Thanks for the link. I enjoyed the interview.

I miss Dave, but I have come to like Jimmy Kimmel, too. Very different style.

The style may be different but I find Kimmel's sense of the absurd to be very similar to Letterman's, what kept me tuning in all those years.

Maybe that's why I gravitated to Kimmel.

I guess it's because I'm old, but I don't feel comfortable with Jimmy Fallon, even though I think he's very talented. And Stephen Colbert...I don't know...too hyper for a whole hour. I do catch Fallon and Colbert in clips on You Tube, and they are both very talented...just not quite to my taste.

Just saw the news that Dave's mom died. Now that I think back, it was when I happened to be flipping channels and saw her appearing on one of his shows that I started liking Letterman. It made him so human. RIP.

We saw him induct Pearl Jam into the Rock Hall of Fame this past Friday in Brooklyn. He was a last minute replacement for Neil Young who was ill. I was always a fan of Dave's, but I'd forgotten just how great he is. He gave a beautiful induction speech the other night. I always hated Leno - Dave was my fave late night host.
