Monday Feb 28 2011 The Apiary Presents... An Evening with the Emerging Comics of The ECNY Awards

Monday, February 28, 2011 at 2:55PM The Apiary is pleased to announce its new live comedy show "The Apiary Presents..." happening THURSDAY, MARCH 10TH @ 8:00PM in the basement of The Peoples Improv Theater. As chroniclers of the comedy world, our plan is to curate each edition of the show around some sort of theme or thing we find interesting. With the ECNYs just a few weeks away, for our first show we thought it'd be fun to round up the breakout comedians nominated for this year's prestigious Emerging Comic Award.

Featuring:

* Ilana Glazer

* Mike Recine

* Adrienne Iapalucci

* Jared Logan

* Nick Turner

Other surprises are in the works--we're still figuring out what those will be. The show is CONVENIENTLY LOCATED and FREE! Don't miss it!

Wednesday, February 23, 2011 at 5:28PM Just a reminder that Michael Showalter will be reading from his new book Mr. Funnypants and signing copies TOMORROW evening at the Barnes and Noble in Union Square. Neko Case will be there as well for some reason (did she ghost write it??). Mr. Funnypants is currently #2 on Amazon's Bestsellers List for Comedy behind another Chelsea Handler book.

Here's a sample.

Showalter then heads to Philly and DC before coming back to Brooklyn on Sunday for the official Mr. Funnypants release party atThe Bell House. Tickets are SOLD OUT already. :(

Wednesday, February 23, 2011 at 3:45PM In Katy Perry's hit single Firework, she famously asks, "Do you ever feel like a plastic bag? Drifting through the wind? Or one that's on the face of the guy making your churros at Costco?" I didn't know what Katy was talking about until yesterday when I went to buy churros at the Costco concession stand. The guy making them had a hairnet on his head... AND A HAIRNET ON HIS BEARD!

I stepped out of line to compose myself. I contemplated taking a picture of the dude but then I felt really sad and concerned about the world. The Costco executive who wrote this absurd hairnet policy into the employee handbook should be thrown out a window. Why must I order from a guy wearing a bag on his face? How can either of us take this transaction seriously? I'm not buying Intel Pentium chips, just a couple of snacks!

I mean, is beard hair really that big of a threat? Do beards even shed? Is my beard shedding? Oh my god, did I drop a facial hair in the dish I made for the potluck I'm going to tonight? Is it true the average human consumes over 70 facial hairs throughout their lifetime??

Anyways, I did some research and found 5 pictures of people wearing beard hairnets.

You're probably thinking what I was thinking: NONE OF THESE PREVENT NOSEHAIR OR EYEBROWS FROM FALLING INTO MY FOOD! I came up with an elegant solution just for that problem. Take a regular bag like this one I got from my mom's grocery bag collection and place it on your head. For optimal containment, be sure to tie it tightly around your neck so no hair can escape. If you're a teen, you can add sunglasses or a doo rag, so you can still rock a cool look while staying within whatever stupid food prep guidelines your employer has embarrassingly forced upon you.
