So yeah, MPR. How did you start out, any tips, any jokes i can steal? etc.

also simonj, I know youre a comidienne. anything I should know? apart from I shouldnt try?
I just did it on a bet from my friend who flakes out on every project or idea he conceives, but this time he didn't flake and I had to go up. I think having a friend also do stand up with you is very encouraging, and having a lot of my friends there also helped.
