Murphdogg,

Okay, will do.

On a side note, I don't have enough experience to give good advice that works. I only have advice that I haven't proven in anyway...

Murphdogg,

Honestly I don't think reading a book or taking a class can make you a better comedian. I think the best thing you can do is [Font size=5 face=a color=red]Get On Stage as OFTEN as possible![/font]

If you don't have many stages where you live, make one. You don't have to have a lot of stage time and/or experience to do it either. I was only on stage twice before I found a theater in Pittsburgh and talked the owner into letting me have one 8-o but I'm also fairly street smart and know how to hustle when necessary ]:o)

Whatever you do...[Font size=5 face=i color=purple]Good Luck![/font]
Luchia,
