Sketch comic Jake Goldman’s father was responsible for this…

Really!

The answer can be found in a box in the basement of Dennis Goldman, the former Syracuse wide receivers coach. On a grainy videotape, Goldman compiled highlights of Tyree’s college career to show N.F.L. scouts.

So, That should give you all the reason to check out Barrett and Goldman Presents at Rififi this Saturday. Giants fans owe him. HUGE!

A Comedic Dispatch From Little Neck, NY

February 15, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Everyone says that newspapers are dying, and that very well may be the case. Nonetheless, I am a great fan of the print medium, and will continue to buy newspapers until I no longer have the option. Currently, I am particularly fond of my local paper, The Greenpoint Star. In addition to including lots of information that I cannot get anywhere else, each week is a treasure trove of unexpected comedy.

In this week’s issue, I am partial to a Letter to the Editor by one Mark Lane of Little Neck, NY. Lane penned a humorous missive entitled “Adventures in Grocery Shopping”, and decided to share it with the general public. In order to give Lane’s writing more exposure, I will now re-type it in full so that the Lolabrigada.com readership may enjoy it as well.

I am not doing this as some sort of snide comment on Lane’s comedic attempt. I am truly enamored with the idea of sending the editor a funny letter, and I think it’s great that the Greenpoint Star has printed it. You, the reader, are now oh-so-close to reading Lane’s latest dispatch, “Adventures in Grocery Shopping”. In fact, it is only one click away.
