As a creative person, you want to have a foothold and sense of progress.

I was making pancakes the other day and a fly flew into the kitchen. And that's when I realized that a spatula is a lot like a fly-swatter. And a crushed fly is a lot like a blueberry. And a roommate is a lot like a fly eater.

Specifically in stand-up, I love jokes. I love short, structured ideas and a punchline.

I was watching MTV and there were girls dancing in suspended cages. That would be an ambivalent situation: "I'm trapped! ...but enjoying the music".

How many of you are creative? I don't know, but for me, when you make a bunch of things over time and then you keep them... you forget. I look through my sketchbooks and I'm an audience for myself.

Reality is a concept that depends largely upon where you point your face.

There is probably more invisible tape out there than we realize.
