  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Does anyone remember Phil Hartman's briefly recurring character called "Egg Man"? To me this was undoubtedly one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It was a bizarre skit where Phil Hartman played a character literally the size and shape of an egg. Close-ups would show his face with glasses speaking from the side of the egg. No arms or legs, just an intelligent face speaking from the side of the egg. (I can't find any clips or images.)

He was befriending a single mother. Very caring and compassionate. The woman's delinquent son (Dana Carvey) comes home and finds the egg and asks who he is. "Let's just say...I'm a friend. Tommy, I understand what you are going through. Why your relationship with your mother is strained. Do you understand?"

Dana Carvey, a long-haired teenager picks up the egg and tosses it in his hand, saying, "I get it. I get it." Phil Hartman says, "Okay, easy now," right before he throws him into the wall and the egg splatters open. Then he hisses at his mom and does the "rocker" horns with his hand and threatens her not to tell anyone what happened.

Weird stuff. But I have never laughed so hard in my life.

14 years later, I joined this site just to say that I loved that skit! The mom was Kathleen Turner. Dana's teenage character wanted money to go to the Motley Crue concert. Mom needed advice, and the Egg Man pondering said, "Hmm...Motley Crue do worship the forces of evil..."
