My son gives me a lot of joy

Growing up in a foster home I always wondered what it would be like to live with my real parents. All I knew about my mom was that she was short …had red hair…and hung out with bikers. Every time I would see a lady that fit that description I would wonder if that was my mom. I walked up to a lot of biker chicks in the  80’s and 90’s and asked them if they had any sons named Darren.  I stopped asking about 10 years ago when I got my answer. We’ll save that conversation for another blog. This is my Son…and he knows his mom and dad.

Radio show I did in San Francisco

I LOVE doing radio. Before I did stand-up I worked at a radio station in my home town (Fresno). 

Now I can enjoy the best of both worlds!

Motel 6 Parking Lot Crack Rocks

A lot of time on the road I’ll see some bizarre stuff.

This was one of those days.

GIANT WHITE ROCKS in the Motel 6 parking lot.

Picked up a hitchhiker…kinda of a weird dude

Actually…it’s my buddy Toogie Jackson. Check him out on myspace. Funny guy!

The scariest tattoo I have ever seen

I was in the East Bay (Near Oakland, CA) and saw this dude at a bar:

 

This is the back of his head…

I would have asked for a 3rd picture…but I think he was getting a little annoyed with me.

DENNY’S TAKEOUT

Denny’s has TAKEOUT? I guess this is for people who want diarrhea at home. Ba-Da-Bing!

Condolences to John Travolta

As a father, I can’t even imagine the horror of losing your son. I offer my sincere condolences to John Travolta and his family.

I met Mr. Travolta on the set of “Be Cool” and he was a pleasure to work with. He arrived to the set in a black SUV with tinted windows.  Every cast  and crew member that was there that day,  (About 50) watched him as he waved and called out to people by name. He was the biggest star on the set and treated everyone with respect and kindness. In between takes we talked about flying and his love for airplanes. Debi Mazar brought her child and they talked about kids and the pleasures of raising children. At that moment it didn’t seem like two actors killing time on a set… it seemed like two people… two parents bonding and sharing their love for something bigger than movies and stardom. 

God Bless John Travolta and his family.

I am not there, I do not sleep 
I am a 1,000 winds that blow 
I am the diamond glints on snow 
I am the sun on ripened grain 
I am the gentle autumn rain 
When you awaken in the morning’s hush 
I am the swift uplifting rush 
Of quiet birds in circled light 
I am the soft star that shines at night 
Do not stand at my grave and cry 
I am not there; I did not die.

 

Do not stand at my grave and weep 
I am not there, I do not sleep 
I am a 1,000 winds that blow 
I am the diamond glints on snow 
I am the sun on ripened grain 
I am the gentle autumn rain 
When you awaken in the morning’s hush 
I am the swift uplifting rush 
Of quiet birds in circled light 
I am the soft star that shines at night 
Do not stand at my grave and cry 
I am not there; I did not die.
