I’ll be doing the usual Mother show tonight at 9pm.  But tomorrow night, I’ll also be mixing it up with some 2-person improv at the Magnet with fellow Motherite Jesse Falcon in Ampersand at 8pm.  Should be fun!

I just got my hands on a radio spot I did awhile ago for Wendy’s.  It’s about putting stuff in your mouth.  Needless to say, we had to shove bagels in our mouths to get the effect (no fancy foley artists here).  Hear it here:  Things in mouth

This year is the 10th Del Close Marathon, a pile of improvised madness that goes all weekend.  That’s easy math to do:  it’ll be my 10th Marathon.  Wow.  I haven’t done anything for 10 years of my life, I don’t think.  Well, besides that.  And that.  Okay, you know what I mean.  

I’ll be performing in just one show:  MOTHER!  But it’ll be a fun one; Jon Daly’s back in town following a recent move to LA, so it’ll have that Classic Mother taste.  It’s at 8:30pm at UCBT.

BUT:  a show I directed, the wonderful THE SPIN will be performing politically motivated improv at 4:15am on Saturday.  Did I mention that this is Improv Madness?

My Wife the Ghost is a wonderful homage to Bewitched and the like.  You can watch the full series here.  It was originally created by Dyna Moe and Kirk D’Amato for Channel 102 (now Channel 101:NY).

So I’m slowly but surely putting my videos and stuff back up here. I think I will ad some “interesting” “tidbits” about the videos as I put them up.

The incredibly talented team of Dyna Moe and Kirk D’Amato were kind enough to think of me as a creepy blind person for their Superdeluxe series Cakey. My favorite part is when Kevin Cragg interrupts Gavin’s laughing at his own pun. Enjoy!

You know what they say: “When life hands you lemons, make lemonade.” So I’m taking this “opportunity” (or what I’m gonna call a ‘whoopsertunity’–that WILL catch on) to change this blog and how it functions.

I think of this blog (that’s short for Web Log, as I’ve learned…you’re welcome) as a promotional mouthpiece for all things Doug Moe. I tend to be a lazy poster, knowing that it’s not especially charming to go on and on about yourself when no one is listening.

And hey, I have Facebook for the constant updates of what it is I’m doing >this< second. So I don't think it'll be that. If you want to know what I'm doing >right< now, you’ll have to look at me. If you can’t see me, you’re out of luck.

But I’ve been a bit prudish with this site. I’ve been bashful about sharing thoughts and insights when I have them. I haven’t been as forthcoming as I might have been. I’ve been secretive. I’ve been boring. And I haven’t been much fun.

SO: Let Dougmoedotnet 3.0 start. It’ll still be sporadically updated, still be about Doug Moe, but maybe Dougmoedotnet 3.0 will loosen his electric tie a little and get LOOSE.

I basically did the kind of stupid thing that only old people who don’t know how to use computers do:  I destroyed all my old posts and content.  It’ll be up again soonish.  Sigh.
