This milestone feels like a pretty cool thing to me. While not an expert by any means, 10 years feels like I can call myself a comic that at least has some knowledge and experience of this crazy and awesome art form. A lot has happened since that first gig on February 16, 2005 in Village C Alumni Lounge during my junior year of college at Georgetown University <span class=\"text_exposed_show\">for the &#8220;Funniest Man On Campus Competition&#8221; in Washington, DC. I did my first 1.5-ish years in DC and I still and always will consider that my comedy roots and I have such a love for all the comics that always come out of DC. So many awesome peeps. I was doing some acting and improv before I started standup, I&#8217;m currently 31 years old, which means 1\/3 of my life has been dedicated to comedy. I could go on for days, but in short, it&#8217;s been an amazing ride, where I&#8217;ve gotten to travel all over the country, met some of the coolest people ever and I&#8217;ve gained some of the greatest friends. I hope to continue doing comedy for the next 60 or 70 years and perhaps 90 years if science allows. Thanks to everyone who&#8217;s been part of the journey with me and helped me along the way. It&#8217;s so many people, I can&#8217;t believe it. I only hope that I can do more and be better from this point forward. &#8211; The Weiss at Year 10&#8242;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I have been doing stand-up comedy for 10 years (sometimes it looks like 3, but sometimes more than that!).
