Dave Attell - Here we see myself and "Insomniac" star Dave Attell at the Atlanta Punchline. He is one of the funniest comics I have ever seen. If you ever want to see some amazing comedy, SEE DAVE ATTELL!!!!

Lewis Black - Working with Lewis Black (and my friend Betsy Wise) new years of 2002 was a real thrill. I watch him all the time on the Daily Show, and seeing him live was incredible....but he's not really an angry bastard.

Wayne Brady - One night the Hollywood Improv called me at the last minute to see if I could get down there in an hour to open for Wayne. Uh, yeah! He put on one helluva show; all improvised and all hilarious. And to top it off...he's a nice guy! "He's Wayne Brady, yes he's the real Brady...", ok, that was stupid, sorry.

Frank Caliendo - Frank's act was full of some of the best impressions I have ever heard in my life. My favorites were his Pacino and Norm MacDonald (and Brian Regan, but that was just for me)...but most people come to see his Don Madden, AMAZING! Plus he had more archaic 80's references in his act than in one whole day of programming on VH1. He was also a helluva nice guy to work with. (Oh, you'll also notice the facial hair that I am sporting in this pic. I 'grew' it for an audition...jeez, it looks like the Special Olympics of facial hair, "Here's a medal for trying")

Drew Carey - This was taken the night that I was hosting the show at the Hollywood Improv and Drew Carey performed improv with the cast of Whose Line is It Anyway. He was very nice and the whole show was hilarious.

George Carlin - What can I say? This picture was taken at the wedding of a friend, Jerry Hamza, who is also George's manager. I did work with George two times in Florida, and it was unreal! He is without a doubt, the 'god' of comedy. And he is the most down to earth man you'll ever meet.

Dana Carvey - "I'm not worthy!"...ok, I know that was too on the money for this picture, but I truly wasn't worthy. I got a call the night before from the Brea Improv asking if I wanted to open for Dana. Hmm...let me think - YES!! Not only was Dana hilarious, he was such a cool, down to earth guy. He even took some of my ideas for his bits and used them! Seriously, how amazing is that? Thanks again Dana.

Dave Chapelle - I actually worked with Dave Chapelle back in 2001, but lost the picture when my website crashed. Luckily I got a shot with him recently at the LA Improv...here's what I had originally written about working with him:
"It was a lucky break to work with Dave, and I'm grateful for the experience. He was one of the most normal, real guys in showbiz you'll ever meet. And funny as hell, he actually did a 2 hour show on the last night....and kept the audience's attention!"

Bobby Collins - Bobby Collins, the man with the salsa dog, at Uncle Funny's in Ft. Lauderdale. He's a great guy who gave me some really great advice. I've worked with him three times, and look forward to another.

Tommy Davidson - What a guy! Tommy Davidson and myself at Rascals Comedy Club in New Jersey. His act is so funny and full of high energy, he must have a ridilin milkshake before each show.

Jeff Duhnam: 1995, Jeff Duhnam: 1999 & Jeff Duhnam: 2005 - These are the 'before and after' pictures of me with Jeff Duhnam. The one from 1995 is me with Jeff and 'Peanut' after one of his shows, I wasn't working with him, I was just a fan. The one from 1999 is me and Jeff when I did get to work with him! But this time I didn't need Peanut in the picture...I'm much more mature, yeah right! Now most recently, I worked with the amazing Mr. Duhnam in Ft. Lauderdale where he killed every show. His new "manager", Sweet Daddy D., is also seen in the picture. What a playa!

Will Durst - I had such a great time with Will Durst at the Calgary Comedy Festival. He is truly one of the best political comics....EVER! I mean he played in Canada, did American political jokes and still killed!

Diane Ford - This was after a show at the Comedy Corner with Diane Ford. She's such a sweetie! She's the Susan Lucci of comedy, nominated 10 times for best female comedianne!

Pablo Francisco - Pablo is one of the only comics I can watch over and over and over again and laugh like it was the first time I've seen him. He is one of the best comics out there and a helluva nice guy! "Stick it in your boom-boom!"

Jeff Garlin - Jeff was a great guy to work with. I knew him already from "Curb Your Enthusiam" and "Daddy Day Care", but what neither of us knew is that we both grew up in the same South Florida town, went to the same high school, college and temple. I'm telling you, it's really a small world. Oh, we were also dubbed "Cocoa and Roody" from the IHOP waitress.

Bobcat Goldthwait: 1996 & Bobcat Goldthwait: 2003 - 1996 was the first time I worked with Bobcat, it for just one night, but it was a lot of fun. (We're holding a video of "The Spacey Brothers" , the movie I did. It seems the director also edited one of Bobcat's HBO specials...lucky me.) The other picture was recently when I got to work with him for a full week. He's a really funny, genuine guy and a blast to hang with.

