Quickie Post #3: 9 Year Olds Describe the Decade

I'm exceptionally busy with my various projects, which is why the blog has been a little thin the last few days. Still, I'd like to keep the blog current, so I'm just going to post a couple of quickies, with not much commentary. I usually like to add my own spin, often with a lengthy (windy) dissertation.

Quickie Post #3: Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood

Here is the last of three "quickie" posts of classic Saturday Night Live clips, to save my aching eyes from blogging for a little while.

Quickie Post #1: Weekend Update with Jane Curtin

The day has been long, and my eyes are a little bleary. And if you've been here before, you've probably read me whine about how hard it is to find interesting things to write on weekends. So, how 'bout I cheat a little bit? I get a bit of a breather, and you get to have a little fun!

Now that you're on board with the idea (you are, right?), here is the first of three posts of classic Saturday Night Live clips.
