Before I left Chicago I was invited to do a monologue show with the subject “Guilty pleasures”. They finally posted the video, so I thought I would share it.

Yeah, I asked if they could correct it, haven’t heard back but I’m sure they will. ---

Me and the wife sat down and watched this together… Dude, this was entertaining as hell, and you hit it right on the head on how it feels to get started in this hobby… And yes, your ass definitely gets it every once in a while… Mine was while walking back to the parking lot after the St Patrick’s Day Parade, and definitely from a teenager I’m pretty sure I should not (and did not) interact with after the fact… Sometimes, you just need to walk away… Politely, of course… ---

Haha so ass grabbing is a thing? Never had that happen yet Perhaps this video explains the Thorazine and clears Venkman’s name. He just wanted o get to his car! ---

Sounds like a good reason to suit up to me. Now I can’t wait to finish my pack even more! 😃 ---

I wish I had attended the St Patrick’s Day Parade for real. I’ve been told your sense of humor is quite “in there”. Seriously, the wife and I both enjoyed this monologue. Would love to see more 😉 ---

Can’t believe I didn’t see this right away, this was fantastic! I was totally expecting you to say that the cop grabbed (and lifted) your ass too. ---

That was very funny:) You also reminded me of Rob Reiner! You’ve got a fan in portugal now. It’s sad and lonely to be the only known person with a [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) in a whole country. Perhaps someday I’ll gather the courage to go out in costume somewhere! ---

Alan, That was an awesome monologue!! Very funny and entertaining. I loved the photo-buttgrabbing story! This makes me want to get my uniform done and get out to cons! I just wish there were more GB fans in my area of northeast PA… ---
