How cool is it to see someone you know well, on the David Letterman show!?  Sue Johanson of 'Talking Sex With Sue' on the Oxygen Network, was on his show tonight.  She is 77 years old.  Who'd think that she'd be a specialist on an issue like sex.My best friend died in 1989.  Her and I were asked to speak at his Memorial service where he was posthumously awarded  for work he had done in social work.  She sat with me and I got to know her fairly well. 4 years later she spoke at another funeral for a very dear friend of mine, the man who was soley responsible for encouraging me to strive for fullfillment, no matter the obstacle.  Her words were well received by the 100's of peole who attended David's funeral.  I was touched, and told her so when we spoke later that day.  We, as Canadians, rarely have the opportunity to see local Hero's speak on US TV.  What a thrill it was to see such an open minded, beautiful soul Like Sue speak live in front of an international audience.  Hopefully, some of you had a chance to see her.  Although flip, as tonight's performance portrayed, her heart is larger than large, and her open minded and generous nature will be forever remembered by me...

That is awesome to hear I did not get the chance to see her, but she sounds like a really good lady. Sorry to hear about your friend I lost my two best friends in high school to a drunk driver I went down to the accident and one friend was already dead do to impact to the steering wheel, and the other took his last breath in my arms at the hospital, I was trying to keep him awake. It is messed us to feel someone take there last breath of life. All I could think of is how glad I was that it was not me. Does that make me a bad person? I don\'t think so. Anyways, that is awesome and if she is ever on again I surely will watch her. Well, hang in there bro I\'ll keep you in my prayers.
