Gilbert the Artist
I watched the biography, I’ve listened to all the podcasts, and I’ve watched all his comedy. Not once – – not a single time – – was it ever even hinted that he was also an incredibly talented artist. Wow!

Good-Bye, Gilbert
As is always the case, The Director told me about it first. I learned about Norm MacDonald this way, and Bob Saget, and I’ve forgotten who else. Anyway, our beloved Gilbert Gottfried died, and I will do a proper post for him in the next few days. In the meanwhile, I will just say that it makes me very sad – – in just six months, we’ve lost Norm, Bob, and now Gilly. To this day, it warms my heart that, even though I never got to meet him in person, we still got to exchange some goofiness online…………

I Made Gilbert Laugh
As I mentioned off-handedly a few days ago, I was listening (as I always do) to Gilbert Gottfried’s Amazing Colossal Podcast, and I just about ran off the road when I heard them mention my name. See, I had whipped up a simple drinking game based on their show and tweeted it to them. It was such a throwaway, I didnt’ even save it. But they mentioned it on a preview, and yesterday when the full show was released, they spent several minutes talking and laughing about it and declared it the best tweet. So the fact I made Gilbert and Frank laugh loudly made my day.
It’s behind a paywall, so I can’t share it, but here’s what I saw this morning:
Oh, and here’s Billy Barty, just for the hell of it. Thanks, Gilly!
