VERY OT. Speaking of SNL, I think Mad TV is MUCH funnier and more daring and creative in its skits. Bobbie Lee is one of the zaniest and best physical comics alive IMHO. I don't know the names of the other cast members, but the one who plays the over-the-top coach persona is also brilliant.

"They might tow it away, but they'll never steal it." There's a full transcript here: http://snltranscripts.jt.org/92/92fchameleon.phtml It was one of their best ad parodies, I think. They nailed a lot of the cliches that were in luxury car ads at the time. "Every inch of the Chameleon XLE is a pinnacle of urban design. "There's attention to detail. Like three mismatched wheel covers, and one exposed rim in school-bus yellow. Standard. "A broken taillight repaired with duct tape. Standard. "Retractable antenna. Standard. "The body of a Pontiac with a driver's-side door from an Oldsmobile Delta '88. All standard." _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
