Ringo looks fantastic.
Paul is showing his age. Larry looks like a sith lord. Larry to Paul: "Where where you when you found out John passed." Paul: "I was at home at Sussex. That's where I was." Larry to Ringo: "George, where were you when John passed." Paul to Larry: "Um, he's Ringo." a psychotic is someone who just figured out what's going on | |

With celebrity interviews (well, hell, most interviews) I think Larry should just start with "Who are you and what do you do?" and build from there "Half of what I say is meaningless; but I say it so that the other half may reach you." - Kahlil Gibran | |

I'm watching it now!
Segment 1: The wives; Yoko was as annoying and transparent as always, while Olivia appeared to be very gracious. Originally, I didn't know the extent to which George was involved in the making of Love, but it was his brainchild along with the creator/founder of Cirque DS Guy Lilaberte. There was a moment when asked about the wives' misgivings of having their husbands being associated with the show, and its was subtley mentioned how Yoko was the toughest sell to get on board with the project, she put on her usual smiling, passive chihuahua act with her stock response ' well, you know I have to protect John'... Segment 2: The Beatle boys: simply two delightful old men who are taking the impact that they've had on the history of modern music in great stride with great humour. Segment 3: The remaining band members with Guy Lilaberte. Segment 4: Everyone together, band members, wives, and CDS creator. Thankfully Yoko kept her trap shut for the majory of the question session. But to her credit, when the widows were asked if their husbands ever missed playing with the others, she circumvented the question entirely and gave an evasive response of how great it was that they were humourous guys to be around compared to the (serious natured) composers she had worked with (I suppose this is better than saying John9 didn't miss working with the others . Segment 5: the closing showing the group walking out live to be received by the audience for the evening showing of LOVE, live in Las Vegas to thunderous applause and standing ovation. Moving. | |

I know it's just a mistake, but he cracks me up with that business about how he doesn't like to research his guests. The man's never been on the interwebs! | |

Paul: Remember, this is the same guy that used to write that loony column for USA Today. This writer (written some time in the past) encapsuled it well. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Chester Crowns Larry King Occasionally when I'm in the mood to have my news pre-chewed so that it reads like a Barney pop-up book, I'll pick up a USA Today newspaper. Larry King writes an interesting column in USA By the word "interesting," of course, I mean "discursive, digressive, and tortuous." It is the most made fun of work of contemporary journalism in the world. People that cannot even read chuckle when they see his column. I figure, being a dog with his own web site, that I should be well qualified to lampoon the weekly literary buffoonery of America's most respected broadcast journalist. Larry's style is one of rambling aimlessly across the page, each sentence beginning a different train of thought. The finished column is where all the random thoughts reside, a veritable collision of words and semiconnected phrases. Readers of USA Today (the same folks that keep "Hooked on Phonics" alive and well) stop off every Monday to marvel at the words of twisted steel and mangled, splintered wood regurgitated by Larry's brain. If I had Larry King's job, I would carry a tape recorder with me everywhere, archiving every scattered thought that sneaks between my ears. Just imagine what that tape would sound like . . . (RECORD) "When I make a sandwich in the nude, I'm always much more careful with the mayonnaise knife." (PAUSE) Hmmm . . . Maybe I will say, "When Boris Yeltsin makes a sandwich" . . . yes, that'll sound deep and political." (RECORD) "Yes, ummm . . . a large fries, a chocolate shake with a few slivers of those fish nuggets in it and a lukewarm Dr. Pepper." (PAUSE) I've got to have gas so I'll look more concerned on TV... (RECORD) "I worry about the women who work at Sonic. I think their job subconsciously teaches them to carelessly approach the parked cars of total strangers. It is just so wrong." (PAUSE) (Rolls down car window)"Thank you. It looks delicious. Does this have mayonnaise? Good. Here's the money. For God sakes, be careful." Anyway, I am sure the real life Larry King is tons more fascinating. I hope I never really find out for sure. I will just pick up the latest USA Today and read his mentally captivating prose. Sure, I could go on all day making up stuff about the guy. But why do that? It is much more fun to take excerpts from Larry's columns and make absurd assumptions about his lifestyle. For example, here is one excerpt from his Aug. 11, 1997 column: "You will never see a better Sylvester Stallone than in the forthcoming Cop Land, a riveting film from start to finish. Stallone gained 35 pounds for this movie and you will love his character from the get-go." Now here is a snippet from his Aug. 18, 1997 column:"(Marlon) Brando is happy considering all the ups and downs in his life. He's overweight, yes, but looking great." So, from this we make the absurd assumption that Larry likes chubby male celebs. However, Larry's sagacious wisdom far outweighs his desire to be dominated by an overweight actor. For example, his Aug. 18, column also says, ". . . being willing to fall on your face is what separates the great from the ordinary." Thus we conclude that as journalists go, Larry King is the greatest of them all. http://www.dallashomes.co...enDocument =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

There was a late night talk show on in Chicago about 10 years, and for the first 30 minutes, the host would allow a "shoot-out" where he'd take quick unscreened calls, and I'd call up and do Larry King. Half of my best material was just reading straight from that insane column.
