So long, Michele O'Callaghan

[Bob in Jersey]

Makeup artist for Letterman (both at NBC and CBS?) and several sports
shows including Real Time w/Bryant Gumbel and most recently, Football
Night in America.

I saw Bob Costas (shakily) report on her during FNIA.

Dave took the entire second segment to talk about her, and was very
touching. He did say she was part of the group at NBC.

I have a friend who is heading in to the hospital this morning for a
three-pack of ops after having a diagnosis of breast cancer earlier
this year. They caught it so early it was labeled "Stage 0" (and what
the fuck is that name? That name had to come from the same doofuses
who came up with "preboard" for airplanes), but they're going to go
in, do some cleaning out, give her about six weeks of radiation and do
a lube, oil and filter change. I've gotten a little more aware and
sensitive toward these things (this is on top of my wife's aunt who
literally went in to see the doctor for a cough and muscle ache and
came out with a Stage 4 diagnosis on her lungs). This kind of hit a
little closer than I'd have liked.

I've said before, and will say again: fuck cancer.

Dave did a real nice job with this; given the little I knew about her already, and what we learned from watching KO, Dave seemed to really honor her not just with his words but with his tone. The video tribute was nice in that it confirmed for me what I suspected (she was the woman who named her dog asshole after Dave), but it did seem a little unfinished and rushed - but then apparently most of the staff had been at the funeral earlier that day. Dave also finished off with his own "fuck you" to cancer.

Keith Olbermann also devoted the segment around :30 in last night's
Countdown (where he usually does the viral videos in the "Time Marches
On") to an obit.

I hear that. The love of my life began chemo today for Stage IIIC
uterine cancer.

Mortality sucks.
