You have no idea how much reading this thread warms the cold cockles of my mean little heart.

(Former roommate was obsessed with Colbert, to the point where she was going to write her PhD thesis - well she'd have to get accepted somewhere first - about his show and style, only to collapse in tears under the futility of her "years of research" falling out beneath her when he announced he was leaving the show. Lesson: Don't plan your future on something whose future depends on contractual renewals every year or two. Lesson Two: Don't overspecialize.)
