Speaking of forgotten, the original Coffee Talk host, Paul Baldwin (also played by Mike Myers).

Was that the rhyming stuff? Kazurinsky was much funnier than Adam Sandler who did the same shtick as Cajun Man years later. The word “Whambamthankyoumaamputation” as a description for the medical procedure following the accidental use of crazy glue as a sexual lubricant has stuck [sic] in my head permanently.

That’s the guy! I remember that sex with a hockey player results in Bobby Orr-gasms.

> Does anyone besides me remember [Nathan Thurm](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOLBQxk72NY), the oily chain-smoking lawyer for various sleazy businesses, played by Martin Short? He must’ve had a wire in that cigarette, the ash never fell…is it me, or is it him? It’s him, right?

Of course I remember him. What makes you think I wouldn’t remember him? You’re being defensive, not me.

I’ll give some love to Wayne and Garth. They were hit or miss, but when they hit it was pretty funny. My favorite bit of theirs was when they did movie reviews. Just about everything “sucked” according to Garth, including when they got to Dana Carvey’s recently released movie.