David Alan Grier - Here I am sharing some ideas for David's act...as you can tell, he was really enthralled. In all seriousness, David was a really great guy to hang out with and really, really funny. His act is full of really great characters and wonderfully dirty stories...he's like a filthy Bill Cosby.

Dana Gould - Lookie who I got to work with? This was at the Hollywood Improv one night where myself and Mr. Gould were on the same show. Dana is a brilliant, obscure, hilarious comedian who happens to write on a little show called "The Simpsons". It was such a thrill to just watch him tackle the stage; truly brilliant.

Maryellen Hooper - Here I am with the 1998 Best Female Comedianne Maryellen Hooper at Sidesplitters Comedy Club in Tampa. She was so sweet and such fun to work with. Can you tell we were both theater majors...such hams.

Dom Irrera - Me and Dom Irrera circa 1996 or so, long before I ever worked with him. I eventually did work with him several times, but I just never had my camera.

Mario Joyner - This was me and Mario Joyner at Zanies in Nashville, TN. You probably know him from when he used to host MTV's comedy hour. He was a blast to hang with and funny as hell.

Shelia Kay - This is me and Sheila Kay at the New York Comedy Club. She's been nominated twice for 'Best Female Comedian' and well deserved each one.

Jaime Kennedy - Despite how confused he looks, that is me and Jaime Kennedy after our show in Tempe, AZ. Not only was he really cool and fun, he sold out a Sunday show (almost unheard of) and we had a great time working together.

Larry the Cable Guy - "Git 'R' Done!" Larry the Cable Guy puts on one helluva show, funny, funny, funny! I had such a great time with him in Atlanta, and his crowds are some of the best I've ever performed in front of!

Wendy Liebman - She's such a cutie! I had a blast working with Wendy Liebman in Miami. She is known as "The Queen of the Throw Away Punchline", really an original style and funny as all.

George Lopez - I got this picture with George in 2005 at the Hollywood Improv after his brilliant performance at a YMCA benefit show. But I had actually worked with him way back in 1997 in Miami, and let me tell you something, this man is so cool and so down to earth. His status may have changed from road comic to tv star, but his ego is still in check, he is so great. He actually remembered me and invited me to the set of his show to "hang out"...how f**king cool is that!? Thanks again George...sorry, gracias Jorge.

Jackie "The Jokeman" Martling - This was a real treat to work with Jackie 'The Jokeman' Martling at Rascals. I had always listened to him on Howard Stern. He was a lot of fun to hang out with, funny as hell to watch on stage and just a great guy to talk to. Check out his site too, funny stuff.

Larry Miller - This man is a legend. I'm sure most of you know him from movies like "Pretty Woman", "Waiting For Guffman", "Best In Show"...the list goes on. But I first knew of Larry Miller from his days as a stand up comedian. I swear, I begged to get on this show because I knew that it was going to be great; and it was. He was not only hilarious, but soooo f**king cool. His most famous (and funniest) bit is The 5 Levels of Drinking...enjoy.

Jay Mohr - This was taken back in 2000 when I worked with Jay and comedian Mike Dinacola in Miami. This picture has been lost for years and I just found it now in 2005. I'm so excited because not only can I now prove that I worked with Jay, I can say that I "officially" know that he's a great guy and a fantastic comic.

Garrett Morris - I just couldn't believe it, here I am with legend, icon and a really cool mofo, Garrett Morris. This was taken just before Garrett opened the show at The Downtown Comedy Club and then he brought me on stage! He's 72 years old, still performing and kicking ass! Apparently baseball has been bery good to him.

Bob Nelson - This was a real honor and thrill for me, working with Bob Nelson. I remember watching him as a kid, and loving all of his characters: Eppy Eperman, Jiffy Jeff, etc. and wishing to work with him one day. Halleluyah!

John Pinette - John Pinette, who was not only voted 'Best Male Comedian of 1999', but was also one helluva guy to work with. This is us New Years 1998 after...what seems to have been for me...a very sweaty show.

Robert Schimmel - Robert Schimmel was not only a thirll to work with, but he was one of the nicest comics I've ever worked with. He was voted 'Best Male Comedian of 1999'. We hung out every day he was here, and had a problem trying to see 'Enemy of the State'..every show was sold out, but we were going to be damned before we settled for 'Mighty Joe Young'!

Pauly Shore - Me and Pauly Shore aboard his tour bus after our show at the Carefree Theater in West Palm Beach. What can I say....? Nothing.

