Hi all, update to my blog, you ask? What is happening in the life of Ryan Hamilton?
Well soldiers, recently, I was named a top-five, national finalist in a competition called 'Next Great Comic' sponsored by Sierra Mist. I was picked out of hundreds of comics from across the country. The overall winner is selected by online voting based on audio clips on the site
This competition is a big deal to me, and I could use your help. Vote as much as you can. Vote everyday. Vote early. Vote often.
Voting takes place at http://www.nextgreatcomic.com
You may need to use this link if you can't open the site directly...
http://www.nextgreatcomic.com/home.php
Voting ends Friday, April 1.
If I win, in addition to being your new best friend, I will be a part of the next Sierra Mist ad campaign, be eligible for up to 23 weeks of paid comedy club work, and have access to audition for professional comedy industry talent scouts! This is a huge opportunity for whoever wins!
Please feel free to check out my website to learn more about me and my comedy at www.ryanham.com.
Obviously, the key to winning this competition is to get many, many people to vote everyday, but just as important is getting them to forward information on to other people who will vote a lot everyday and then forward to even more people.
If you enjoy clean, fresh stand-up comedy, that's what I always try to do.
I truly appreciate your help! Thanks!
Ryan
Hey Hammy, good to see ya on the web. Have no fear, I have had all my friends here at school vote for you everyday so I account for at least 2%. Anyways, it looks like you are coming to Cleveland in April. I already bought my ticket for your show (you owe me 10 bones) so I hope to see ya.

Hey, last time you stayed at our place, you were eating tootsie-rolls on the green couch and you had one that must of had a hair in it because I saw you spit it back into the wrapper. Back then, I thought I could trust you to throw it in the garbage, but guess what I found in smashed between the couch cushions?! A half-chewed tootsie roll with a hair in it. I did a comparison at the school, and the hair in the tootsie roll is mine. I have no idea how it got there. But there's no way those are my chew marks. Please chew a tootsie roll and mail it to us so we can compare samples BEFORE you come to stay with us in June.
Love Regan and the Calders
