Dear Friend: As you may know, I have been having fun for a few years doing a stand-up metaphysical comedy show called "The Lost Teachings of the Oy Veda." It's an act in which I "channel" (wink wink) a 4,000-year-old swami called The Wise Guy. (My elementary school teachers always told my mother at parent/teacher conferences, "Mrs. Bayer, Cary is an excellent student but I wish he'd stop making the other students laugh and disrupt my teaching of the class. He's really quite a wise guy." So I suppose the character has been in the making since my childhood.) I get to do my Indian accent and have a ball. Thank God...audiences have as well. Recently, Time magazine got wind of him/me and included a paragraph write-up in a 3-page story, "That's Funny!" that they're running in their November 7 issue. It's about people in their middle years and beyond who've scratched an itch in their funny bone to do stand-up professionally for the first time. (I guess they consider a 4,000-year-old as part of the middle years.) It's on page F1 in a bonus section called "Generations." Or you can find it online as well at the address below. http://www.time.com/time/generations/article/0,9171,1124318,00.html If you'd like him/me to perform at an event that you're planning, just let me know. It's easier to reach me than to reach him. Love, Cary & the Wise Guy ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
