Kole is back!

Hello friends,
sorry I've been away a while. please pass this blog onto atleast 10 of your friends, its good stuff. I've been substitute teaching in New York City recently. Some very rough schools. Kids throwing condoms at me (back turned of course), other kids challanging me physically to a showdown! Geepers! How do I handle these things? A clever combonation of well timed insults, threats and going to management. Problem is that a kid tried to prevent me from protecting a few other kids from injury. This genius placed a flower pot above a door waiting for someone to open that door. He refused to remove it and blocked me from going towards door. Given hitting is not an option, I waited patiently then went to the Dean. Problem is they may not care about Substitute Teachers. The good schools do, the bad ones have given up on themselves and the students. They are just waiting to be shut down and simple deny there is a real problem. What if they expell the kid? He doesn't graduate and it goes against that school. So, you want to be a teacher? Excellent. Some schools offer programs such a "feeding the Tigers, ducking when chairs are thrown at your head and my favorite, how to blame yourself for being the victim."

The good news is that excellent schools do not have these problems. Even in bad areas if they are well managed, well funded even bad kids behave ok. I love teaching and hope to continually make a difference in the lives of others. Just like Ob-1 said to Luke, "don't give into hate." Although it may be too late for others, its not too late for me. I'll help the kids, but won't turn my back on them. Having condoms thrown at me is not my idea of practicing safe sex.

It's been a long time so listen up!

I've been getting coached not to mix my business ranting with my blogging. Great idea. My good friend the Doctor, who ain't really a fucking doctor lol, but a good friend, along with my other friends TJK, Josh, and someone else....?

I'm so fucking angry these days. Money is tight, and I don't want to deal with it. It pains me to remove money from my savings account. Yet I am in a position where I really need money. Comedy is going great, however it's tough. I have decided to take a part time job with a club to make somone money. I get there, and it's not even set up properly for me. More sabototoge. It seems everyone trys to get over on eachother in New York. We are fast becoming a third world nation. 

Tonight, I had 2 comics go over by 3-4 minutes, and another comic arrive with 15 minutes left in my show. What is wrong with these people? Of course one of them will probably get a tv show because of a few dumbasses without integrity pulling the strings. Or, perhaps all that matters is what sells? sometimes that is what counts. Time for me to stop being such a nasty angry person and simply go along with things. 

I'm going to move forward, in a positive direction, and become happy, content, rich and famous. 

June 9th day and Evening: I took it in the ass like a man

Ok

My day was amazing. Made it to a few meetings to organize my finances. Was enjoying coffee and Cosi, mailed out a few dvds to some comics, very productive. Then I went to the IRS office for some paperwork and they were closed! Ok it was 100 degrees but so the f---k what! I worked today, tonight and got around. They work till 4pm and took off at 3:30pm! 

Went to look at at BMW motorbike, diagnosed the problem with my mine...No it was a nice afternoon. The night before I had a nice romatic evening however was watching a movie about a guy being conscience during open heart surgery.  That almost c...ck-blocked me however after the movie was over...hey hey hey!

Trying to keep track of my spending to ensure I don't waste money. I was not successful however meant well (bid deal).

Comedy- Went to the Underground Lounge for the open mic. Watched a few good comics and some on their way.  The host enjoys his job and helps set up and then close the show. He doesnt not do everything I ask however I am grateful I do not have to do anything for the show to work properly.

Then I'm off to a comedy club near Times Square. I have a 10:5opm spot do to many factors; talent being one of them. However the owner hired a manager or 4 who do not like me. So instead of 10-12 minutes I get lit at 6. Reason being the manager put up his friend who cut into my time. I said nothing however went over the time limit this manager re-negotiated without anyones consent. 

There I decide that it was not my problem that my time was cut. I was going to do my time. everyone else there that is booked by another manager during the week(who really hates me) gets lots of spots. I get a spot a week from the owner because I make the club money (and because I'm funny).  And my thanks is a manager abuses his power tonight and cuts my time. Time that I have been working to get for 7 years. Seven hard years you believe that sh..t?

However- not my problem- I'll bury him, and all those who oppose me. Not through revenge but through my own success, which is always the best revenge.
