Co., Everett, Wash Lines: 18 This last Saturday (September 16) was the first time I had every heard (or heard of) the Prairie Home Companion, and Lake (?) Wobegon. I heard the skit "The Spillers" which was hilarious! I was having lunch at a friend's house, and we heard this skit during lunch: we were laughing hysterically! The skit was about chronically messy people who constantly spill things while eating. It developed into a parody of alcoholism (not to deny the seriousness of that desease) where Spillers deny their problem, and then go to a self help group specifically for Spillers. If anybody has a script (or has a better memory for dialogue than I do) I think people would enjoy reading it on the net, either in this newsgroup and/or the jokes newsgroup. Debbie Smit
