Hard News
T: The news is heavy and so much happening that is good, but is not on the news!
• The Free Speech people are doing much to mitigate the horror stories; what is happening has to
come out on the main media, too – can only be handled by arresting them:
• Rachel Maddow and others on MSNBC can only say so much
• Host who replaced MHS for the day of Mellissa Harris Perry was good:
• a lady on Democracy Now said that up to 15,000 people had contracted ebola – now saying at
least 6,000 dead and getting higher faster; now up to 22,000 who have contractied it – could be

many more because there are many who won't contact doctors: don't trust the US and there is no
infrastructure in terms of health – no place to go
• We are at the place of having our galactics friends intervene
We need 30,000 doctors and nurses NOW if we are to contain the epidemic – 1 in 5 people are
getting it in western Africa
• The US military are not doing things fast enough and they are not even in Africa yet because of certain
people dragging things out
• Cuba has sent about 600 doctors and staff, and they have a pattern of bringing in 4,000
• Countries with the capacity to put out large tents / clinics with cots and have medical assistants
everywhere you go
• there has to be a breakthrough – it's changing from epidemic to indemic which means it cannot be
stopped if we don't do anything at this point and we are not talking about galactic help yet
• If they do nothing, it becomes clear that these ones had no intention of helping, of letting as many
people of colour die as possible. And let's find a way in the US to blame it on Obama
Our Times with Craig Brown: Guests were Elizabeth Warren, Ellen Brown, Richard Wolffe
Subject: the public bank of New Mexico
• giving the finger to Koch Bros and Jamie Dimon: North Dakota already has its own public bank
• Wealthy visionaries are stepping up: work made manifest in this moment
as this is St Germain, Lord Kuthumi: both body hopped into St Francis of Assissi
Ellen Brown and E. Warren talked of the Web of Debt, the name of Brown's website
• On the website is info on Karen Hudis of the world bank – compromised by Leo Wanta for $1
Billion; others did the same
• we have no idea of the number of hit men who walk the streets – if you say no, you're
gone
• saying no like Jesse Ventura did can get you in trouble, yet, at the same time, he killed
Fred Bell and ultimately, he did not say “no”
• cannot serve two masters is the message
www.bankingonnewmexico.com
the site about the public bank being created
• this ties in with the wisdom-based economy discussed by RanaMu yesterday – as opposed to
shares, day trading, markets and money, etc etc
• This is the place where the naqual has stepped in
• Rana Mu has talked of all the masters being here – now is the time for us to walk off the cliff and just do
it, do not even think about it – you'll be covered!
• This is what Baba Gi said, and Rana Mu: Rama is a living witness ot the idea but now and then
he gets stuck too in his own ideas: have to take a risk!
R. Wolffe talked of taking risks in the midst of the chaos and how the public bank of NM can work;
• one of the entrerpreneurs works with the CEO of Medical Marijuana, inc – Brian Perlwind; this
kind of marijuana is being supplied to dispensaries across the country
• One of the people working with Perlwind is making a form of hem called hempcrete –
like concrete; growing hemp, using its fibres and converting it into hempcrete to replace
concrete – can be used for blocks, pyramids, a hobbit house; bubbles [Ed Hicks'
technology]. - Instead of sand, use the hemp fibres. Stronger than the concrete; does not
retain moisture; has no radiation.
• another of the entrepreneurs wants to create a free restaurant like in 1967 in Haight Ashbury –
if you have nothing, and do something in the restaurant, you get a free meal.
• another lady talks of offering acupuncture and massage therapy for free to those suffering from
PTSD, coming back from all the wars [Caitlin]
• these people who are doing OK are paying it forward to create the public bank so the people can get out
of the hands of Saran & Jamie Diamon

SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
3 / 42
• Now is the time - Send peace no matter where you are – this will change the physical matter, time
and space in the moment
• She got this so strongly that a mountain lion showed up in her living room: she thought it was real
when it sat down next to her and said “We gotta talk”! She swallowed hard and said “Oh shit!”
• The bears, the dolphins, the wolves, the whales – all the animals are saying send peace even
though the idea of extinction is being bandied about by many across the planet
• Yes, we are in a critical moment where We The People have been called to active duty
E. Warren told everyone to get out and vote; it you value your freedom GET OUT AND VOTE and no f**ing
excuses; We are all enemies of the state until we aren't, and 1984 is already here – at the same
time, wein the 5D and as we think it, so it is –
• the horse whisperer got this in her face and it was so serious she talked of it on the radio; she
talked to follks who called up because they had issues with their animals who were saying to their
their fellow compatriots who care for them that “It is time; it is really time!”
• even though half the animals and species are gone, and more are leaving every day because we
have not done our homework; there are beings in the oceans and elsewhere we have never talked
to and their voices are going silent.
• yet all the ones that are “gone” are stored within Metartron's cube and Neptha Al Ra – these
species can come back whether they swim, sliither, walk, crawl, live in a petri dish or whatever, as
their blueprint is in that cube.
R: got a hit earlier this week: he is stillintegrating what Metatron did with him – an awesome experience!
• It is right within our grasp; at the same time, the folks who want to rule the planet are working
feverishly to create the fear and fascination of an the extinction idea –
• Mother, Ashtar, Sananda and other Ascended Masters saying IT HAS BEEN CANCELLED!
• At the same time, Will Smith did an interesting version since we are talking of viruses, plastic
coffins lining the streets, so many pits of bodies burning - R has seen it on other planets and star
systems and does not to go there!
• what he is saying is that all the beings are saying now is the time, and how we do this with the
greatest of ease even when we know that 1 in 5 have been exposed to ebola: are we not creator
gods?
• One in 5 can be exposed, yet are we not creator gods? What is known as a virus or a bacteria
are lifeforms that exist in some dimensional realm – the particles in those life forms also have to
answer to god/goddess/all that is; the light of god that never fails, like the rest of us. We are
enough; there is that place where he just knows that “here we are”!
T: their friend Chantarah made them aware of the company that produces water that can heal everything
- and the natural devices that can completely clear your car.
• The water device will make water for 39 years & will clear the water of everything
• She said there is a man who has a desalination process of ocean water that is very economical
as opposed to the billions & billions that Califronia is considering spending on 2 sites [CA
expected to run out of water within a year]
• Will probably have to be sent to the wealthy visionaries for it to be considered. Cost is $300,000 to
set the technology in place.
• Wants to focus on available technologies which are galactic in nature
• Reads a letter from a person in Hawaii to a Mr Watts about the zero waste technology
• Writer is the president of the Kunia village agribusiness complex & single family homes
owned by the hawaii Agricultural Research Centre [HARC}
• the invillage electical demand is growing; talks about waste water technologies
• the village is intended to be completely self-sustaining
• interested in waste water / waste technology
• The technology that the man uses to desalinate water also cleans the water – uses no chemicals,
gets rid of radiation poisoning, arsenic, lead, coal ash etc – not expensive when compared

to the costs of the old-fashioned technolgies
• Hawaii is surrounded by water that is full of radiation in the ocean, made worse by fukishima
• The scientiest dumped radioactive canisters full of radioactive material into the oceans;,
the salt water degraded the canisters so the water has been radioactive since early 80s
• anyone who has been swimming in that water and is still living is here because of the
spiritual invocations for help
• reads a letter from the Radiant Rose Academy – there was a meeting in Salt Lake City and info from
that meeting was shared on Thursday, Oct 2nd call
• AA Michael referred to us all as “boots on the ground”; we have the spiritual hierarchies in the
dimensions above us; he knows the problems, but needs the invitation of the people on the planet
to provide assistance: Do not delay in asking for help; We need you to stay aware of events
on the ground and to call on the higher realms for help
• don't focus on those events for ever; learn about what is happening, turn off the TV& make a
decree, a spiritual call – as the spiritual first responders United in a collective energy field to give
the Company of Heaven all the calls needed; each week we focus on a different set of calls
• access the news letter from Radiant Rose Academy weekly and join in
• Free Speech, via the computer, is the best source of new information – as opposed to the TV
Reading: Alex Witt – Rep Eleanor Holmes Norton from DC – they talk of an organization that is 150
years old that han never been reviewed! Treated like a secret society
R: in answer to Rama's question some time ago about what it's like to work for the Secret Service, KOS
told him
• KOS works for the ACIO and #15, the wingmaker – which is the real deal! On the ground, he's a
secret service agent
• He said if you really wanted to know, you'd have to get a new name, a new identity etc etc
and if I told you, I'd have to kill you!
• R likes living too much to want to know that! His mission is to do what Ashtar tells him to do!
T: They have been told that, since 1999, KOS has had a star ship given to him by Ashtar
• when Bush Jr got into office thanks to the treasonous Supreme court – the kings and queens who
answer to no one!
R: that long drawn out story of Al Gore – since you don't have a signature on your document, sit down and
shut up – this was about the Florida vote which was rigged. The only people who spoke were the
Black Caucus members
T: background to the Florida event:
• all the sentators were in the room; and only the black caucas people spoke with Maxine Watters
speaking 3 times in January 14/15, 2001 at the end of Ramadan;
• Nov 2000, was the election; Jan 21st was inauguration day so they had to be clear whether Bush
could be president before the swearing in
• they quote the prophecy of Nostradamus: in the 12th month of the turn of the century, the village
idiot, the abomination of desolation would enter the white house and usurp the seat of
power for the world
• this was fulfilled and we have to do something about it
R: It was voter fraud at the highest level – Supreme Court is complcit with the fraud & high economic
treason
T: Maxine Watters, twice, got only 1-2 minutes into her presentation – even after Al Gore would ask her if
she had a signature by a senator; she would say no & start to speak, then he would bang the gavel
• ; the 3rd time she got up, she asked for one good Senator to come and sign her papers – no one
spoke – that was in Dec, 2000 – Bernie was not a Senator at the time; had he been, her papers
would have been signed
• 2000, March 9th – KOS and his starship sequestered ALL OF CONGRESS [not just 15 as was in
the Faction 2 report – Four Winds 10] that was put out on the background of the NESARA bill
• the “undisclosed location” referred to was the King of Swords' starship via access through the

