Michael McKean. At 46, he was the oldest person ever to join the Saturday Night Live cast, and the only person to he a musical guest, host, and cast member in that order. McKean is perhaps best known for his portrayal of  'Lenny' Kosnowski in the popular 70s sitcom Laverne & Shirley. He also co-created, composed music for and starred as David St Hubbins in Rob Reiner’s classic rock comedy feature film, This is Spinal Tap.

Picture of the Day: Cat wigs. Seems like a bad idea.
