Thank God he informed me ahead of time that it was hilarious.
I might have missed it.
Alex self describes:
"Bio: Alex is a moderately attractive comedian and Internet celebrity. He writes about philosophy, robots, travel, and himself."
And a further assessment, presumably self-imposed:
"One of Portland's 20 funniest people but not top 10,"
So what we have here is a person who presumes to the title of "The 20th Funniest Person in the Nation's 28th Largest Market."
(Well, I for one, am certainly impressed.)