White House; the members of Congress and the Senate and were issued in politiely by the White
Knights who had phasers: “You will all vote for NESARA to become law, won't you?”
• This action, plus Oct 10, 2000, when Clinton in his last days as president signed the NESARA bill
into law. DONE! He also did the signing on the craft which means there is no way anyone can
listen in or kill anyone;
• In the meantime, the fake N bill has been pushed as the real one.
• NOW WE ARE HERE, and the truth is coming out more and more.

DHS: Review panel to assess Secret Service
Audio:
Weekends with Alex Witt
10/04/14 12:41PM
Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton talks with Alex Witt about Homeland Security Secretary Jeh
Johnson’s recent announcement that members of the Secret Service Independent Review
Board will be named in the coming days.
http://www.msnbc.com/alex-witt/watch/dhs--review-panel-to-assess-secret-service-337866819656
T: now that the dirt of the SS is out, they are probably worried about their backsides!
• Refers to a former program of Thom Hartman whose guest was the first African American to serve
as an SS agent: he was hired by JFK. This man found out about an assassination attempt on JFK
prior to his hiring, and about a second attempt about 18 days before the one that finally occurred.
• Someone went to Ruth Montgomery who said JFK should not go to Dallas: ultimately, it was a
clone that went. JFK Sr is alive and well, going on 98 years old; has been on the ships & all over
the Universe of Nebadon.
• A huge mothership decloaked over Hong Kong
• last night it got ugly: hired goons with face masks bloodied up some of the light workers
• the police had used their batons and the numbers reduced; after this event, the
number of attendees multiplied again: people are saying truth to power.
• the protestors said there were hired thugs, and the police confirmed it later
• protestors want to see the leader of Hong Kong step down; they are planning to occupy
some gov't offices
• Thinks there are about 300,000 military on the Island of Hong Kong
• also President XI knows the full story of what is going on.
• About the activity in Ferguson, Mo.
Alex Witt 10/04/14
Ferguson Grand Jury tweet sparks a probe
Ben Jealous, former president and CEO of the NAACP, joins Alex Witt to talk about recent
allegations of misconduct involving the Grand Jury in the Michael Brown shooting
investigation and the growing concern about the Secret Service’s protection of President
Obama.
• Hillary has tried to kill Obama hundreds of times: as he is operating at the galactic level, he's safe.
• We have the wingmakers who can read people's thoughts before they say a thing!
• This mandate that T & R have is to speak about what they know without a gag order
• those who have a connection to KOS in the media, in Hollywood and elsewhere
are under gag orders issued at gun point!
• WE ARE IN THE 5TH DIMENSION ALREADY; the new earth is here!
what we see is already past tense; our consciousness and the collective work
we do as in Cheryl's calls raises us even more & helps us catch up to the fact
of being in the 5th dimension
• The Secret Service were the ones who murdered the clone of JFK Sr; Lamar Waldren along with
Thom Hartmann traced the murderous CIA and they do hate black energy

