A Sneak Preview of the Fall Semester

Three vampires walk into a bar and sit down at a table. The waitress comes over and asks the first vampire what he would like. The first vampire responds, "I vould like some blood."

The waitress turns to the second vampire and asks what he would like. The vampire responds, "I vould like some blood."

The waitress turns to the third vampire and asks what he would like. The vampire responds, "I vould like some plasma."

The waitress looks up and says, "Let me see if I have this order correct. You want two bloods and a blood light?"

We'll be friends forever (on Facebook)

So for those who missed it, the year is over. (How did you miss an entire year? So self-centered with your "coma" and all that business.) Anyhow, Saturday night ended with all the Skits sitting around not knowing what to do, but we soon figured it out. And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives, such as where we're going to be when we turn 25.
Personally, I keep thinking times will never change, keep on thinking things will always be the same. But then I realized when we leave this year we won't be coming back, no more hanging out cause we're on a different track, and (I thought to myself) "if you got something that you need to say you better say it right now cause you don't have another day." It seems so true because we're moving on and we can't slow down; these memories are playing like a film without sound and I keep thinking of the night in June (May?). Ultimately, I guess I didn't know much of love, but it came too soon.
Oh Skitsos; and there was me and you, and then it got real blue. We'd stay at home talkin' on the telephone and we would get so excited, we'd get so scared, laughing at our selves thinking life's not fair. And this is how it feels:
As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together.
And as our lives change, from whatever
We will still be, friends forever.
I continued to think: So if we get the big jobs and we make the big money, when we look back now, will that joke still be funny? Will we still remember everything we learned in school? Still be trying to break every single rule? Will little brainy Bobby be the stockbroker man? Can Heather find a job that won't interfere with her tan? I keep -- I keep thinking that it's not goodbye; keep on thinking it's a time to fly. And this is how it feels:
As we go on, we remember
All the times we had together.
And as our lives change, from whatever
We will still be, friends forever.
I then continued in my line of rhetorical questions, asking: Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now? Can we survive it out there? Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end, and suddenly it's like we're women and men. Will the past be a shadow that will follow us round? Will these memories fade when I leave this town? I keep -- I keep thinking that it's not goodbye; keep on thinking it's a time to fly.

So that was my mental journey Saturday night. Then I realized that only McGuerty is actually graduating. And then I felt sad because McGuerty is leaving and he's taller than me. Then I got happy because I realized I won't look so short with the group anymore because McGuerty is so much taller than me and he'll be gone. And then I felt sad again because I'd reminded myself that McGuerty was graduating. And then I pooted (which, needless to say, made me sad).

Bantha Fodder

All right, first things first, we suck at keeping this blog up. I feel sorry for any one who actually reads this thing hoping to see what is going on in the lives of the Skits. But we did have a good show a while back, semester is almost over, etc. That's not what I'm here to talk about. I'm here to tell you of the funniest thing I have seen in time immemorial.
For reasons I don't want to understand, I turned on my TV today to find that it was playing in slow-motion. I'm not really sure I can convey how hilarious it is to watch Seinfield with every thing occuring at half speed. The dialouge is so bass as to be nearly incomprehensible - even the women speak like Xerxes in 300, their voices smooth like warm oil on well worn leather and deep as thunder. The theme song sounds like a funeral dirge played by the phantom of the opera. But by far the funniest thing is the laughter. It's like the entire audience is of the Hutt family, delivering deep belly laughs after each punchline:
"Iiiiiiit'ssssss aaaaaahhhhh jjuuuuunnnniorrrrrrr mmmmintttddd"
"HOHOHOHOHOHO"

Clarification

Yeah, that's right, world. We rehearse until 10:00 some nights. You just wait to see what we have to bring, world. You just wait and see.

No, really, though, Scharfman's right. We have a show coming up.

Hey, does everyone remember when we restarted the blog? It was really cool and there was stuff written on it like everyday. But that was a long time ago, now lost beneath the sands of time, slowly decaying under our feet...Until one day, one man stood up for what He believed in. He even ended sentences in prepositions and didn't care, just because He wanted to. He brought back the blog because He wanted to tell the world about the Skits' next show. And so He typed:

The Skits-o-Phrenics will be hosting a sketch comedy festival featuring the super-cool group Boris' Kitchen (from Brandeis University) and Cornell's own improvisationally humorous group of performers, The Whistling Shrimp!
The show will be at the Statler Auditorium on March 9 at 8 pm for the low low price of $5! But wait, there's more. Not only does that $5 get you a great comedy show, it also gets you a complementary ticket stub!

And then He resumed writing a paper in the library.
