Palminteri, like Chazz
November 23, 2015
When I first started doing stand up comedy, I thought about using a stage name. Palminteri was butchered by people my entire life. Italian last names sound pretty much exactly how they’re spelled, but it’s a last name people seldom get right the first time. I considered my stage alias to be my first and

HOW GRANDPA DIED
November 17, 2015
Upon returning from a trip to Puerto Rico with my best friend, I had a sense something was not right.

Absent
November 9, 2015
My sister moved to Florida just before my nephew’s first birthday. Babies, of course, have no real concept of space or time, so the last time I hugged and kissed him, was like any other time for him… I’d see him in a week. Except this time, I wouldn’t, and I just wanted to hold

When my parents helped move me into my current home in Astoria, I proudly gave my Ralph Steadman’s ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas’ illustration prime real estate in my studio. It was a poster my Mom always hated. When I got it, she scoffed at it and said, “it looks like a demon.” She

Shopping with Mom
October 17, 2015
Mom was chatting with someone in Bob’s in West Islip, as I dragged my feet, trying to look at clothes. I was in High School, and abnormally tiny. Though a teenager, I was still buying clothes from Kids R’ Us, mostly because, kids clothes was all I fit into. Juniors/teen clothes looked like maternity clothes

Zoo
October 6, 2015
It felt like we walked a mile to see the polar bears. For some reason, walking in the hot San Diego sun with my family at the zoo was particularly exhausting. The San Diego zoo was supposedly one of the best, if not the best zoo in the country. My mother and I agreed, it
