I watched an old episode of the Nanny a couple of weeks ago and Jon was on the episode I watched. He looked like such a baby face. He was so young.

That was a pretty funny episode! I've seen it a few times.

Will miss JS, as he is so smart and funny, but he also does a great job putting together stories with a fair hand, to boot.

I like his imitation of Mitch McConnell, "Ah, yup."

Re: Jon Stewart Stepping Down

He will still be around for a while. I love this man...so intelligent, so clever, so well read. He didn't cut any slack for anyone when he found an Achilles Heel. He just finished directing Rosewater, a type of documentary about an Iranian/Canadian who was taken into custody for free speech. I wonder if there are more directorial aspirations in his future. I will miss him terribly, and John Oliver, who filled in while Stewart was on hiatus doing Rosewater, now has his own HBO show, so he won't be available. I have no idea how they will ever replace Jon. I am already in withdrawal, and it hasn't happened yet.

I'm wearing black today even though I look awful in that color. Both sons have emailed me to see how I am holding up. LOL.

Always enjoy him his alma mater is my boys high school - Lawrence High School in Nj. I loved his stand up comedy shows when he used to be in AC. We'd always go!
