FUN STUFF
I don't usually get too involved with the partisan politics of the day, but I had to smile and sometimes laugh out loud at Saturday Night Live's sketch on the presidential debate. Alec Baldwin is amazing as always parodying President Trump, and Jim Carrey takes his first run at playing Joe Biden. It is a little longer than the average "fun Stuff" I post, but it is worth the watch when you have 15 minutes to spare.
