...Winfrey, in New York for the opening of her Broadway musical The Color Purple, seemed apprehensive through most of the Letterman stint. He'd ask a reverent question, she'd laser him a suspicious look, waiting for the zinger. Oprah needn't have worried. Like Nelson, the bully on The Simpsons who melted when Marge showed him a little affection, Dave has been known to puddle in the presence of the more august butts of his jokes. Recall that Hillary Clinton, the victim of several years of merciless nightly barbs about her and her husband, got the caress of sycophancy...
...other she might fancy. At the end of her stint, he took her by the hand - I'm saying the Dark Lord of Cool held Oprah's hand, anyone's hand, for two solid minutes - and escorted her down the block to the Broadway Theatre, for The Color Purple's opening night, as gawkers behind police barriers cheered the lovely couple. Thus concluded the most highly hyped detente since Sadat and Begin made nice at Camp David in '78. Next week on The Late Show: Cher and Richard Simmons get married, and Dave gives away both brides...
...Color Purple does bring significant numbers of blacks to Broadway, that'd be great. I had a similar hope for the Desi Indian audience when the A.R.

She also, you recall, played the earth-mothery Sofia in Steven Spielberg's 1985 movie version of The Color Purple. And there's a character in the book, film and show called Harpo, which as all know is Oprah spelled backward and the name of her production company...
...from the Bolshevik Army. They think their clothing is pretty “cool,” but what they think is even cooler is their love of marijuana. And listening to King Crimson while smoking it. Who are King Crimson, anyway? And how did they steal our school color? BOWL: Moderate—they don’t wash often, but they walk about in a cloud of patchouli, so it all balances out.Joining the legions of this exalted flock can be fun, challenging, and most of all exciting. In order to do so without looking like a freak...
