The first year they brought the cancer kids out there, doctors from Sloan Kettering I believe were practically fighting with each other to go out there with them. The following year they were fighting about who had to go out there because the drooler treated everyone so abusively.

Don imus, I could never understand a word he said. How he's managed to stay on the air as long as he did, was nothing short of a miracle & also a reminder that there is no god.

The guy was funny 40 yrs. ago, & has been going on that reput'n ever since.

No loss.

There's been a rumour floating around that Howard Stern will announce his retirement (or something else) on David Letterman's new show, as he's in the upcoming guest lineup.

Howard is getting a bit long in the tooth for the porn star antics his show delivers.

There hasn't been any porn talk from my recollection, this past what 5 years maybe, he's been pretty tame and trying to get away from what made him great. The show truly ended when new management came in and Artie Lange was booted from the show.
