I've never seen Sex & the City but I remember sitting with a group of women in New York, some of them that worked in and on tv, and it seemed to be some sort of touchstone for them...I just was not sure how. I pretty much wrote that off though as a guy/gal thing and not being much of a tv person I figured I just must have missed something.

As bad as VD though, huh...as far as tv goes I'm behind the times, this is the script for Garrett Morris doing a bit as Idi "VD" Amin:

General Idi Amin: You know, it's too bad that venereal disease doesn't just strike Jews, but the unfortunate fact is, anyone can get it, even nice people like you and me.

[ SUPER: "General Idi "VD" Amin" ]

Hi. I'm General Idi "VD" Amin, and I'm here to tell you about the warning signs of syphilis:

(a) The temporary appearance and subsequent disappearance of open chancre sores on your faloombwehbweh.

(b) Blindness and/or insanity.

(c) The temporary appearance and subsequent disappearance of two low-flying cargo planes and two Boeing 707 jets full of Israeli commandos on your entebbe...

And...

(d) Shrinkage of your faloombwehbweh down to the size of a flashlight. If you have any of these warning signs, don't neglect them. I know I ignored mine for too long, but fortunately, in my case, the disease has eaten away only the weak parts of my brain, leaving the strong parts free to declare war on Kenya. Here is an X-ray of a normal brain. [ holds up X-ray of a brain ] ..and here is an X-ray of my brain. [ holds up a slice of swiss cheese ] I was lucky. You may not be so lucky. So take it from me, Idid "VD" Amin, and get yourself checked out today. I wish someone had warned me.
