My favorite Lily Tomlin character is Edith Anne. Even when I was little she'd make me laugh out loud.

I loved her *housewife* character, (which always began "I am not a professional actress, I am a real person like yourself") and found this on YouTube... her mouth and her words don't quite seem synchronized, but it's still hilarious! It's the *housewife* talking about vibrators:

She's so great! For you, BD!

That sounds *exactly* like Stephen Wright, although I assume Lily said it before anyone knew who Stephen Wright even was.
