-Camp Wars was a lot of fun. It looks like the plan is to cut it together into a half-hour TV show, so I'll likely have to do more audio. Watching the boys get ready for the show, I was struck by how much passion CHI CHI CRUZ has for the business. He helps the younger guys with their matches, and always gives everything he has in his own matches, no matter how big or small the show. Afterwards, he's always looking for ways to improve in order to deliver the best possible show. He's been wrestling for 20 years and he still loves what he does. I find that really inspiring.
-I'm still not sure if my next Journal article is running this Friday or next Friday. Apparently there were some complications with the layout. My editor explained it to me, but it was like explaining chess to a goldfish. My job is to write the best articles I can and wear a clean shirt to the photo shoots. Everything else is up to her.
-Tomorrow my final article will go up on Josey Vogels' website. It's been a great experience, and I've really enjoyed hearing from people all over the country. I have mixed feelings about tomorrow's article. It's kind of embarassing, but I think it's also pretty funny. We'll see, I guess.

-I was doing an interview for CBC after the radio taping last night, and I remember saying how much I enjoy doing comedy in Edmonton. It's true. This is a very supportive community for comedy, and a great place to develop. The show was great. I was the first comic up and I felt a little stiff, but overall i was satisfied. STEVE MCCARTHY, SEAN LECOMBER, and LARS CALLEIOU had really good sets as well. It was kind of neat seeing Lars on a Yuks stage. Never say never, I guess.
-Did another photo shoot for the Journal for my next three articles (got a free piece of cake out of the bargain too. Yum.). We haven't settled on dates to run them yet, but I'll post them once I get word.
-Lots of MPW stuff coming up. CAMP WARS is a free show this Sunday at the MPW training facility. As well, they've got FURY in Wetaskiwin on June 2, before returning to Edmonton for AFTERMATH in the usual location at Alberta Ave. Community Hall. www.monsterprowrestling.com for ticket info.

-I've been invited to take part in CBC Radio's So You Think You're Funny Comedy Contest. It takes place next Thursday in the Edmonton Yuk Yuks in Londonderry Mall. It promises to be a great evening with some of the best local guys in the business out strutting their funniest (and cleanest stuff) so I hope to see you there.
-In other radio related news, I'll be appearing on KAMIKAZE KOMEDY radio on June 21 for CJSR FM 88.5. Hosted by LARS CALLIEOU and POWERMANN, Kamikaze Komedy Radio is a great look at comedy from an insider's perspective. They often have guests on board--I believe SHAWN GRAMIAK will be up next week and KELLY SOLODUKA often fills in when either Lars or Powermann are out of town on gigs. It's a great show because you can hear the passion Lars and Powermann have for the business. I hope you'll give it a listen. It's every Wednesday night (or Thursday morning, technically) from midnight to one. At the very least, you'll be able to put a voice to some of the people I talk about so much.

-I got an e-mail from the publisher saying that Cold Flesh, the anthology of zombie stories including my story 'Glass Houses' is the second best-selling book in the history of the publisher. Hooray for all of us who contributed as well as the good folks at www.hellboundbooks.com who made our dream--or more precisely--our post-apocalyptic animated cadaver soaked nightmare--a reality.
-MPW Massacre was a great show with an eye-popping finish. I'll keep you posted on the upcoming DVD release. In the meantime the next show is MPW Aftermath on June 3 at the Alberta Ave. Community Hall. Ticket info is at www.monsterprowrestling.com. I've also heard rumors about taking the MPW show on the road next month. I'll keep you posted as details develop. In the meantime, MPW has their FREE show at their training facility, where the second round of the King of the Camp tournament will be underway.
-I expect my live appearances to slow down a little over the next couple months, as summer is the slow season for both wrestling and comedy. I'm planning to use that time to focus on my writing. I'm developing a sitcom as well as trying to get some more short stories and done and get some columns in the 'bank'.

-I left a pen in the dryer and got inkstains all over one of my favorite dress shirts, so anybody who knows how to get ink out of a dress shirt, e-mail me through my website www.danbrodribb.ca. I've heard spot remover, Crest toothpaste, water and vinegar, and nail polish so far. Or maybe I'll just leave it and wear it to the MPW show at Alberta Ave. Community Hall this Saturday for the first blood match between Massive Damage and Darren "The Bomb" Dalton in case they decide to bring their shenanigans over to the announce table like at Mayhem (as always ticket info is at www.monsterprowrestling.com)
(If this next part reads familiar, it's because I cribbed it nearly verbatim from my myspace blog at http://www.myspace.com/danbrodribb)
Saturday I was in Red Deer middling for PAUL SVEEN and MC ALLISON SMITH. The show went well and I got a kiss from a pretty girl, though she said she'd prefer to make out with Allison. I would be okay with that. Allison is very charming and one of the best people I've seen at dealing with audience members after the show. Still, as a woman in comedy, I'm sure she's had some stories, although I wonder if anything will beat the proposal KATHLEEN MCGEE got one evening at the Comic Strip (you'll have to ask her the story yourself--this is a family blog).
Sunday, I got the call from Yuks to do some time. Peter Kelamis was headlining. I had never seen him before, and he's hilarious. It was a busy show for a Sunday--180-200 peeps and they were great. I was pretty good too, if I do say so myself. I ran into a couple women I was pretty close to back in college, a pair of sisters from Poland. It was cool to see them again, and one of the staff fell in love with one of them at first sight. I wish he'd said something to me earlier--I would have been happy to arrange an introduction...except that it's been so long, I couldn't remember one of their names.
