For the last few weeks, Carol Hartsell has been live tweeting the open mic that happens each Monday in Ochi's Lounge here at Comix. The mic is called Ochi's Motel and it's one of the best in the city, and because of Carol's hard work, you can get a taste of all the insanity that happens when comics stop being polite and start doing new material. Read on to see Carol's tweets from this past week and don't forget to follow carolhartsell and comixny on Twitter to keep up with the fun!