Bobby Slayton - I don't know what Bobby is doing here, but I seem to be smiling a bit too hard. It was great seeing Bobby recently when his HBO movie, The Rat Pack where he played Joey Bishop, premiered. I've had nothing but fun working with the Pitbull of Comedy, even though he constantly calls me "Flippy"!

Doug Stanhope - Here we see myself and Doug Stanhope sharing a special moment. Doug is truly one of my favorite comics, but man, he is SICK!...That's probably why he got the gig as the new co-host of "The Man Show". Go see this man and be prepared to either love him or want to kill him.

Pam Stone - Here I am with Pam Stone in Miami. You probably recognize her from 'Coach', she was very sweet and EXTREMELY tall. I mean, REALLY tall!

Wanda Sykes - I got the call to open for Wanda Sykes 2 hours before showtime, and even though I was having a bad allergy attack, I still drove 50 miles to do the show because I wanted to work with her so bad. I had never seen her live and I don't know what I was more impressed with; her brilliant stand-up or how nice she was.

Joe Torrey - Here I am sending shout outs to all my homeys with (top row) myself and the feature, Roy P, and (bottom row) Kid, of 'Kid n' Play' and, the headliner, Joe Torry at the Miami Improv. The whole week, Joe went on stage to hard core rap music, so on Sunday I decided to go balls to the wall and I went up to "Ice, Ice, Baby". I thought it would be funny and get a laugh...It didn't work.

Thea Vidale - What a woman! Thea Vidale is one of the most irreverant and 'to-the-point' comics I have ever seen...plus she's hilarious. We had such a great time working together. For those of you who have see my show recently, Thea's the person who convinced to do 'Handy' on stage. God bless her!

Damon Wayans - Under that towel lurks the smile of Damon Wayans. He was an incredible performer and helluva nice guy off stage too. I tried to convince him that I was the missing Wayans Brother...Whitey Wayans. I just want my own sitcom on the 'Dubba-Dubba-Dubba-Dubba-WB!'

Michael Winslow - I'm sure everyone will recognize Michael as the guy from the 'Police Academy' movies who did all the sound effects. This was us in Omaha, he was a thrill to work with and a really nice guy...scared the crap out of me though when he made a 'dog bark' sound, it sounded so real!

"Weird Al" Yankovic - All I can say is that dreams can come true. I am an avid Weird Al fan, and when I was a kid I was obsessive! I finally meet him in 1994, and after that I thought (jokingly) "Well, the only other thing I could do now is perform with him...ha ha..." Well, the joke was on me because I got to not only open for him, but also tour with him through Florida! This was us after a show in Ft. Myers, FL.

Bob Zany: 1990 & Bob Zany: 1999 - Here's a little example of fate. This picture from 1990 is of Bob Zany and myself at the Vegas Improv when I was 16. Bob was the first comic I ever saw live. Flash forward to the picture from 1999, 8 years later, I got to work with him. It was very surreal. And to top it off, he's a great guy and nominated twice for best comedian of the year. He was just amazed at the difference in his hair!




Milton Berle - Enough said.

Red Buttons - A legend? A master of comedy? An incredibly nice and supportive person? ...Red Buttons is all of that and more. This was taken after his performance at a benefit in Hollywood. He was so funny and so gracious to take this picture. Another time I saw him at the Friars Club, he stayed all night and watched every comic and gave us all great compliments and advice. Seriously, he was one of the last great comics.

Louis CK - Louis CK is one of my favorite comedians working today. He is smart, filthy, edgey and brilliant. Plus a helluva nice guy. This was taken at the Hollywood Improv before he went on stage and while I made my "Luke Perry" face. Special thanks to Michael Schwartz for the picture.

Pat Cooper - Me and Pat Cooper, a comedy legend. He stopped in a club I was working, and I just snapped this quick shot. He's one of the last great comics...and funny as s**t!

Rodney Dangerfield...sorta - A once in a lifetime chance and I just missed it. I was recently in LA for a comedy get-together, and I'm standing outside the Improv when who should walk out, but the legend, Rodney Dangerfield. So I ask another comic (who shall remain nameless...BOB!) to take a pic for me. So I ask Rodney if he would take a pic and he said, "Sure kid." At that point I see if Bob is ready to take the pic, when I turn back, Rodney was talking to another comic. So I respectfully waited, and when Rodney was done, he turned to leave. So Bob, in his infinite wisdom snapped the shot you see here, because he thought Rodney was leaving. Then Rodney turned around because he realized that he hadn't take the picture yet. So there I am all ready with him...but what happened? THE BATTERIES DIED! So Rodney said, "What's the problem? Alright, I'm outta here, that's it." And he walked into his car. So the only proof I have of meeting Rodney Dangerfield is a picture of me reaching out to him as he walks away....thanks Bob.

