I used to write sporadically over at a website called Pointless Waste of Time, run by Dave Wong and John Cheese. Both are really funny 'net comedians and good friends (or at least as close as you can get for someone you only know through the Internet).
Dave Wong came up with the idea of doing a feature called NewsSkim, where we'd rip apart the news in the vein of SNL's Weekend Update or The Onion. So from 2003-2004, Dave Wong and I riffed on current events (the archive of which can be found below, though it's pretty dated now).
