This was a real email I received. Apparently
my web site must be easily confused with the NBC web site.
This "University" student obviously feels he can submit
scripts to me.

Hello. My name is Bryan Smygel. I am currently a California
State University
(CSU), Stanislaus student. Today in an English class we
covered another of
my papers during the workshop portion. I email you because I
was pressured
by my class professor, as well as many of the students, to
get in touch with
the Saturday Night Live production crew with my material.
Well, it's rather
a cycle: not only today's work, but each one I've turned in
so far has earned
recognition for being totally off-beat and amazingly funny.
Now, I'm curious
as to who I might make contact with about selling my work.
If you could, might
you either run my name and email address across a production
board, or advise
my as to where I might contact such a crew? I'd greatly
appreciate it. Thanks,
BRYAN SMYGEL
EDIT: Although the original was sent in 2002, early in 2005
Bryan (not his real name) sent me an email asking that I remove the
above letter. I compromised, and told him I'd change the names
of those involved. It is still funny to me, and even more so
now that he's found his name online thanks to Google. |
