Judy, could you please make the address to send pics from your phone a little longer? I'm old and my fingers are fat. It just took me 8 minutes to send a photo and I think it may have sent it…Continue

Ron Rigby commented on Judy Carter's blog post Your Secrets are Funny"Hi Megan, I once worked closely with a 35 year old beginer who has ADD. He wasn't ADHD so he was very calm and slow talking and he would often just stop completely in the middle of a line and just look confussed. The audience loved him because…"
Ron Rigby commented on Judy Carter's blog post Performing Tips: Going From Free to Fee"Hi Megan, I'm not quite a professional but I love to "punch up" speaches. If you haven't gotten to that part in the book yet, punching up a script or speach is simply infusing some "funny" into the material. If you ever…"
Ron Rigby replied to Kevin Javier's discussion Have I gone to far with this one?"I wouldn't use the word retarded when referring to a child. A retarded law or policy or something like that would be ok. Why risk offending your audience when you can use another word that is just as effective? One little comment like that can…"
Ron Rigby commented on Judy Carter's blog post Your Secrets are Funny"Thanks....he truly was amazing!"
Ron Rigby replied to Kevin Javier's discussion Have I gone to far with this one?"Id probably be a little more general about it like..."some day I'll go in there with my three kids, just to get an estimate. This way I'll know what i can get for them if Im ever in a bind"
Also, I might say "the stupid…"
Ron Rigby commented on Judy Carter's blog post Your Secrets are Funny"All very true! I just did a solid 10 minutes on what it was like to be a fat 12year old...which I was. All very funny now , but back then, not so much. I think the worse things (at the time) that happened to you haveare the funniest things to an…"
Ron Rigby replied to Jessica Clark's discussion Recluse Seeking Comedy Buddy"Hi Jessica, Im Ron...
When you say "you've had a bunch of writing gigs" do mean comedy writing gigs? Comedy writing is something Id love to try. If you have any contact numbers for people who may need a writer I would be very…"
Ron Rigby replied to FOGHORN's discussion Is Age A Factor?"Hi Katherine, its nice to know Im not the only person on the planet that decided to go for what they've know for many years was what they were meant to do. I can say that I've always been a late bloomer and I haven't always known what…"
Ron Rigby commented on Judy Carter's blog post Judy's Birthday Blog"Hi Judy, I started stand up at age 50 buy taking a class called " Comedy 101" in the metro Detroit area. The instructor of that course is a man named Martin Arakilian. Marty took one of your work shops years ago when he lived in L A.…"
Ron Rigby replied to John Campbell's discussion Is this funny??? Yes or no and How can it be funnier?"Yes John, that stuff is very funny in my opinion.
I would keep going with the "how old are you" question.....like, "her ass is 3, her nose is 5.....I think that premise is really funny.
Also, I wouldn't end it on the…"
Ron Rigby replied to Pete Laperriere's discussion Looking for buddy in VA!"Pete, you sent me your stuff about don't ask don't tell, and I went to reply but the return address said "do-no-reply", so I had no idea wtf to do at that point. So I have some ideas but I need you to send that shit again from…"

- Describe yourself
- I'm probably older than everyone else here....I'm 52 but I feel no older than like maybe 51. My parents used to have parties when I was a kid and they would wake me up at midnight or so to entertain their guests. But as a kid I always had crippling "stage freight" so I would never even consider being a performer. Something happened when I turned 50....I don't know why but all that fear just went away. I've always been the guy that makes everyone laugh...not in a stupid way though. I've never been the type to be a clown....but I would certainly be the guy to quietly joke about the clown and have the people around me laughing while we watched a clown.
- Experience Level
- I've had a few gigs
