Darrell Hammond, a guy who's been on SNL now for longer than even Phil Hartman and Kevin Nealon, did a Bing Crosby impression this evening, and as Bing, he impersonated Johnny Carson, where he does the mind-reading of what's inside the envelope...

A car on fire
Star Jones
War in Iraq

What're three things that people don't want to get into?

You know, I'm glad you caught onto that, because I got the impression she was going along with it, but it didn't seem like it was in the script, you know? Pohler's a great chick... i wish Sanz was around to do the Katelyn and Rick sketches.

OMG, my favorite Sanz was when he did Gene Shalit. I don't think I ever laughed so hard!

Aaron Nevel... is the the buffed-up singer who, during the Katrina skit they did last season with Steve Carrell as Ray Romano, was helping rebuild?

Haha, why the world did I put Bing Crosby when I KNEW it was Rich Little? Even as I was typing this post, I remember thinking, he was on The Muppet Show.
