Friday the 13th Insanity
June 13th, 2008It’s Friday the 13th. No sign of Jason. But you might want to stay on the lookout for either a guy who looks like he’s constantly having an orgasm or a guy who likes to do an exercise known as “Quick Hands.” That’s because today, while I’m still on the company clock at my day job, I will be playing not one, but two of my alter egos: Permanent Nutface Gary and Dr. Lanny Latham. (Yes I know that it’s sad to have two alter egos.)
For Permanent Nutface Gary I have to film some pick-up shots for a Father’s Day video I’m doing for Funny or Die. So stay tuned for that.
For Dr. Lanny Latham, I was hired to perform a fake seminar for a company in Brooklyn. It is sort of a prank I think. I guess I’ll find out when I get there.
So I traveled on the subway this morning with a camera, a boom box (for Gary), clothes for Gary, props for Dr. Lanny (which includes a toy guitar, a toy keyboard, a jump rope, a hand puppet, a noise maker, a fake snake in a fake can of peanuts, etc.) and my suit for Dr. Lanny. And I carried all of these items up the elevator to my cubicle at my day job. Throughout the day I will be changing into my various characters’ getup, grabbing my props, and traveling around NYC to perform, all while I’m supposed to create an image that I’m still doing normal day-job type work.
It’s actually just a typical day at the office for me. But still…
The insanity has got to stop. Make it stop. Why? Why must it continue?… Quick Hands!…Ah, much better…
