Betty White on SNL

Betty White was the hostess to last night's edition of NBC's Saturday Night Live, the result of an unprecedented online campaign. In her monologue, she gave attribution to her appearance. She didn't stop there.

You know, I have so many people to thank for being here, but I really have to thank Facebook. [applause] When I first heard about the campaign to get me to host Saturday Night Live, I didn't know what Facebook was. And now that I do know what it is, I have to say, it sounds like a HUGE waste of time. [laughter, applause] I would never say that people on it are losers, but that's only because I'm polite. ... Needless to say, we didn't have Facebook when I was growing up. We had Phonebook, but you wouldn't waste an afternoon on it. ...

Raison D’Etre

  • “Our entire daily lives cannot be occupied with purely religious practices; all of us have to eat, and most of us have and want to do many other activities besides. So though we cannot always be religious in this sense, we can always be Catholic, that is, the round of our daily activities can be conducted in such a way as to express and be in harmony with our Faith. And [this] can involve more than avoiding sin and exercising virtue.”

    Thomas Storck,
    The Catholic Milieu
