No, it's not a metaphor. Really.

Comedy writer and playwright David Castro shared some impressions of Thursday's Republican presidential debate:

Some final thoughts on the 10 Guys at Open Mic Nite at the Chuckle Hut in Cleveland:

1. How did Ben Carson operate as a neurosurgeon when he can barely open his eyes?
2. I want to see Trump and Rand Paul in a wind tunnel.
3. Jeb Bush isn't even the kind of guy his brother would want to have a beer with.
4. Marco Rubio says he knows what it's like living paycheck to paycheck. What else does he know?
5. Mike Huckabee said the Supreme Court isn't the Supreme Being. Is this that Cthulu I've heard so much about?
6. Chris Christie is clearly running to be the head of the Five Families.
7. Mike Huckabee believes in DNA so his finally accepting the heliocentric view of our solar system is not out of the question.
8. This Kasich guy - he arm-wrestled Carly Fiorina and won the right to be here, right?
9. Ted Cruz - look up the etymology of decimated. You were decimated tonight.
10. Scott Walker looks like the church group youth leader that parents know not to leave their kids with.

"Man's Dominion," David's show about a 1916 lynching in Erwin, Tennessee drew great reviews at the Hollywood and Toronto Fringe Festivals. The good people of Erwin once lynched a circus elephant. No, really.

"Man's Dominion" is at the Chicago Fringe Festival – Sept 3 – 13, 2015.
