JulieSome of you must have read "Catcher in the Rye," even though it was written in the middle of the last century. In the book, Holden, who has been kicked out of 3-4 prep schools, is remembering a debate class, where the teacher encouraged students to yell out "DIGRESSION" when the speaker strayed from the topic. He hated it, becaue he sort of liked it when people digressed.
I think it's a lot of bull, as Holden did. The topic will either be covered, or (probably_) already has been covered, when someone pipes up with a "digression" My own interest in SNL died with Guilda Radner, John Belushi, Andy Kaufmann and Steve Martin--gee, all but one of THEM are dead, too! But if we're finished with black pro players of the days before Jackie Robinson,--what's a guy have to do, start a thread called SNL?
There've been a lot of ill feelings for little reason on this Forum lately, it seems to me.
