I loved the SNL skits.Gilda Radner was a true genius.

[MilspecRob]

yea, whatever

[Rte66]

I know that. I was referring to the song from the Memorial Service:

This chorus:

"... Give me a home amongst the gum trees
with lots of plum trees, a sheep or two, a kangaroo
A clothes line out the back, verandah out the front,
and a old rocking chair. ..."

I wish Terry had not taken the interview. Barbara
Walters has been exploiting dysfunction and grief
for profit her entire career.

[Sue Perkick]

He certainly has a sense of humor. LOL.

[TexasTransplant]

Thanks for th ping, (Crikey we miss Steve), my kids just love him.

TT

Thanks, mom4kittys.
I'm TiVoing it.
Apparently Terri said in an interview that they never expected an ANIMAL to hurt Steve...I can't understand that. Did they think he was immune, too quick, or what? I'm afraid he just became too cocky. Those are WILD ANIMALS.
It's a terrible shame.

[mom4kittys]

I read somewhere that after his mother died, he thought he may die the same way--in a car crash.

I agree, and haven't seen BW in years, and I wish Terri hadn't decided to use her! I can't stand the woman.

[meema]

I think he said that in one of his programs, too. One of his retrospectives that I just watched this month...

[sweetliberty]

I made it home in time!

"I wish Terry had not taken the interview. Barbara

Leave it to the old bag, Barbra Wawa, to try and bolster HER ratings at the expense of someone else. I wish Terri had been more selective and not accepted the vultures interview invitation.

First commercial break - coming up for air! Tears flowing here. Glad to see so many clips of Steve.

No words.

[Northern Yankee]

Thanks... Saw some of the beginning of the show.

[kstewskis]

keep us tuned! I won't be seeing it here for another couple of hours.

[Northern Yankee]

Would love to, but the kids are watching something else, and am heading for bed soon.

Just got back from Religious Ed meetings tonight. Am beat.

Check out the ping about Chevy Chase impersonating Mel.

[mom4kittys]

Oh my goodness, I can't breathe.

[nmh]

It's heartbreaking to see the emotional pain on Terri's face but then she gets animated and the love and "blessings" she had with Steve and the kids begin to break through. It was a roller coaster ride with Steve and would repeat it in a nano second. It was a perfect match. They lived and loved more in that short 14 years than some do in a lifetime.

So far it's excellent. Keep the kleenex close. I'm bawling just listening to Terri reminisce about their life together. She's a brave girl to do this show so soon after his death, but I'm sure she wants to tell the world how much she loved her husband and how special he was.
