Palin Got Punked

So... no Husker Fridays this week. AP had a half day on Friday to have one of our seasonal parties (hosted by the lovely art department), so alas there was no time for the Husker blogging, and I didn't want to jinx them by blogging yesterday. I will say that the Huskers are now 3-0 after handily beating New Mexico State yesterday and (not so handily) defeating San Jose State the week before.

Now. If you weren't still mourning the Ohio State/USC game last night, hopefully you caught the Saturday Night Live season-opener. In the flurry of media activity that is attempting to get to the root of who, exactly, Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin is (and just why this country should or shouldn't vote her into the White House), leave it to SNL alum Tina Fey to knock an impression out of the ballpark. Did it help us learn anything new about the Alaskan governor? No. Not really. But it did make us (well, me) realize that good political impersonations are few and far between, and as much as I love 30 Rock, SNL is sad without the Fey-ster.

Case in point:
