Today I am continuing in my pledge to let the world know of the genius that is my dad, Bob Devich. Today I will provide you with two Bob Devich-isms.
1.
I was talking to my dad, Bob Devich, on the phone yesterday and we were discussing my comedy. I said to him "I had some really good sets this weekend." There was a long pause before my dad said "Alana, why are you telling me this?" I think for a moment. "I said 'SETS,' Dad, S-E-T-S!" "Ohhhhh! That's nice."
2.
This is direct from the horse's mouth, as it were. I got in to work this morning and checked my emails. This is an email, in its entirety, which I received from Bob Devich:
Subject: A fine line
There is a fine line between smart and crazy. Which side of that line am I on? Last Wednesday, Leo on The West Wing (the President's Chief of Staff) chewed out the Ambassador from Kumar for some little thing like trying to bomb the Golden Gate Bridge. The Ambassador looked familiar. After surprisingly little research, I determined that the actor was none other than Tony Amendola, who played a character that Kramer ran into in a steam bath in the New York Health and Racquet Club. Kramer thought this guy was really Salman Rushdie, and that's why he was going by the name of Sal Bass (you know, the bass and salmon are both fish). This was the Seinfeld episode that ran on 25-Feb-93. Smart or crazy ... or cwaaaazy?
That's my Dad.
