Chris Porter Gets Around
I was looking for YouTube videos of my friend good Chris Porter, comedian extraordinaire, to send to my brother and I discovered that there are a lot of Chris Porters out there. The more the merrier, right? So I thought I'd put them together in a little montage, if you will, because I found them so diverse and uplifting.
I'm particularly fond of this one:
Matt Pelech vs. Chris Porter 1/5/08
I love a good beat down as much as the next Palsy-ite, but what was with the two-stepping refs? They skated around like courting zebras for the first two minutes doing what?? Watching to see if the guys were going to decide to stop and shake hands on their own? What do they wait for, someone to lose a molar before they step in?
My favorite part was the lady in the background who kept "Woooo Hooo!"-ing and yelled "That's what I'm talking about!" You could practically hear her mock-fighting in the air next to the camera. A little pent up aggression, ma'am? Too many PB and J's to make in the mornings for the kiddies? Man, I'd hate to have been her kid. I'd have had a lot more concussions if she'd been my mom. Could you picture it?
"Oh, don't worry about Joshie, he's just down the street getting beat up by the neighbor kid. I expect him for dinner, though. Maybe we should have something soft in case he lost teeth..."
As Contestant Number Two, in this next short film experience, I think Chris kicks some serious boot-ay. (Did we go to the same dance school? I think we did...) Chris Porter shakes it AND bakes it in this little number:
Seriously, Chris has a real future in this. (You'll note I'm not making a Napolean Dynamite comment. It'd be too easy, people.)
But here's the real deal, in all his audible glory:
Beltin' it out for all to hear. That's right, Chris, raise your voice and be heard! Everyone's a winner, let's hug.
This is one of Chris that I love since both of us do a riding-the-bus-gig. And, since he references gas being pricey at two bucks a gallon. The times, they are a changin'.
Chris Porter Last Comic Standing
All right ya'll, that's all of my Porter news. Tune in text time for my new product line of Porter lunch boxes and Porter action figures.

Josh, Thanks for coming to Tacoma Washington recently. My wife bought tickets for a night out with friends and I'd never heard of you, so I really didn't know what to expect. But I have to say- YOU REALLY SLAYED EM' DUDE! You have one beautiful niche going there. Please take this in the spirit in which it is intended, cuz you are indeed a national treasure. Who'd of guessed it would be ok to tell and laugh at cripple jokes in public without having to look over your shoulder. Nobody has been able to do that, until you. I laughed so hard I cried . . . like about four times! You are not crippled you are blessed, and may may your comedy career last forever. That was a wonderful night out, Josh. Keep coming back.
