Best to all,

David P.

IN WITH THE NEW, IN WITH CERTAIN OLD RERUNS AS WELL

Happy New Year to everyone!

Keep an ear out for a repeat performance of my debate with the great (comedian) Bob Marley talking digital piracy.

That's this Wednesday morning, January 6th 2010 (that's my first date I've written in the new year, got the year right on the first try and everything!).

11:30 AM on CBC Radio One, Sirius Satellite Radio 137.

Hope everyone has lots of laughs this year!

And All the Best.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, ONE AND ALL

Or Clancemas, if you've been following what has become a bit of a tradition, the latest installment of which is hereby presented for your perusal.

All the best, this holiday season.

JUST 'CAUSE I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS UP ANYWHERE ON THE INTERNET YET

This is a little film clip introducing our "Elves" sketch at our Power Force show three months ago.

It has nothing to do with Christmas.

But Merry Christmas anyway.

CLOSE ENCOUNTER OF THE BIRTH KIND


I am very happy to announce that yesterday we met a brand new prospective tenant and future (second) Pryde and joy.

















Granted, right now the baby looks a bit like this:













But if you remember, that alien ended up looking like this:




Precocious and delightful!

Mother is still working through a flu (non-swine variety) but is feeling happy.

The due date is May 31st 2010. The day before our first child's birthday.

Yeah, guess we're not really getting the whole "rhythm method" thing.

Incidentally, in case I forgot to mention it, Daddy is happy too.

THANKS, I'LL BE DEBATING ALL WEEK

If you check out the website http://www.cbc.ca/thedebaters/ you'll see I'm going to be on back-to-back episodes of The Debaters.

The first one is Saturday October 17th at 1:00pm, where I argue the dangers of digital piracy with the super-funny Bob Marley, as recorded this past Just for Laughs festival.

The second one is on Wednesday October 21st at 11:30pm, where I praise the merits of superheroes against the super-funny (yeah, that adjective's better in this case) Ian Boothby, who recently one an Eisner Award, the comic book equivalent of the Oscars, for a short story he wrote for the Simpsons comic, so mention that to whoever you're listening with. 'Cause those are the details that get you some real action.

Both debates are on CBC Radio One and Sirius Satellite Radio 137. Apparently these are now available on iTunes now, as well, but I don't know the specifics on that. Something to do with the internet, which I try to stay away from.

MAY POWER FORCE BE WITH YOU

Last May I joined my friends Mike Paterson, Tim Rabnett and Terence Bowman to form a sketch troupe for Montreal's Sketchfest at Theatre Ste-Catherine. We were called POWER FORCE: COMEDY FOR GEEKS and performed a delightful array of sketches on topics ranging from superheroes to Star Trek to Battlestar Galactica.

Long story short: It went really well, so we're back for a FULL WEEKEND, the last weekend of September, with new sketches, as well as the old ones that were so successful in the first place.

Details on the poster. By the way, if you see the word "sketch" mispelled, that's not a typo, that guy just pronounces it funny.

Hope to see you there! Live long and prosper.



Hey, lookee here, I found a version without a typo (yeah, it was a typo!). Otherwise, it's identical in every way. Yup, I see no difference at all!

Which is why I can't get a pilot's license!
