Wow, that's... quite a review. Don't you agree, Geoff with a J and Jeff with a G?
Jeepers!
I'm speechless.
Also, it took me a minute to figure out what sketch she got that Geoff/Jeff thing from. And I was about to say it here, but I don't want to name the sketch for fear of giving everything away and thus destroying our show forever and ever.
I will, however, regale this faithful blog readership with a slightly relevant but pointless anecdote! In several sketches that Geoff and I have written together over the years, we'll have some other character in a sketch refer to us as the "Geoffs" or "Jeffs" which causes an immediate spelling crisis. So, since neither one of us want to offend the other, we came up with the scary-looking and slightly nauseating "Gjeofffs." Why the 3 f's? No idea. But whenever anybody calls us "Geoffs" or "Jeffs" or whatever, the image of that horrible word pops into my brain.
So what I'm saying is, Geoff sucks.
!!
To think I almost solved this Geoff/Jeff dichotomy so many years ago when I suggested (to his mother) that rather than take the easy route and call our new awesomely cute baby boy, "Geoff" that we take the backdoor and call him (as per the second syllable of his name), "Free". (Such are the inclinations of a post-modernist hippie.) Alas, such inspiration was vetoed. So as Elephant Larry marches towards inevitable fame and fortune there is that constant question, what if. I mean maybe if I had my way nearly 25 years ago there wouldn't be this constant and obvious tension between Geoff and Jeff (Jeff and Geoff?) that spreads like a plague throughout the rest of the group and renders the humor desperate and sterile (AND IMPOSSIBLY FUNNY!)as they in their denial try to treat it with a metaphorical antibiotic cocktail of force-fed social niceties.
Me and my buddies George, Jorge, Shawn, Shaun and Sean, are thinking of starting a sketch comedy troup/e. Any sag/je advic/se you'd give us?
In case it wasn't clear... that last comment was from... aNGD(anonymous Not Geoff's Dad)
(
OK. It wasn't the last comment. It was the one before it. George, Jorge, Shawn, Sean and Shaun intervened.
Where did...how did...who did...where did you find a reviewer that gets sketch? Congrats on a beautiful review kids. I wish I didn't live on the other side of the country so's I could see it. Well done. YAY! And...HEY! I want a link over there on the right too! You guys look to have plenty of room on your coattails...give a group a lift?
