SHECKYmagazine announces a new regular columnist, Doug Hecox. The D.C.-based comic and author (“Graze Expectations,” “Star Spangled Banter”) needed an outlet for certain humorous observations that only comedians would find funny. We’re sure that both comedians and comedy fans will want to check out Doug Hecox: Writer of Wrongs” on a regular basis:
My goal is not only to do a knock-knock joke on stage, but to do one that is nearly a half-hour long. That way, I won’t have to bother with remembering a wide variety of jokes in my usual set and I won’t have to worry about messing up the order. The goal is one big knock-knock– a 25-minute set-up, and a 5-minute punchline. It may not be possible yet but, like science fiction, we know that nothing is impossible. One day it may become so. In fact, one day, knock-knock jokes will be expected of every stand-up comedian, like Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonations and references to Viagra are today.
