Here comes Eddie Izzard

A bunch of our friends will join us in Portland on Tuesday to see Eddie Izzard on his latest stand-up comedy tour. If you haven’t heard of this amazing British, cross-dressing comedian, you haven’t been reading my blog. He is the funniest comedian I have ever seen, and his bits are usually incredibly smart and often based on history. We saw him in Portland on his last tour, Sexie, in 2003. I laughed so hard that my face hurt the next day. He’s that funny. And if you haven’t seen his U.S. TV show, The Riches, on F/X, check that out, too.

In recognition of how cool Tuesday will be, here is one of my favorite Eddie Izzard bits. It’s about religion:
