I used to like him too. Then, and I can’t recall when this was (it’s too early in the morning) I read where he publicly went berserk when a volcano eruption in Iceland-an event which of course the Iceland government had complete control over mind you- caused such a massive cloud of ash that thousands of flights got cancelled. One, apparently, affected his schedule.

That behavior is so in line with your depiction. How dare the natural world get in the way of the Almighty Tentpeg of Me?

I guess we all need our heroes. Perhaps what surprises me is that Hollywood would hire him to host the Globes. He’s the primary reason I didn’t watch. That, and I was exhausted from celebrating the Patriots’ loss, but that’ just me.

Good piece.
