John Consoli

I am a stand up comedian from Long Island New York. I started doing stand up later in life than most other comics. Telling my stories on stage got me to thinking that maybe I had something worth putting down on paper. Lacking paper, I have typed the words onto the "internets" for your enjoyment.

Making people laugh has always been my passion. Most comedians will tell you that the majority of us have experienced a higher than average amount of pain and misery in our lives.

I am not sure what the "average amount" is.......nor do I think of my life experiences as "pain and misery". I am the sum of these experiences and I want to tell you that it has been a wild ride.

My life has certainly been unique. So much so that just about everyone I have ever told my story too has said "You should write a book"

So, I did. I hope you enjoy it!

Once you have read "You Don't Get to Wear That", will you please take the time to leave me note with your thoughts about the story. I don't care so much if you "review" it. Let's face it, you are not a book critic (if you ARE a book critic, I apologize) I want to know how the story made you FEEL!

If you happen to come to one of my comedy shows (my schedule is available on my web site www.consolicomedy.com)Plesae come over and say hi.

Thanks!
