For some unknown reason I was still up at 10:30 on Saturday night when I happened to remember that it was time for Saturday Night Live. I have been a fan of the show since I was a kid and I try to watch it as much as I can, which turns out to be not much because I am usually fast asleep by that time! I will, however, make it a point to tune in for certain guests and this past week was Hugh Laurie from House! I love this man, he is awesome but that is not the point of this post.
I flipped the channel and there on the opening skit was a parody of embattled Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevic. It was so funny I was crying! I have tried to find it on several video hosting sites to no avail but that will not stop my search!
On one hand, I am sorry that the Governor of my state is being made fun of (no matter how much he deserves it) and on the other hand, you know you've made it when you are mocked on Saturday Night Live in the opening skit, no less! They even mocked his wife! I hate to see what the history books will say about this one, especially since it involves President Elect Obama! We will just have to sit back and watch this one play out!

I meant to watch this Saturday, but we were out late that night. I was bummed. I love this show. Yup, you're famous if you make it on Saturday night live. LOL!
Oh the media is full of funny stuff about Rod! They are having a hey-day with all of it and it just cracks me up to hear what they are coming up with. I can't believe the State of Illinois actually is a joke on National TV! I guess it just proves what we have known all along.......
