Doug Stanhope at the Improv in San Jose this Thursday evening (630pm dinner, 8pm show - $20)

By the way, I'm going to see Doug Stanhope in San Jose this Thursday evening with a friend or two. I'll be driving down from SF and might have room for one or two more, so if you need a ride, let me know. The show starts at 8pm, but we'll be getting dinner there first at 630pm, so probably leave SF around 5-530pm.

  For those not familiar with Stanhope, he's been on Comedy Central, was in the film "The Aristocrats," hosted "The Man Show," etc. Myself and some other Libertarians (Terry Floyd, etc.) saw him last year in SF and he's absolutely terrific. In fact I'm hoping to try to draft him to run for president in 2012 (in 2007 he briefly flirted with seeking the Libertarian nomination -- see http://stanhopeforpresident.com/). Hardcore pro-freedom libertarian, pulls no punches. Not for the easily offended!

  The tickets are $20, dinner items are $10 and up. There's also a two-drink minimum, but getting dinner and a drink covers it. You can make reservations online here -- http://www.symfonee.com/Improv/sanjose/comedians/Bio.aspx?ShowDate=5/21/09&Uid={df56b48d-a48e-4ef3-883b-91a896bf5cf8}. And here are a few Stanhope clips from YouTube to get you in the mood!
