TMI !

 Dear David Letterman, Why, oh why, at this point in your life did you have to spill your guts---and to Oprah at that.  She is the pope of the world, but did you really need to jump the shark to seek her forgiveness.  You didn't have to become an antichrist, but your antiestablishment, renegade attitude was the foundation of your appeal.  Did your psychiatrist advise you to do  a mental cleanse, and for that matter why do we need to know that you are in therapy?   And isn't that supposed to be enough to enable you  to avoid a public humiliation?   You didn't exactly jump on her couch, but it's even ickier to lie on it and await her absolution.  Maybe you thought you were too old to be cool, and that's all you had.   Who's next---Kid Rock, emnem?   I'm grateful Gary Cooper and John Wayne are safely entombed with their character intact.  Mental stability, self assurance----the Last Frontier.
