Went to the A Cuppa Tea comedy night, somewhat spontaneously decided to perform, and had a great time - possibly the best place I've ever performed, in terms of space, atmosphere, and people. Several people performed and all made at least minimal funny. The crowd is quite supportive, a community that encourages newcomers instead of excluding them. At least one audience member really liked my work, and others also complimented and clapped and laughed. (Re: that link; his main site with cool photos, a poem that made an especial impact on me because earlier today I reskimmed Divorce Your Car!.) Thanks to Zed, Seth, and Devin for encouraging me to perform.

The aforementioned Joe also told me about this freaky & incomplete table of area comedy open mics and comedy shows, Zed.

Oh, and by the way, Joe, as Mark Twain said, I can last on a good compliment for three weeks; thanks.
