Wednesday, Oxy is honoring him with a marathon reading of Slaughterhouse Five on the campus, from 10 am to...well, however long it takes to read it. For some serious hilarity, check out the Fox News obituary of Vonnegut, where they call him a writer of "leftist screeds," and end by saying he died an unhappy man, as all writers of leftist screeds must. I'm surprised they didn't have all-day coverage of his arrival in Hell!
My name is Chris Oliver. I'm a stand up comic, writer and English (ESL) teacher living in Los Angeles. With my wife, comic Bobbie Oliver, I am the co-proprietor of Tao Comedy Studio. I direct the web series Saving Face (starring Bobbie Oliver and Sally Mullins), host the comedy/talk show podcast Psychedelicatessen Radio (with Bobbie) and host the music podcast Sleestak Lightnin!!!. I was born and raised in Stuart, Fla. (Jensen Beach, to be more precise), a small, beachy suburb north of Palm Beach on the Atlantic coast. Went to LaGrange College in GA. Got married after graduating and moved to Athens, GA. In '97, we moved to L.A. Psychedelicatessen is the name of a band I was in in high school and college. You can find links to my comedy videos, podcasts, web series and more right below.
