I’m amazed that BLM or some other race grievance pimping group hasn’t labeled it racism because the ice man isn’t black.

“One hundred thousand years ago, a caveman was out hunting in the plains, when he slipped and fell into a crevasse, where he was frozen solid. In 1988, he was discovered by scientists and was thawed out. He then attended law school and became...The Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer!”

Unknown to me prior to your posting.

Might have been fun?

that looks like some expensive fun, but fun and much more interesting than a monolith

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I’m just a caveman. I fell on some ice and later got thawed outby some of your scientists. Your world frightens and confuses me!

Sometimes the honking horns of your traffic make me want to get out of my BMW.. and runoff into the hills, or wherever..

Sometimes when I get a message on my fax machine, I wonder: “Did little demons get inside and type it?”

I don’t know! My primitive mind can’t grasp these concepts. But there is one thing I do know – when a man like my client slips and falls on a sidewalk in front of a public library, then he is entitled to no less than two million in compensatory damages, and two million in punitive damages. Thank you.

SNL had some gifted writers back then, the ones still alive are now woke and going broke.

The Caveman writer?

“Hartman was divorced twice before he married Brynn Omdahl in 1987, with whom he had two children. Their marriage was troubled by Brynn’s drug use, domestic violence, and Phil’s frequent absence from home. In 1998, while Hartman was sleeping, his wife shot and killed him, and later committed suicide.”

Look at all those SNL members from the late 80s: Dennis Miller, Victoria Jackson, Jon Lovitz and Rob Schneider are all conservatives now.

Stop and think about every classic SNL skit throughout its run. The Coneheads, “Cheeseburger Cheeseburger,” “I’m Gumby Dammit!,” “The Ladies Man,” Fernando’s Hideaway, and “More cowbell.” What do they ALL have in common?

No politics!

PS the loss of Phil Hartman was a horrible tragedy.

And even when they did politics it was in a way both sides could life.

I always think of Hartman as Reagan in the “Mastermind” sketch. It’s hilarious, to see Reagan talking in Arabic.

It’s OK!!!

My great-great...^6 was the first of the clan back in the Highlands to walk erect!

Yes, some say he was faking it to see some town life?

Still, he could do it.
