Cheers Damon (not the author of this site, a different one) Hi Damon,
Like your website, but I have to disagree with one thing: I think I am funny, despite what your domain name says about me.

Pitched somewhere between Ustinov, Capote and Carrot Top, I enjoyed your attempts to remain calm, whilst also trying to come across as windswept and interesting. You suceeded sir. I liked the way that the host introduced you at the start, as someone who had only ever had 5 kisses. An entirely different thing, to someone who had ony locked lips with 5 different people and making you sound like some Dungeons and Dragons obsessive, who lives in his parents' basement.

Therefore, in the rare event that I were to be less than stunningly terrific (which is, of course, <strong>my</strong> expectation) and people begin commenting: <blockquote> "Well, I didn't think he was as funny or as touching as Robin Williams..." </blockquote> They will have been warned: it was my nerves! I swear! Of course: I will be the most phenomenal guest NHPR (nay, NPR even) has ever had the pleasure to put on the air. The response will be deafening; your mailbox will be flooded with inquireries as to who this guest was. Fear not! I have even decided to shave. Damon PS: I am a little nervous <em>and</em> excited; it will be quite fun. Looking forward to meeting all of you too.
