Jeff Richmond says a stranger slashed Fey’s face when she was 5 years old.

The future TV star was playing in the front yard of her Upper Darby, Penn., home when a stranger approached the young Fey and violently cut her cheek.

Says Richmond: “That scar was fascinating to me. This is somebody who, no matter what it was, has gone through something. And I think it really informs the way she thinks about her life.” [AP]

Yeah, I can totally understand that.  It’s like when I was five and I pissed my pants on a field trip to the zoo, and to this day I still cry like a baby whenever I see zebra print.  That was also the year I stopped breastfeeding. I don’t really know where I was going with this, but if I had to choose someone on 30 Rock to get their face slashed, it’d definitely be Judah Friedlander.  He could wear a hat that says “OUCH MY FACE!”
