Mwahahaha, the Pile!

you mean mark? yeah, that was a funny character. i remember the sketch where that character goes into the lobby of the cable company with a jar of coins begging them not to shut his cable off becaus he's been looking forward to a documentary about insects.

but, nope. the old man in question was played by none other than scott thompson.

it was a really weird, moody, sketch, too.

bruce played this dude who lived with the old man (his father, i presume) and he worked at a sausage factory, where he'd spend his days daydreaming about one of the women who put authentic lipstick prints on the boxes of sausages.

very strange sketch, indeed.
