    If you want to know where we went wrong You needn't look too far .For where we'll be and where we've been is always where we are . And everything that comes your way is something you once gave . Somebody feels the water Every time you make a wave .Like Mork from Ork use to say Tom : Na -nu Na- nu ! . Thanks for the memories Tom ! And Remember nothing is over....till we decide it is !!

    As Schiller said, Brother Theodore had so much integrity and substance (and intelligence) that these qualities disqualified him for mass consumption. If he was still alive few people would appreciate his brilliant feigned neuroticism. Most people would have a stupid WTF look on their faces, kinda like the one Tucker Carlson wears practically every moment he is on television.

    I saw him at 13th St Theatre also... he picked on my friend and I. Was hilarious and intense just as I hoped it would be.

    Can't believe this is your account. Think you're one of the most brilliant, memorable comedians I've ever seen/worked with. I have told people about you for decades. Received you were in some post grad program at Cambridge. All blessings your way. Pax et lux, Brett Butler

Sorry Tom For that I guess I became cocky because I felt proud because I felt important because I was with you ! And do you remember Tom when we thought of the brilliant idea ( or was it me ?) Getting the address of and Korean women escort service on the east side off the back pages of the Village voice newspaper the Village voice when it was as thick as the Sunday New York times when New York times was as thick as the Torah Moses used to carry when his Torah was thick ? ( Voice over Don Pardo ) The Village voice serving the Village community and Manhattan since 1959 Tom .We got there you paid two hundred. bucks for my ho and two hundred for my ho .Actually I was thinking of taking the two hundred nixing the option of getting the ho but Decided what the heck let me get my rocks on the Korean ho who took me to her single room and was nice enough to wash my schlong with the foreskin recently re attached .That was awesome I really cherish and forever treasure those weird and wonderful moments with you Tom ( even when It was Bizarre one night and ordered too many drinking Japanese restaurant by day playboy after-hours by night ? And you was completely oblivious to me ordering drinks (at $20 dollars a pop)like a freakin alcoholic madman which is what I was at that time Tom .And Do you remember too when you took me to Donald fagens( Steely Dan )Brown stone off fifth ave to do a SCHILLER VISION film project and I was supposed to hold the make up suit case that once belonged to LON CHANEY ? I thought that was so awesome Tom I will always always cherish those memories because they were special .Tom you rock !

      @@moncorp1 it's true I was batshit crazy back then matter of fact wilder and crazier than Steve Martin but not today Cause Im clean and sober and a whole lot wiser and even more prepared to re enter the comedy / acting field since because I am clean and sober now worked a/as a security guard at 30 rock at the elevator banks on the ground floor and took acting lessons at HB improv lessons at UCB. Not so batshit crazy today as back then us what many people who knew me before tell me today. I know today being wild and crazy on the stage is ok but not walking butt naked on the Streets of New York . The absolute commitment and responsibilty that is required with being offered a once in a lifetime gig to be a player in the line up on SNL Tom rightly felt I didn't have..and my rageaholic behaviour was what blew my opportunity. I take responsibility for that. I'm not that person today No longer living in a Van down by the river !
