    Hello All..

    Apparently Elon Musk is set to host Saturday Night Live
    tomorrow. It could be interesting.

    Hello All..

    Apparently Elon Musk is set to host Saturday Night Live
    tomorrow. It could be interesting.

    I didn't watch as I work weekends and that's a bit too late for me, but apparently it received pretty high ratings (as far as number of people
    watched)

    Hello Richard Miles!

    I wrote my take on the viewing experience in another echo.
    I'll duplicate it here:

    Well.. I thought is *was* kinda interesting. Not much acting
    skill, but he played along just like any other amateur could
    manage. They fit in some references to Dogecoin, The hyperloop
    stuff, and electric cars. It was all very "safe".

    There was a moment during the monologue where you could tell
    that Musk improvised a bit based on the reaction of one
    particular joke. He did a pretty good job picking up on that
    signal and extended the joke a bit. I thought that was good
    quick thinking.

    I didn't think I would bother watching the whole show, but I
    did. :(

    But.. I learned that Dogecoin took a major dump the following
    day. Maybe it's a good time to buy-in on it now? LOL

    Musical guest, Miley Sirus wasn't too bad, but she seemed to
    have a bit of a southern drawl/accent in her singing voice - I
    couldn't make out most of the words.

    I recorded it and just watched it last night. I agree with your assessment 100%. Plus, I
    didn't think the show was funny. Colin and Michael need to step up their game a bit
    IMHO.
