Did anyone see the Colbert Report from Tues/Weds with Andrew Young as the guest? OMG that was the most unexpectadly touching thing I've ever seen (especially given that I think his dad and at least one of his brothers died in a plane crash not terribly long after the events that were talked about, which never got discussed), all the way to the Gospel number at the end. Seriously allergy inducing, but well worth watching. If the strike did nothing else, I'm glad we got this because I don't think it would have been by SC done otherwise.
Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

I agree, Frank. It was extraordinary.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
It was really amazing. Something I did not know.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I know, that was really moving.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
My cable crapped out in the middle. I saw the gospel number at the end, but missed the interview. Could someone summarize?

Compassionately intolerant
That was beautiful.
Thanks so much for linking to something I would not have seen otherwise.

Goodness, that was really well done and quite moving.
Love Young saying, "...'cause you need your writers back..." Har!
