At least Letterman...That was a cool song Veronica. At least Letterman was good for something. <BR/><BR/>I have to share a story with you. When Letterman first came on the air I was working as a night clerk at a motel desk to put myself through college. I worked from midnight to 8 am. I would study and watch the TV that was in our lobby. One of the things I watched was the Tom Snyder show out of NY. It was a serious interview show with interesting guests, kind of like the Charlie Rose show and he also usually had a new cutting edge musical act. Good substance. <BR/><BR/>But then he got replaced by the mindless Letterman. It really sucked because I was starving for decent information and programing. <BR/><BR/>The Tom Snyder show became an important connection to what was really going on in the world for me.<BR/><BR/>I remember the last show. Snyder interviewed Ted Turner. It was sad. Turner predicted that Snyder would find his place again and that never happened. Of course everyone loved Letterman. I couldn't bring myself to watch it.<BR/><BR/>Then Letterman bought a ranch in Montana outside of Chouteau where Christine had worked as a Med Tech in the lab at the little hospital. Letterman bought the town a new Fire Engine/ Truck to endear himself to the locals, but I think so they could put out a fire at his place if needed. Then he dammed up the steam, up-stream from the ranch Christine stayed on.<BR/><BR/>So I have a dim view of Letterman for two reasons. :) But I did enjoy that musical clip you post. But I still have a problem with Letterman for pushing out Snyder. It really made my nights at the motel longer.donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13943762436600028853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5202630.post-35461326263794182662007-06-27T13:33:00.000+04:002007-06-27T13:33:00.000+04:00I hope you get some sleep - perhaps they're just e...I hope you get some sleep - perhaps they're just excited about the four-day weekend coming up?Brooke - Little Miss Moihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17267299830665625580noreply@blogger.com
