I was thinking this earlier:
I find it very fascinating that we have this energy-charged show going on, attended by all the right people...
And on television something completely different is going on, and in my hometown I'm just this weird guy who works at the gas station.

This is so funny:
My neighbor had come over to help me install my new wood stove. I'm on the back porch, screaming at my computer, laughing to myself. Then I saw him seeing me.
That was embarassing.
But you have to understand that you cannot write a spoken-word piece without...actually...speaking it first.
You run the risk of having people see you talk and laugh to yourself.
It's an occupational hazard.
