    You have said "freedom FROM choice" before.... not on this thread but in one of your vids. I am kinda curious what you mean by this or have you a linkable article about it?

    I've never done standup comedy. But I'm a big fan of the format. I like all the usual suspects: Louis CK, Mike Birbiglia, Jim Gaffigan, etc.

    Have you met the best Ireland has offered?

    I think it's a great idea. My wife might not be so feliz (that's another language. See? Getting into it already). One of my favorite books in recent years is called In the Land of Invented Languages by Arika Okrent. It's about languages like Esperanto and Klingon

    Youd like an irish american guy called Des Bishop, hes a comedian that learned the irish language so he could do a stand up show in irish. He seems to annoy some people in ireland for some reason, I dont know why, I think hes a pretty good guy.
    He then went on to live in china and immersed himself in the language all because he wanted to perform a full stand up show in Chinese.
