Wow.  I *still* quote from that skit, and I can't remember the last 
time I've seen it.  Christopher Guest is, IMO, a genius and I adored 
him when he did the news, in _Spinal Tap_, and in _The Princess 
Bride_.

What other skits do people laugh out loud just thinking about?  I'd 
have to go with "Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood" (where he tells the 
"kids" how to use the word 'bitch'), and definitely Buckwheat's 
Greatest Hits, particularly "Wookin' Pa Nub" (or however it was 
written).  I'm sure there are others, but I just can't remember.
