FSW: Someone New Enters the Battle!
Wow. Someone (not the two people I was actually targeting, but someone) felt called out this week and decided to send in a sketch. It’s her first shot at sketch comedy, but I thought it was pretty decent. She’s homepageless at the moment, so I’m going to paste it below. Everyone, please give a warm…

Friday Night Sketch War: Round Seven
After last week’s two-man wrecking crew, this week we’re back to three combatants. Still, there were some lingering personal, health, and weather issues keeping the warriors from fighting at peak form.

Friday Sketch War: Round Four
The armies assembled on their respective sides of the battlefield the evening before committing their forces to the attack. Unbeknownst to everyone, Michael stealthily climbed atop a tor a thousand yards distant from the battlefield. Selecting an arrow from his quiver, he pulled his bow taut and let it loose… Hearing the arrow whistling through…
