End of an era: Part Two


I'd also like to take this time to recognize another legendary talk show host, whom we also lost recently:

Once again I can vividly remember watching this show with my mom, staying up late on a school night so I could watch The Plasmatics. "The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder". Wendy did the interview with her classic look; electrical tape over her nipples. I just remember looking at the TV and glancing back at my mom-she was so cool under pressure, she never let me see her disgust and horror. She sat there calmly and very coy.

I loved Tom because he never compromised in my book, he was who he was; every time-all the time. Keep doin' your thing Tom.
