Every day last week I made at least one mental note to learn from. I feel a bit like Doogie Howser MD saying this It was a rampant and varied week with my first lesson learnt on Wednesday. The Comedy Club does not have a BYO policy. Big Wednesday at The Comedy Club attracted a full house and some guide-getters got turned away.

He was so stealth-like he witnessed me pouring from my ripper-sipper under the table and tore strips off me, in a comedic kind of way. Onto lesson number two...
