  • FSW: Office Edition

    Richard’s playing doctor this week.Dave is quiet at the moment. Perhaps his still dreaming about his dream job.Your sketch is probably really funny. But since you won’t let us read it we’ll never know.I really wanted to have a Memorial Day themed sketch today. But that just seemed like too much work. So here’s my…

  • FSW: Cop Out Edition

    So I’ve been a little busy lately. And more than a little unfocused. So the sketch I was working on for today didn’t really come together. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to leave you empty handed. I have this play I’ve been working on forever. A comedy, of course. About a poor fellow who…

  • FSW: Small Store Edition

    Richard is the early bird this week with a hilarious sketch about a little pillow talk.I know Dave was headed to a Cubs game today, so he could be busy putting on his parka and snow boots before heading to the stadium. It’s like March here today.Here’s my sketch for what it’s worth. After seeing…

  • FSW: Meta-Bistro Edition

    I’m gonna second what Richard said about his post this week. Not quite firing on all cylinders. I’m really looking forward to the weekend. And not doing a damn thing if I can help it.No word from Dave yet, but he could be busy putting razor-wire around his apartment. (A small table in a stylish…

  • FSW: Silence is Golden Edition

    Happy Friday to us, every one!Here’s the news that’s fit to print. Richard is dressed as Rachel Ray. Dave is building the casino of his dreams in Vegas.

  • FSW: Great Outdoors Edition

    Another week come and gone. I would have had this up sooner, but I’ve been hiding under my desk in case another aftershock rolls through here. Earthquakes are only supposed to happen in Third World Countries and California. Not the Midwest.Anyhow, Richard came out, guns a-blazing, with a funny party planning idea.No word from Dave…

  • FSW: Fantasy Dream Edition

    It’s time for another round of Friday Sketch War.Richard was first out of the gate today, with a cautionary tale about television doctors.Nothing from Dave yet, but if it’s anything like last week, he’ll toss something out that will  blow us all away. Update: Dave is up and, er, swimming. And we have a new…

  • Friday Sketch War: Fantasy Edition

    Haven’t heard anything from Dave yet. But Richard’s already posted, even though he’s not feeling well. And it seems as though Red isn’t joining us this week either. Update: Dave has posted and it is super fly! Check it.Here’s my entry, for what it’s worth. Probably reveals a bit too much about my current work…

  • Friday Sketch War: Holiday Edition

    My week off didn’t necessarily inspire any great writing this week. But the blowing snow that I woke up to did. For whatever twisted reason, my brain has had “Deck the Halls” on constant repeat in my head. It looks like Richard took some time away from praying to the Basketball and Porcelain Gods to…
