Need A Link... Do you recall that SNL opening skit where Robert DeNiro
Edited on Wed May-26-04 02:33 PM by arwalden
was giving a news briefing and reading a list of terrorist names that were vaguely sexual-sounding.

Al Suq Madik
Ulique Madik
Huz Ben Fahrteen

I've seen an Mpeg of it somewhere, but now I can't find the link. Do you remember it?

-- Allen

edit: correction

4. Thanks Russian33 and Trotsky...
Thanks for the letting me know the correct actor was DeNiro. I knew that Pacino didn't seem right, but that's all I could think of.

8. Hi Tempest!! Thanks Very Much For Your Kind Offer...
and for checking your files to see if you had it at all... but I just downloaded it from the link (above).

I don't know what made me remember that skit today... but I did, and just started laughing even though I could BARELY remember how it went.

It's definitely a classic.

10. Good deal
Yeah, I still get a laugh from it.

Especially after listening to Bush butcher the English language.

9. HOW IN THE WORLD did Robert DeNiro
manage to keep a straight face throughout the skit. I wouldn't have been able to keep from cracking up. (I guess that's why he makes the big-bucks.)
