I mean, I guess I started during the comedy boom, so it was literally like, on Sunday you could decide you wanted to be a comic, and on Monday, you could be on stage.
I mean, I guess I realized subconsciously that this is what I should be doing before I realized it, consciously. Verbally, I don`t think I had committed to it, even though I was driving everywhere, every night, just trying to get on stage.
I had some friends that tried it down there, and I went to a couple of open mics, and I just kind of got this... this sick urge to try it instead of just watching it.
