In Praise Of Amy.

Meet Amy Sedaris.

Amy is someone that, if you haven't done so by now, you should really make an honest effort to watch out for. When I say "watch out for", I don't mean in the sense that she is dangerous and unstable and should be avoided at all cost (despite what the above pictures might imply). No, I mean that she is a person of indescriable talent and humor and would enhance your life with joy heretofore undiscovered. In short, she is hilarious.

Some of you may have first been introduced to Amy via her character, Jerri Blank on the short-lived TV show, Strangers With Candy. Or maybe you have seen her in one of her appearances on David Letterman's show or being interviewed by Conan O'Brien. If this is the case, then you've witnessed her hyper-manic style which is offset by her inate sexiness. Quite a combination if I may say so.

Dear Amy is on my short-list of "people to meet" and if possible, sit down to a cup of coffee with. Yes, that would be quite nice. Maybe she would bring me one of her delicious homemade cupcakes. I like cupcakes.

Next week: My love and admiration for her brother, David Sedaris.
