      I agree Dave was great and I watched the show pretty religiously in the 80s and 90s when I was still a young man. Also helps that I'm from Indianapolis and now live in the house one block over for more Dave grew up, the neighborhood is still cool! Anyway while Dave was definitely excellent I think today's late night house are at least equal to him including especially Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, Seth Meyers, and Jimmy Kimmel! 😁

    Watching this put off the next big step in my life. I'm about to check out various news sites. It's time to brave watching the Mid Term election early results online. It's still too early for final counts.
    But there's one to celebrate for sure. In MA we just elected our1st female Governor & likely the 1st out Lesbian Governor in the US...as far as I know. And Boston elected their 1st Female & Asian Mayor. Outside of MA., is there hope we can have a few years of well functioning government or will liberals be blocked at every turn for the next few years ?
    Note: There was a full Lunar Eclipse today. It's also MidTerms election day 11/8/22 11:06 PM
