Scott just isn’t sidekick material, he deserves his own show where can just give 'em hell.

Kevin would be a better choice here.

With Feyn and Dewaholic, Kevin pulls in to the lead, by one point! Woo hoo!

Chief Crunch, I was wondering about that Paul Bellini web site. I don’t suppose you still have the address? It would be greatly appreciated if you provided it.

My favorite sketch “But men pee through their nipples!” highlights how well Scott an Kevin can be together. I think we shoulf get rid of Conan and insert 2 KITH members.

Woo hoo!! Kevin!! YAH!!!

And, Homer, one of my FAVORITE sketches!  
Try it now!!

Your mother’s…cheating on me. Your mother’s…cheating on me…Top of the charts today…Bel Biv Devoe…Bel Biv Devoe…Earthquaka…earthquaka…whole lotta shakin goin on…

(my favorite parts of the whole lotta milka sketch, besides "Can’t fix the car without a whole lotta milka.)

I love Kevin’s facial expressions, in all of the skits, but that one in particular.

I love so many of the skits…maybe I’ll start a thread with the best KITH sketches!!! Anyone with me?

Does anybody remember the skit where Kevin played the “real Buddy Holly”. If I remember correctly, Buddy Holly swore a lot, drank, abused Richie Valens and the Big Bopper, and got a monkey to fly their plane. Hilarious!

KITH played a couple of live gigs here in NYC a few months ago and it was unbelievably funny. They were all in excellent spirits and seemed to have a blast, as the audience most certainly did. Kevin corpsed his way through several scenes (corpsing meaning he bust up laughing, a la Harvey Korman on the old Carol Burnett show) - which is why I think he’d be a good cohost. He laughs at stuff. Isn’t that a co-host’s job?

So much free time have I today…

I can’t believe I’ve been misquoting Bruce all these years. I’m so humiliated. I could have sworn that quote was ham and weight, not veal and cost. The funny thing is, I use that line on a fairly regular basis.

I smoked pot everyday for 10 years, so I suspect that’s part of the memory problem. That doesn’t excuse my behaviour, I agree, but hopefully it goes some way towards explaining it. Please forgive me.

I’ve **gotta** start watching more tv…

I forgive you, Pipeliner. Duuuuuude…every day for 10 years? How do you remember your name, let alone KITH lines?
