[A Date In] April

Saturday, May 1st, 2010

When I taped my last appearance on Late Late Night With Craig Ferguson, I was walking off the set when Craig called over his producers and huddled. I was then told “He wants to do it again.” I thought that he felt our segment hadn’t gone well, and wanted to re-do it.

I was wrong. He wanted to tape another segment with me, for broadcast at a later date, probably April. And lo, it came to pass, this past  Friday night 4/30/10.  This explains the comic uncertainty about the present date, and references to “back in February.”   The segment went to some unexpected areas, as I was totally unprepared. But that has its pleasures.

By the way, the Law of Anecdotal Value was first formulated by Professor Stephen Weeks of Lewis and Clark University, whom I should have credited.
