Austin

Mike Faerber attends the University of Texas along with the 2005 National Champion Longhorn Football team. He majors in Radio-TV-Film or whatever major you say after he asks, "What’s your major?" Mike rarely skips class and almost hurls every time he takes a shot. In his off time, he gets naked, complains, and dreams of being a comic. Mike is funny. Mike isn’t very funny. Mike saw his first pair of breasts at age 17. At age 19 he finally came to... the realization that boobs are awesome. He also grew a beard in his two year coma, and has formed a search party (made up of delicious snacks) for his mouth. Scientists once tried to extract DNA from his hair, but instead ended up extracting even more hair from his DNA.

Comedy Writing

I’m Back, Baby! (Ribs)

Yes, the Summer has gotten to me, also the Hard Way's Retirement. And I've decided that blogging, although indeed a fad, is not so for me... for now. I feel it is my duty, to you and to myself, to keep writing on a regular basis. Whether its didactic essays on the human condition, or dirty words on passed-out people, I vow to never stop writing.<br />

Column Ideas

<p>As I have discovered after a year of <a href="/columns/mikey/archives.htm" title="The Hard Way by Mike Faerber">The Hard Way</a>, keeping up with a column can be a tiresome task. Week in and week out you're looking for new topics, and before you know it, you're doubting your own writing ability. SOB! </p>

Georgia on My Mind

To all the readers I've disappointed, I offer condolences on my blogging infrequency. However written words, as flowery as they may be, make little difference without action to support them. Thus I shall humble myself to the service of guiding you through the rough territory of the inside scoop, the flavor of which will be PICstaffmembers 'n cream.

Fan Appreciation

Fans help me sleep at night... because i can't stand the room being hot and stuffy with the insecurity of failed jokes. Having just received a strange email from someone in taiwan, and having not blogged in a good while, and having lapses in my Hard Way Posts. I'd thought I'd give you guys some props...<br />

The Downside of Growing Up

Last Sunday I turned 20, and although some would classify it as a birthday that is ignored and forgotten, I'd have to disagree. Mainly because the majority of my birthdays have been forgotten. But also because if you haven't noticed, Twenty-teen is not a word. I'm no longer a teenager.<br />

And He’s a Doctor TOO!

It's true! I've fallen in love with a tall, dark, bottle shaped man named Dr. Pepper. I wrote a Hard Way on this when I just started, but I feel people aren't really getting the point. My own roommates underestimate my fanaticism... with the exception of Adam, who mentioned a certain commercial. Fade to that commercial. <br />
