Heeere's Johnny!

Ed McMahon

 

Johnny Carson, Ed Sullivan...who knows if they were great guys or not, but they are a symbol of that era gone by. My dad loved 'em. I saw the firsts on their shows...the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, etc. The latest greats, the great comedians old and new-old. What can you say...


Hey, dad...it's a really, really great "shoe", and "hereeee's Johnny. Good night moon. Good night, dad.

Love,
Savannah

 

Never continue in a job you don't enjoy. If you're happy in what you're doing, you'll like yourself, you'll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have imagined.
Johnny Carson (1925 - 2005)

Thank you Mr. Carson for all the laughs, for all those years.
Rest in Peace,

QUOTE OF THE DAY
"...Once we out-organize the Democratic party, we will surprise the conservative right by learning from their organizational successes and executing it more effectively. We will do that because we have truth and justice on our side. The most important thing we do is that inside-outside strategy: Pulling together members of the Green party, the Independent Progressive Politics Network, the hip-hop community, the civil rights community, our allies in congress, the anti-war community. We are bringing together all the social movements within the Democratic party under one effective tent..."

Strategy
.....
Mindful of the continuing important differences between Republican and Democratic political values, yet fully aware of how much better Democratic candidates and elected officials must be to save our people and our planet from destruction, we dedicate ourselves to beginning the long, patriotic, nonviolent, and ultimately unstoppable process of transforming the Democratic Party. Toward this end, we will educate ourselves, our neighbors, and our fellow Americans to the demonstrable validity of the progressive worldview, and mobilize our fellow Americans precinct by precinct, congressional district by congressional district, state by state, first to take back the Democratic Party and then our great country from the global corporate interests that currently dominate our lives...

"This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good.
