#SheerAwesomeness: SNL Audition Tape

OOOHHH MY Willy Nilly born and raised in Philly ... this just popped up in my newsfeed, and its kinda making my life ... WATCH!

Um yeah. Amazeballs. Dude, the Mary Kate impression was wayyyy too spot on!! HAHA!! This chick is AWESOME! The only thing I was kinda meh on was the Miley Cyrus impression. OMG! The new chick they have on SNL doing it, is for REALS the greatest thing ever. ever. ever. ever. She's the reason why I watch SNL. Dude, did you guys see the clip from Saturday??? GENIUS!!

HAHAHA YEAH! AHHHH-MAZINNGG!!!! Oh and check out this other SNL audition tape. I didn't like it as much, but the Melanie Griffith impression is creepily good!!!

Oh yeah and dude, when I lived in NYC back in 2002, I totally crashed an SNL afterparty. For reals. A guy that went to my high school used to be one of the head writers (Michael Schur), and I wanted a chance to connect with him; he had spoken at my high school a few years prior, and I figured a contact like that being so new to the city couldn't hurt. This was of course, pre social media, where if you wanted to get something done ... you had to just show up. So, one Saturday night I went up to 30 Rockefeller Plaza, and sweet talked a couple of the limo drivers out front to give up the location and approximate start time. Dude, it was so easy - its not even funny. Incredible what you can accomplish with a smile. I then showed up, struck up a conversation with this woman who was walking in commenting on how much I loved her Pashmina. She was immediately shooed right in as apparently she was someone important - and I went right along with her. I wound up finding Michael and he and I were buddy buddy for a while. Our moms actually worked together at CIGNA in Hartford, and now he's married to Regis Philbin's daughter Jennifer. Such a randomly weird little world we live in.

Either way, super super super cool night. Remember nerds, where there's a will, there is always. always. ALWAYYSSS a way!
