Yes, and Thomas Jefferson bought enough land to double the size of the United States and paid off the loan within his term, I believe. Someone purchased Alaska from Russia too, wow was that a good buy! Gold, Oil, Pollock (fish for fish sticks), and what beautiful views!

Eddie Murphyquantity does not equal quality
we had a few others i didn’t mention . . . but i can only think of Norm Macdonald right now . . . .
Still - i think that Harold Ramus, Martin Short, Dave Thomas, Rick Moranis, John Candy, Catherine O’Hara, Andrea Martin, Joe Flaherty, and Eugene Levy can each easily kick the asses of all about maybe Bill Murray and Chevy Chase . . . and Eddie Murphey maybe too.
Throw onto that David Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson and you have a wack of great comediens. Oh yeah, and Colin Mochrie is the funniest guy on Who’s line is it Anyway. -
Ok, Only Mike Meyers can compete with my heavy weights…
Chevey(or is it Chevy?) Chase - Original Cast! 3 great movies and 30 bad ones!
Bill Murray - Caddyshack, Ghostbusters, and much much more…
Adam Sandler - Need I say more?
Chris Farley - Standing up for the fat guys!
David Spade - “Now the pupil has become the teacher!”
Chris Rock - Can’t beat his stand up (Well, maybe Lewis Black can, another American)
Eddie Murphy - Great Actor, Funny Guy, hell he even had a hit song!Martin Short - He’s Canadian?
Dave Thomas - The Wendy’s guy?
Colin Mochrie - Ok he kicks the crap out of all of them. I’ll give you that. Whose Line is it Anyway by the way is my favorite TV show :) But hell, we got Ryan Stiles! -
colin mochrie is pretty funny, but he’s nowhere as funny as Chevy Chase, Bill Murray, Chris Farley, or Ben Stiller(isn’t he american?)two of the funniest movies i’ve ever seen are bottle rocket and the royal tennenbaums, both w/ luke and owen wilson, and monty python and the quest for the holy grail is really funny too (i think he’s british though)
-
Yanny, I know you live in Jersey which is why I listed it.
THough you are the only state with a majority of you land paved.
Your water quality is terrible.

Chevy Chase - National Lampoon - much of his material was written by either Harold Ramus or Lorne Michaels
Adam Sandler - ok, now i AM pulling out Norm Macdonald, ‘cuz i think he’s funnier than Adam Sandler and plays opposite to him.
Chris Farley - he’d be just another fat corpse if it wasn’t for John Candy
David Spade - ok, he’s funny
Chris Rock - not funny. relies on populistic humor. Just for that i’m mentioning Howie Mandel as you probably like him too (canadian, sadly)
Eddie Murphey - yes, a genius, ok.
Martin Short - you’re damn tootin’ he’s Canadian (starred with Chevy Chase AND Steve Martin in The Three Amigos, by the way)
Dave Thomas - he and Rick Moranis were Bob and Doug Mackenzie on The Great White North. He was the pharmacist in Grace Under Fire
i do like rick stiles tho’
and i noticed you didn’t comment on any of the Kids in the Hall . . . too funny and hip for SNL anyway . . . .
Oh yeah - forgot about Jim Carey (sometimes funny), Chong, Phil Hartman - brilliant SNL actor - also starred with David Foley in Newsradio, David Steinberg (brilliant brilliant).
Not a bad list from a little country near North Dakota . . . . -
If you are going for comedians, then the British still are in the lead, with the unbeatable trump of all the Monty Pythons.
Well, there is one US comedian (dead though, from the 40s somewhere) who is extremely funny, but i forgot his name :) -
THough you are the only state with a majority of you land paved.
False! Thats a popular myth. Your thinking of North-East NJ.
NJ is about 1/4 to 1/3 wildlife preserve.
Your water quality is terrible.
Only around Jersey City and Newark. Out here in the 'burbs, the water is fine.
-
have you been down to the avalon/stone harbor area of NJ? i went there last summer and it was a pretty nice beach. (water was a bit cold) i think it’s down at he very southern tip but i’m not sure.
-
Both nice places. We in New Jersey have the best beaches north of Maryland!
-
i’d say best beaches on east coast as far south as VA beach, cuz maryland/delaware beaches are awful (only beacuse they aren’t in VA) :P
