Presenting a trio of weekend sketches. First is the Lafayette River, a body of water running through the center of Norfolk. You can go brown-water rafting here, as well as use your jet-ski to create surf which will delight the neighbors. Or go fishing. Fishing on the Lafayette River is a particular challenge, since the fish love to float motionless on the surface, requiring you to cast very accurately. But they sure make mighty good eatin', and they come with their own sauce! Next is Brandi, who is a dawg. Brandi is kind of high-strung and tends to pee when greeting you, like Dr. Research. Finally, we have people waiting in line at Starbucks. Some subject are just so rich and varied that you never run out of gas.
