Wanda Sykes Tickets - Wanda Sykes Hits the Road This Summer

Wanda Sykes may not know the fate of her eponymous Fox show yet, but she already has her summer months mapped out. The comedienne, who was ranked among Entertainment Weekly's "25 Funniest People in America," will embark on a short summer comedy tour beginning with an appearance in Atlantic City on June 4. Fans with <a href="http://www.stubhub.com/wanda-sykes-tickets/">Wanda Sykes tickets</a> can also see her in Detroit, Mich. (June 10); Mount Pleasant, Mich. (June 11); Hammond, Ind. (June 12); Pala, Calif. (Aug. 21) and Saratoga, Calif. (Oct. 2). Head to <a href="http://www.stubhub.com/">StubHub.com</a> for Wanda Sykes tickets.

The season finale of The Wanda Skyes Show, Skyes' hour-long program on the Fox network, aired on April 24, but the female stand-up comic has yet to find out whether her show will be picked up for a second season. The late-night talk show featured the likes of Chris Rock, Ray Romano, Lisa Kudrow and Erykah Badu in its first season, but Entertainment Weekly reports that NBC's long-running Saturday Night Live served as some stiff competition for The Wanda Sykes Show. Skyes' show airs on Saturdays, and since Fox lost its bid for Conan O'Brien (who inked a deal with TBS) she is the only late-night presence on the network, which is definitely in her favor.

Ironically, The New Adventures of Old Christine, the comedy in which Wanda Sykes co-stars, may not be back next season, either! Entertainment Weekly reports that the Emmy Award-winning show starring Julie Louis-Dreyfus (best known for her hilarious role as Elaine on Seinfeld) has yet to know whether CBS will pick it up for the fall 2010 season. The season five finale of The New Adventures of Old Christine aired on May 12, and fans can stay tuned to learn the fate of the show.

The fate of Wanda Sykes' television shows may remain up in the air, but that doesn't mean her career in comedy is slowing down. Sykes was recently honored with the Stephen F. Kolzak Award at the 21st annual GLADD Media Awards, held in Beverly Hills on April 17. The award is presented to an openly LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) media professional for making a significant impact in promoting equal rights for the LGBT community. The award was presented to Skyes by high school student Constance McMillen, who was banned from attending her prom. Skyes began her acceptance speech with a heartfelt thanks before resorting to her signature comedic style by joking, "I should just give this award to you, but I'm not going to do it because this means a lot to me."

A native of Portsmouth, Va., Wanda Skyes graduated from Hampton University with a Bachelor of Science degree, but kicked off her career in comedy not long after getting her diploma, performing at a Coors Light Super Talent Showcase in Washington, D.C. Skyes worked as a performer and writer on the critically acclaimed HBO program the Chris Rock Show for five years, earning three Primetime Emmys as well as the 1999 Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Special. Skyes won the American Comedy Award for Outstanding Female Stand Up Comic in 2001 and the accolades kept on coming, such as her recent GLADD Media Award.

Bad Day for the WSJ A recurrent theme in my articles has been that our current economic system is intended to steal your wealth and that a vast amount of information being taught as economics is intended to justify this stealing and to trick you into falling for its program. I would sometimes refer to the condition as middle child personality instead of middle child syndrome, mainly because I do not believe it is a sickness or disease, rather I see it as a special need. Characteristics of Middle Children Technically, a middle child is an individual who is born in between two or more siblings. Being born in between is a bigger problem than what we think. Before we cite the characteristics,...
