For the first time in a decade, Tom Arnold has returned to stand-up comedy. His tour has taken him all over the country, including St. Paul's Comedy Gallery in mid-February. The actor/comedian said this year's Oscar front-runner, "The Hurt Locker," reminded him of some of his favorite shows -- the ones he did for the troops with the USO.

"People always say, 'What's it like in Afghanistan or Iraq?' Watch 'The Hurt Locker' and you'll get the vibe of what it's like. It describes the feeling that I've had, and I assume the soldiers have, too, of being there."
