Atlanta: Land of Contrasts

My annual King Day set at the Star Bar. I guess the idea is to remind the most self-consciously jaded audience in town that an idealist was born a mere 2 miles to the west.

It's my ongoing attempt to give my comedy a sense of place. That place may be a city built by the railroad and sustained by an airport, a metro-wide convention center everyone's just passing through, but there was one person of note actually born here.

I don't guess it would do any good to sneak a file into Dr. King's birthday cake while he was in jail. Unless he had a hangnail.

I correspond with several women prisoners. In 8 to 10 years I will be married.
