    Note how masterfully and kindly Johnny handled this unpredictable interview, always remaining in compelte control. I think that Fred and others thought that Jonny might have an opportunity to get some laughs over the volcano, but given the guest's sincere demeanor, Johnny chose to play it straight and praise and thank him. Wow, what a pro! Incomparable!

      Sounds like a community school.. and precociousness can be confused with giftedness.

      Mensa allows youth fourteen and over to take the Mensa Admissions Test, and it accepts testing done outside of Mensa by schools or psychologists, but it does not test young children.

    Hearing him mention his dad shows me this is the real Crispin. The one who tried to kick David Letterman in the head would deny his father still actually exists on Earth. My Conclusion: Crispin wanted to do something like Andy Kaufman did on Letterman a few years earlier, his appearance was probably planned like Andy did, and Letterman loved it. So I believe their whole beef was manufactured and Dave continues to honor their pact. He kept the secret about Kaufman's appearances being staged for almost 2 decades after Andy's death.
