At Cobb's. You were hilarious. I never thought about the
evolution/fossil fuel thing before. I'm still laughing about it.

Hope to see you in SF again.

Hi Bill,

Your performance on Thursday in Marin was amazing. You've got so much energy and your humor is so intelligent. It was a pleasure to watch you and talk to you after the show. I particularly liked the joke about the rat and cat -- "watch a self correcting universe." Enjoy your time in San Francisco and if you are as good at Salsa as you are at making people laugh, I would love to witness that performance as well.

All the best,

L.

Subject: Unintelligent design


Mr Santiago:
I enjoyed the "intelligent design" essay in Mother Jones online. It's
fun to see "trompe l’oeil" used once in a while. It works better in
print than in conversation, even more so in Knoxville.

It's strange to me that people don't realize evolution IS "intelligent
design." I mean, sorta. I'm sorta stuck on "intelligent design" being
redundant, but that's the pedagogue in me.

I keep hoping that God will speak to me some day and he will sound
like Titus Moody. Or Jack Gifford, maybe.

The other person cc'd here is a local gadfly who tipped her friends off
to this beautiful essay.

Thanks,
Jack

Touché! I have not laughed so hard in a very long, long time. I really need a rise beyond the daily drivel of a species that didn't just invent the concept of the Peter Principle (as observed by Dr. L. J. Peter) but gave business a free hand in both the control and formation of our contemporary socio-cultural values. My favorite explication of of this principle can be found at

Thanks for the laugh

Bill!

Just wanted to say congratulations on your career…I met you briefly at the Victoria Theater a few years ago when you did a set for the Latin Kings of Comedy movie…I was the MC…That was my third time ever on stage as a “comic” and well, you witnessed it, so I won’t go into it…I will say that since I’ve gotten back into it (the Victoria was my third and last gig for a while—my wife and I just had a baby and it wasn’t possible for me to put the time into comedy during the pregnancy etc., etc.), I do the open mic. at Pepperbelly’s in Fairfield, CA (where I live) every Wenesday, and you’ll be glad to know that I have worked my way up to having a solid 4-minute routine…little by little, right?

Aaaaanyway, as a Latino I’m very proud of you, and as an aspiring comic I’m inspired by your accomplishments. Good job, Bill. Keep it up!

Bill was energetic, original, and very funny.

He was one of the best comedians
we hosted all year as part of our Campus Comedy Series--Eastern New Mexico University.

From Victor

Bill Santiago - just more naturally funny - intellectual, witty - drew experience from real life and also had a sort of comic physical presence - shyness at first was pretty apparent but suited him - he got more comfortable and took cues from the audience. i thought it seemed pretty inherent to his performance - the best tonight by far.

Mr. Santiago-
I am such a huge fan!! You make me laugh so hardcore! Is it possible that i could get an autographed picture or something like that?? That would be sweet! I have plans of being a comic during college next year. Thanks for being an inspiration!

Hi Bill,
I saw you perform at Mother Jone's "State of the Union" in New York City last year at Town Hall. I've been dying to see another performance (I've never seen a comedian who could make me laugh so much!), but I'm having a difficult time finding a calendar of bookings.
Do you have one online anywhere? Is there a way I can access one? I really love your work and appreciate your humor!
Thanks!!
Elena
