I am just home from a 3500 mile comedy tour of the Dakota's and Montana.  Here is my story about an encounter I had with mans best friend.

It started early Thursday morning.  We had performed the night before in Baltic, South Dakota and were on our way to Plaza, North Dakota to do a show Friday night.  We wanted to stay at a hotel along the way to cut down the 10 hour drive from Baltic to Plaza, but as we got closer we realized it would be easier to stay at the hotel we had reserved for Friday night in the town of Parshall.  We called and they had a room available but an hour later we showed up to find a  full parking lot and no rooms available.  They had a sewage problem in one of their "cabins" (trialor) in a nearby trailor park.  We show up to find a beautiful cabin with bunk beds and a tiolet backing up into the shower.  That's right, human feces on the shower floor, we didn't have to pay extra for this 3rd world treat. 

Our Next Door Neighbor

 As we were unloading the rental car a big dog with a color and a welcoming tail walked up to the door of our luxurious cabin.  Scot, the headliner and tour manager leaned down to pet the beast and found that he was a lover not a fighter (required Michael Jackson reference).  I walked up to the dog to pet him.  He was so excited at the prospect that he rolled over on to his back and exposed his belly.  That sent me into my baby talk voice, "who's a good boy?"  and as I leaned down to rub on the belly of the beast, I felt something strange.... "Oh F"  I shouted... "he pissed on my face!"

HE PISSED ON MY FACE!!!!

In my eyes, my mouth, my hair and the worst part was... NO SHOWER!!!

I was sneak attacked by "Tinkle" my friends and it wont soon happen again.

I sponged bathed and slept well that night after laughing myself to sleep.  To top it off...I woke up to find an up side down beer in my luggage.  Kane fell asleep while holding it from the top bunk.  What an amazing 12 hours. 

I cant wait to hit the road again.

Hello,

This is my 1st blog post and I think it is fitting that it's topic is something worth talking about.  

The Chris Elliott Fund for Glioblastoma Brain Cancer Research is an amazing organization and has helped me see the joy in helping others.  I have volunteered at a few events for them and have been treated well.  Please check them out at www.chriselliottfund.org

I  am blessed and I believe it's because of my giving.  When I give it makes me feel bigger.  You can help more than yourself.  That's the feeling I got when working for CEF.  Opportunities have come that I believe are directly related to my giving at CEF.  

I strongly urge you to get involved in a non-profit organization and experience the joy that comes from giving of yourself.

Until next time,

M
