My Matrices of Influence (Comedy)

This came from Rainn Wilson’s website www.soulpancake.com

List 5 people who influence your art (Comedy) and how

(This is not a final product)
1. Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld (Creators of Seinfeld)
– My first favorite comedy show was Seinfeld. Even though I have other shows nowadays that I think are written fantastically I still have a soft spot in my heart for Seinfeld. Its use of comedy in an everyday sense to be is brilliant. If you sit and watch two guys at a diner they act almost exactly like how Jerry and George are portrayed in the show.

2. Monty Python
– These guys are some of the smartest comedians I have ever heard of. Some people may see them as silly (They are). Some people may see them as irreverent (They are). Some people may see them as very intelligent (They are). They were all smart social commentators as well as experts at making people laugh. I wish that kind of comedy was more prominent nowadays in America.

3. Adam Sandler
– This guy was my favorite comedian for years. I loved is slight retardation as well as his charm that he always had with women. When I was younger I could sit and watch all of his movies over and over again.

4. Conan O’Brien
– The first time I REALLY watched his late night show I was rolling on the floor laughing (I could have just used rofl for the first time) His show had a great blend of absurdity with intelligence as well as just flat out funny interaction with Conan and his guest. He is a very smart guy (Harvard Grad) and he has written for two of the funniest shows in American history (The Simpsons and SNL) .

5. Jim Carrey
– My first comedic hero was none other than Jim Carrey. I remember quoting him when I was in the 4th grade. He made and makes me laugh everytime that I see or hear him. He hasn’t sold out nor has he outgrown his comedy. He is still just as silly. He also is a great actor outside of comedy. The Truman show is one of my favorite movies ever.

My Prayer to the Almighty God

Father,

I thank you right now for your Son Jesus Christ and for what he has done for me. I thank for being the Almighty God that you are and cannot praise you enough for who you are. I thank you for being my King and Father and for loving me unconditionally. Lord I want to praise your name above all else including myself, my hobbies, my job, my schooling, my studies, and my other relationships. You are my master and I am your servant. Help me to keep this close and to abide by your every command. I pray that you help me to keep you first in my life and that all of my goals point to you. I thank you for saving me and for continuing to sanctify me through my life on this earth. Please help me to love others the way that you have taught me and to continue to show your love as your reveal it through me. Lord help me to be the person you have created me to be. Help me to share you with others and to tell them about the gospel of Jesus Christ. I thank you for your will and praise you for being God and my saviour.

Amen
