I got tickets to see Eddie Izzard for Christmas, which was yesterday at the Oakland aircraft hanger. 
I bet you're all jealous of my ox, now!  Eddie was awesome as usual.

CAKE OR DEATH?
I didn't know he was still touring. I'll have to keep an eye for him when he's on the East Coast next.

Damn, I wanted to go to that show but the tickets were a bit pricey.

I like my water with hops, malt, hops, yeast, and hops.

Only way we could afford it was nose bleed on the sides, but it was worth the neck crick.

Back in the late 80's we used to take a walk up from our house (in Brixton) to a pub in Balham to see the comedy on a Friday evening, Eddie Izzard was a regular. Back then he was head and shoulders above the other performers and we got to see all the routines that made him famous from only a few feet away for the price of a couple of pints of beer.
Excellent.

Well, same here, except a pint of beer at Oracle Arena costs $32, and a few inches away costs $400.

They had a live twitter feed on the jumbotron. One of the tweets was, "@eddieizzard are your pants stuffed?"

As soon as the lights came up for the intermission, the first words out of my mouth to the little woman were "did you find his wang distracting?"

Okay. Thanks for the elaboration. They had the jumbotrons in Chicago, I was having trouble visualizing how you would rickroll someone via twitter.
