Neil Mossey: Last Late Show with David Letterman? I remember my first Late Night Dave...

Neil Mossey: Last Late Show with David Letterman? I remember my first Late Night Dave...

Letterman: "Thank You & Good Night!"

Yes, I liked Leno too but Dave was my favourite. Both the good & bad, I think I see a bit of myself in him. My humour is also much kinder these days but I ''mostly' enjoyed his edge back in the day and also that he didn't mind pissing people off to make me laugh. I liked that Dave asked guests the hard questions and respected the fact that he took a stand for what he believed in. Canada's own Paul Shaffer was the perfect side kick whose laugh and mumblings of agreement made even the "not so funny jokes" laughable! Being a night hawk for many years, he was my TV pal that I will miss while everyone else is in the land of dreams.
