This was live on G4’s Attack of the Show last night, and yeah, that’s me, co-lead blogger of WoW Insider. Was lots of fun– my editor emailed looking for someone to do it, and eventually no one else jumped on it, so he passed it to me. I’m especially happy that I got to wear the t-shirt that my cousin made for our family (no one asked me where they could buy one, but they can’t!), as well as my favorite jacket from Target. Plus, I’m really glad I didn’t look too bad– I spent a lot of time in the studio (it was via satellite from downtown Chicago) making sure I didn’t look like a complete dork.

Of course, I was talking about games, so that was kind of unavoidable. I stumbled around a little bit, but hopefully I did pretty well for a first time. No idea if anyone’s ever going to ask again, but I’m here if they need me.

And this is cool, too– it’s the cover from the story I did last week for Newcity about stand-up in Chicago.

Is that my name on the cover of an alternative weekly available right now for free throughout Chicago? It sure is.

That’s Josh Cheney, Mark Geary of the Lincoln Lodge, and Robert Buscemi, all extremely talented guys (Josh is headed out to LA this summer to write comedy, and Buscemi is already practically a legend around Chicago– here’s him telling the hilarious joke I wrote about in the article, and here’s him doing… well I have no idea what that is, but it’s really funny).

The photo’s taken by Audrey Cho, who I’ve never met, but who has now shot, I believe, at least two of my four cover stories for Newcity. Maybe three. She rocks.

So I’m real happy that both of those things came down last week. Here’s where I would usually tell you what I’m working on next, but I got nothing– keep checking back, I guess. Hopefully something fun will come up.
