I LOVE this show! But I can't bring myself to vote, because I'm just sooooo in awe of all of them.

I'm thinking about doing this. Maybe I'll wear a pair of boxing gloves onstage. And then I'll have trouble grabbing the mic.

I love it too. I'm not sure who I'm rooting for, I like all of them.

My only gripe is that they have established comics on the show. By established, I mean they have already had their own televised TV specials on Comedy Central. Luckily they have been voted off.

I noticed that. Maybe there just aren't enough real amateurs.

I thought Roz was funnier than Michele Malin.

More people vote for this than vote for president. I can't be bothered to vote for this....what's that say about me? I think they charge .50. I'm THAT cheap.

Well Michelle is history...

I'm leaning more towards Josh and Ty.

I won't vote either, because I too don't want to waste 50 cents on a phone call and I don't care enough to vote...

and if we could vote for President by phone I think more people would vote 'cause they don't want to get off their lazy asses to go to the voting precinct :)

His joke about the Para-Olympic soccer teams had me rolling. Especially his impersonation of the drunken scotsman with cerebal palsy...

Watch it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2h4gN-riheQ

and here's the previous week

I don't think he's using the "feel sorry for me" card at all. He's just speaking the obvious, telling the world what people say to him in their ignorance or his perspective of the world viewing his handicap.

I also love how he keeps referring to the other comics who were voted off to keep them in the minds of the public. I just hope he doesn't get corrupted by fame like so many people do. He's genuine, that's what people tap into.

I was really rolling when he was talking about doing the self-checkout at the grocery store.