Rick Ducamen - You might recognize Rick Ducamen from his roles in the films "The Burbs" or "Scarey Movie". But for comedy experts, he is one of the best comics who came out of the 80's. I was lucky enough to see his show in LA, and even luckier to snap this pic with him.

Bud Friedman - This was a great moment in my life to not only met Bud Friedman, the man who began the Improv Comedy Clubs, but to have performed for him. He still hasn't returned my calls...hm?

Gallagher - This was pretty cool. I was at a showcase/audition and I was pleasantly surprised to see a living legend, Gallagher, was performing there too. I didn't get to see his show, but I did get to chat with the man and he had some nice advice for me. He told me to use my melon. HA! No he didn't, but that would've been a lot funnier.

Rich Hall - This was me back in 1995 with Rich Hall after I saw him perform at the Comedy Corner. This was when my hair made me look like a dirty cutip!

Richard Jeni - Here I am at Y-100 radio with Richard Jeni, one of the best comics out there. He was performing in Miami and came down to the station to plug the show and I was there doing some radio stuff....and he and I snapped this shot together. (by the way, the hand around Rich's shoulder is that of 'Footy', the head DJ of the morning show there)

Laura Kightlinger - Here I am with comic Ernie G and Laura Kightlinger at a big roller skating party in LA. She is best known from SNL, but she is also a hilarious comic and writer...not to mention cute as hell. Oh, and not a word about my shirt, I love it!

Jay Leno - I was so lucky to see a benefit show at the Hollywood Improv where Jay Leno was headlining. He was an amazingly nice guy to meet and incredible on stage. He's really a comic to the end, he even brought his tape recorder on stage to listen to his jokes later. Really, he's an inspiration.

Bob Odenkirk - Bob Odenkirk is one half of Mr. Show, the best sketch show ever! I saw Bob at the Improv Comedy Club in LA and he was cool enough to take a picture with me. UPDATE: I got a picture (taken on a crappy camera phone) with the second half of Mr. Show, David Cross, at the birthday party of a friend. Yes, my collection is complete!

Emo Philips - This was me backstage after seeing the brilliance of Emo Philips first hand. He truly is an excellent comedian, all material is smart and funny, and he is a really nice (and suprisingly) normal guy.

Brian Regan - I got to see one of my top 5 favorite comics, Brian Regan, at the Improv in Ontario, CA. He was amazing live, hilarious and never curses. Plus, he is a really nice guy. This was also a day where we both had gotten too much sun.

Michael Richards - That's right, it's me and "Kramer"! I was at the Improv in LA working on a set, and who stopped by to do a show, but Micheal Richards. He is definetly a different kind of comedy, but hilarious none the less.

Freddie Roman - What can I say? One of the great comedy legends, and Dean of the NY Frairs Club, happened to be in town for the Jerry Lewis Telethon and took some time to chat with a young schmuck like me and take a pic. Thanks Freddie!

Martin Short - An amazing talent, a comedic legend, and a helluva nice guy, Martin Short is all that....and a bag of chips. He did a sketch show one night in LA, and although I couldn't get in to see the show, he was gracious enough to take this picture with me. Forgive the quality, I again tried to tweak the brightness in photoshop.

Sarah Silverman - Sarah Silverman has two very rare qualities: She's beautiful AND she's hilarious! Plus, she is so sweet and I can't tell you how jealous a lot of my friends in Florida were when they saw this picture. Thanks Sarah!

Scott Thompson - Here I am after seeing Scott Thompson (of 'Kids In The Hall' fame) at the Miami Improv. He was an incredible performer, he did the whole show as Buddy Cole, his gay character. I guess everyone can agree that my friend who took the shot will never make it as a professional photographer...where's my hair?!

Keenan Ivory Wayans - Look who happened to be at the Improv one late August night? It's me and the original Wayans, Keenan.

Fred Willard - I got to not only meet a legend of comedy, but write for him as well. Fred Willard (from such movies as "Waiting for Guffman", "Spinal Tap" and "WALL-E") came to see Terry Fator's show in Vegas. Now I am one of Terry's writers and we all wanted the two of them to do a bit on stage, so we wrote something for them and it was amazing to watch. Really a thrill and a half for me.

Robin Williams - It was a random night at the Hollywood Improv, just another Thursday night. I'm standing watching the show when who should walk in...the big man...the best! Robin Williams. This is the man that first inspired me to do comedy, and there he was, in the flesh. I was so nervous to ask for my picture, but he was cool as hell (he posed for quite a few) and then he actually went on stage! He was just riffing and working out some material, but it was brilliant. And he was so cool too; after his show he just shot the shit with all of us. It was truly one of the most amazing moments in my life.
