I really like most of Short's characterizations, though I MUST SAY that a little of Ed Grimly went a long way. I once had a really great recording of an HBO special that highlighted just about every bit he ever did. One of the best was his immitation of Montgomery Clift in a skit where he was supposed to have had his own 50's TV show. Hilarious stuff. Also got a really big kick out of Jackie Rogers Jr. the clueless albino lounge singer who craved powdered donuts. Like him or not, you can't say he isn't original.
