Take a moment
Posted by: McQ on Friday, May 18, 2007

 Take the time, spend the 12 minutes and just listen. It is well worth your time. Craig Ferguson has an ephiphany and, as the YouTube title says "speaks from the heart". It is all unscripted. Yeah, he's still funny, but the message and how it is presented is just flat excellent. You can always tell someone speaking from experience.


If you're like me, and I'd bet most are, you know someone like Ferguson was 15 years ago. Get them to watch this if you can. I'm not trying to save the world, but I can tell you that what he says will be important to someone out there.

I remember seeing this that night.

He’s a good guy, I could tell it was important to him that he tell his story.

I’m a recovering myself, and hearing him talk about this was pretty amazing.

I have his show on whenever I can. He’s a pretty amazing guy.

For some reason I am reminded of Richard Pryor. Perhaps because you know that beneath all the jokes and smiles, you know there is another reality not nearly as pleasant that somehow inspires the jokes and laughter. It gives another layer of meaning to "I laughed till I cried".

OutStanding! I’ve been ignoring CBS for all these years, who would have imagined they’d have someone like Ferguson on the air?

Ditto to Scott’s and timactual’s comments.
