. . . 'musician' in place of comic


(from The Awkward Thoughts of W. Kamau Bell by W. Kamau Bell)
". . . Many of these comics were feature acts who went on before the headliners, so they weren't getting paid the most money. But there was enough money being made in the '80s that feature acts could make a living, something that is impossible now unless you have some sort of mom's basement/living-out-of-your-car situation. And forget having kids or wanting to save money. There's a dwindling middle class in comedy just like there is a dwindling middle class in America . . . "

Odd . . .

 

. . . how a novel, comic piece of child-like, simple entertainment from the past can actually remind you of exactly what is  happening to you and your mental faculties (many, many years later)  in the present . . .


(Found this stuff while pondering some entertainment that I enjoyed as a child and wondering what some of these people are doing now.)

Sharp. . .

. . . no, I am not criticizing the Miss America beauty contestant Marissa Powell, who fumbled her answer to a question about equal pay for women.  I mean THE PRESS.

The media quickly called Miss Utah for her comically rambling response to the question, which by the way she has handled superbly to her own benefit.  But on a daily basis, we are bombarded by the confounding eloquence of Boehners, Mitchells, Reids, Pauls, Dingells, Rangels, Waxmans, Grahams, Ryans and others, which the press dutifully reports to us verbatum and without question.

Marissa Powell for Congress?
