I was thinking of Buck Henry too. Not really a fan, but did you ever see the SNL sketch he did with Laraine Newman and Gilda Radner? Inappropriate, but funny.

What was the other Mel Brooks one that you liked?

KAOS is an evil organization bent on world domination, registered as a Delaware corporation for tax purposes.

I contend that the Daily Kos was originally suposed to be KOS pronounced Kay-oss, homonym for chaos but once the dems made them mainstream they pretended it was pronounced the nonsensical "coz".

There was a show on spy devices. The Soviets had a portable system that consisted of two rubber masks connected with a rubber hose.

Very compact.

It quickly fell out of favor because of the Soviets’ propensity for vodka as well as halitosis.
