About Me
- Name: Snave
- Location: La Grande, Oregon, United States
I am a native eastern Oregonian, and have lived here 50 of my 62 years. I left at 20, but was back by age 32 to be near my parents to help them in times of need. I don't fit in politically here because I view things from a decidedly left wing perspective... but that's o.k. because I love the people, I love the area and for the most part I like living here. I enjoy family time, listening to music, reading books, traveling, bird watching, hiking, backpacking, watching movies, keeping up on politics, watching sports, sitting at the computer so much I get sores on my ass, and playing music... if you need a band for your party or celebration, let me know; I play keyboards and sing for a rock and roll band, and we do mostly "classic rock". (I also like to play guitar and bass and other instruments, but those are for my private enjoyment only!) I am mainly an agnostic/skeptic, but would consider myself spiritual. I work in schools and in clinical settings as a speech/language therapist. It is enjoyable work and it pays some of the bills. I have a rather unpredictable sense of humor, which can get me in trouble at times, but hey, is life worth living without laughter? I think not!

I have a Saturday Night Live video. It's an old one from the days of Chevy Chase and Eddie Murphy. I haven't really watched the new ones. I remember that for a while anyway, the quality went down, so I stopped watching, but we watched it once in NZ, and there were some funny sketches then, so I don't know.
The one I bought was of commercials. It was really good. :-)
This one has some great political stuff. The "X-Presidents" is a superhero team of, well... ex-presidents. There are a bunch of "Fun With Real Audio" segments where the animator has taken actual audio of Bush, Larry King, Ross Perot, etc. and put them to some hilarious visuals... there is one called "Bush Dress-Up" that has me in stitches every time. The superhero team of "The Ambiguously Gay Duo" (Ace and Gary) is also lots of fun, and Stephen Colbert does the voice of Ace. "The Religetables" is a good takeoff on "Veggie Tales", and "The Passion of the Dumpty" includes actual footage from a Mel Gibson interview. This is certainly one worth looking at!
I saw it on TV. Hilarious stuff. I especially liked the adventures of Saddam and Osama...
Saturday TV Funhouse has consistantly been one of the best parts of SNL. My favorite ones were "Hetero-man" in which a superhero tries to make gay men strait and the Charlie Brown Christmas take-off in which Jesus is totally disgusted by Pat Robertson and his ilk. "Christmastime For the Jews" was also hilarius.
The ones you mentioned are also favs of mine.
Other than TV Funhouse, SNL has pretty-much sucked this year, with a few exceptions.
Yeah, even I have to admit it's gotten pretty lame. What kind of drug were they doing when they came up with the "Out of breath jogger from 1992" skit?
Hmmm I'll admit it now
I'm an SNL virgin, never ever seen it, never ever seen a skit from it.
Bugger, for shame.
Those TV Funhouse episodes are great. That and Weekend Update are about the only parts of the show that are still funny. There was one TV Funhouse episode about this guy who would distract the public from real political scandals by creating fake Hollywood celebrity scandals. It was funny but it was almost too realistic.
