Volunteer Appreciation Night 2008

A big thank you to those who braved the winter weather to participate in STC Chicago's recent volunteer appreciation event. An excellent time was had by all.

The evening's entertainment included a tribute to Abbott and Costello by Bill Leavitt and Dan Brantley. Someone grabbed a camera and caught a few snippets of their routine. The video is posted here in response to a member's request. (A complete transcript of the skit can be found online. The original author of this routine is unknown.)

As the video begins, Costello has just called Abbott, who is a clerk at the Super Duper Computer Store.

ABBOTT: Super Duper Computer Store. Can I help you?
COSTELLO: Thanks. I'm setting up an office in my den, and I'm thinking about buying a computer.
ABBOTT: Mac?
COSTELLO: No, the name's Lou. … (The video begins here.)
