My Friend the Comedian!


Ever heard of "Axis of Evil"? No, not George Bush's "Axis of Evil", though the remark sparked this comedy group. Made up of Arab Americans, they make light of their experience in America, the Middle East and pretty much every where else. However, that's not the biggest news.

My friend Baraa entered a stand-up comedy contest and was one of 5 opening acts performed by Bahrainis! I was able to go to the first show and watch him perform his material, which was just great. He had never been on stage before, but he did it like a pro. It was really cool to see him up there making over a thousand people laugh.

Congratulations on a great performance Baraa!!

Maz Jobrani might take offense at being called an Arab American... He's Persian, like the cat. MEOW!
