Is that supposed to be painfully funny?
Ouch. I laugh and ache simultaneously.
Congratulations.
I thought gentle, honest Iago stole you away for good.
Anyway, I usually don't like commenting on my own work, just let it speak for itself, but yes it is supposed to be a mixture of pain and humor.

In other words...oxymoronic.
Like the pleasurable pain of losing your virginity.
lol
nice
I agree to agree

Yeah, the SNL cast has always been cursed. I think that might be why they're so funny. They know that they're short on time, so they leave it all out there.

There is on the blog an altavista translater spanish english for all the blog
Enjoy!
Sometimes perusing the "Recently Updated" section of Blogger pays off.
You are quite the wit yourself.
I tried to follow along with the SNL list, but am too confused today to match the causes of death with the pictures.
Phil Hartman was murdered. A pity and a great loss, indeed.
And Dana Carvey had open heart surgery in 2000 and the surgeon erroneously operated on the wrong artery. Oops. Big lawsuit there. Dana reportedly missed appearing on Hollywood Squares because of this incident.
Live From New York is a great, dishy read about the mayhem that is/was SNL.
You're getting more and more cutsey-pie by the day.
My blog crashed, Justin. I wrote a post asking people who were linked to remind me. I'm in the process of remodelling it and getting it back up to snuff.
cutsie pie ?
lol sorry that makes me smile
-wip
wipster:
I use the word suicide like 7 times in this post and 'die'12 times and people are saying cutsy-pie? I don't get it, myself.
But wait to 'anonymous' reads my Vietnam Posts. They'll think I'm so adorable.
You're not cutsey, Justin, you're a weiner.
reese, is weiner referring to his name or something else?
I presume he has one, yes.

Thanks nice comment people.
J.
reese: Thanks for the clarification.
I guess you are trying to delete my self esteem.
Justin.
P.S. Get it? Delete?
L1:
I've seen that book and want to read it. But knowing about stuff that I am writing about tends to make it harder.
It is a good thing that you didn't try to coordinate the causes with the people. It was only with a song in my heart and a vague awareness of some deaths that I began writing away.

Justin, I guess I was just trying to EXCHANGE some witty banter.
Get it - EXCHANGE?? It's kind of a 69 thing. As in, you know, mutual. Get it?
(how come the only link you have on your site is to some gay science journal? Hmmm? Get some sexy links up there)