• the book is called The Long Shadow of the JFK Assassination
[SEE BELOW]
• they talk about why JFK Srdo not go into the piece about JFK, his brother Robert, &
Marilyn Monroe preparing
to speak about the galactics
• Castro and President Kruschev knew about this
• There is talk now that Obama will meet with Rauel Castro – a big deal!
Legacy of Secrecy: The Long Shadow of the JFK Assassination by
Lamar Waldron and Thom Hartmann (Nov 10, 2009)
[There are 3 volumes]
• The CIA – and Castro was an asset of the CIA from the start – walked into Cuba and shot a nuke
in 1961 to LA in California; Ashtar said that since that map came out by Laurie Toyier it has
been deleted from the program
• Also counter actions beting taken against space technology/weather modifications
IT IS OVER and our work is just beginning
• it is a big deal that John Fugelsien and Al Sharpton & Al Franken are saying that we have visitors;
• LM Nada got on air and said that we have visitors
• The so-called comet – Dr Richard Hoagland said a year ago it is NOT A COMET IT'S A
SPACE SHIP called “Sighting Spring”. Scientiests have found that the “comet” has changed
its trajectory to go around Mars, not into it with a guidance system and has freaked “the
powers that were”
• Members of the Secret Service: KOS, Tom the Ringtailed Cat, Larry, Curly and Mo are Secret
Service BUT THEY ARE GALACTICS.
• That day, Al Franken and Carl Freish when they were 13 years old [June, 1968] at the
Ambassador Hotel in LA were working on the campaign of Bobby Kennedy Sr; they knew
he was going to make an announcement about the presence of the galactics as soon as he
got the nomination – especially about the Ashtar Command.
• It's one thing to have Ashtar's son, Rama, talk about this – IT IS ANOTHER TO HAVE
THESE two from the political sphere and the media sphere have basically violated their gag
order and said it on the open air! This is HUGE!
• These are the ones protecting Obama and family, otherwise they would be gone.
Ben Jealous: does not think Secret Service members are threatening him likd they did the other
presidents – talks of the cessna landing on the White House lawn; does not think they are
racially biased [this is true of those connected to the 38th level above the president]
T: true of the galactic members, not true of the 3D ones – talks of the SS men in South America
who were out drinking etc etc - they do not like the black man in the white house!
• This is why we have galactics at the 38th level of the Alien Contact Intelligence Agency and
the Wingmakers to help
• Ferguson: 3,000 people in the streets yesterday – cops not being nice.
Ben Jealous: talks of the concerns black Americans have about what is going on, based on history
–
like the people supposedly protecting Malcolm X
• Talks of MLK – Ralph Abernathy shot him dead; was an agent of the CIA
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
7 / 42
• Rama dialled Ralph Abernathy's number on the encrypted technology and said your day is
coming; it's about that great mother goddess, Sehkmet, and about what you did when you
violated your oath of office when you took out the Man; you will have to face who is in charge
of this story – Mother Sehkmet. Also told him to make peace with his god!
• Rama said there was dead silence at the end of the phone, then Ralph hung up.
• MLK was an asset for the CIA and had to play the game or he would not have been able to
do what he did; his wife was a lady of the night and was killed by the CIA when she went to
Mexico to get help; she was not that ill, but was dead 4 days later!
Ben: there is a history here and a reason people have these concerns
that Jey Johnson says there will be a review and that it will result in palpable changes?
• The secret service killed a clone of JFK sr, Bobby Kennedy Sr – the ultimate overlay is that they
will kill any president you don't like because of their own agenda
• JFK as he was going to expose the CIA for being dirt balls and their alphabet bodies, and
expose the Federal Reserve for usurping the people and their money;
• Bobby K Sr because he was going to announce presence of Ashtar Command;
• They want to kill Obama because they are racist, as the black man from the time of JFK
saw this aspect: he will make a full disclosure - 20 million Sovereign Militia Forces – 16 mil
from the galaxy, 4 millions on the planet.
• All of these energies and anchoring them on the planet: we have to match each move they make
and we have missed a lot of moves!
• To this day, and the story of the dinars and the dongs and Christine Lagarde [a 50' tall
male dragon] in charge of these finances and acting like she is in charge – CANCELLED!
• One thing to hear it from Natasha and Ibrahim Jaffar of Iran [scientist]
• another thing entirely to hear it on line: see Friday Night notes, Oct 3, 2014] that they
will not be able to do anything else but bite the bullet of the crash
• the entire world market place went to ZERO on Feb 6, 2014 – every market on earth!!!
• the real truth is THE LIGHT LEADS – as we get this more and more, and express through
our consciousness and engage with that [5th dimension on the planet] way of seeing
believing and knowing this is so
T: bull pucky about the head of the CIA and a full exposure: it is really about the Faction 3 White
Knights working with the galactics at the 38th level abouve the president, and him being fully
informed.
• In 2008, there were moles inside the Secret Service:one of the most important things to
look after / keep secret was the map of his itinerary; yet several maps went to Mitt
Romney's campaign insiders!!! They were leaked!

The Electric Pulse of Women Transforming Our World
JENSINE LARSEN
“When I tap really deeply into my own voice, this is what I have to say: It is absolutely urgent. The
task for us now at the time when there’s no nation on Earth where women have equal voice, that
we apply all of our human power to develop the architecture, the communications infrastructure,
that can channel the wisdom of those women that are living in the midst of some of our Earth’s
greatest challenges so that their voices can reach the public, so that we can hear their needs in
their own words.”
About this talk
Growing up in rural Wisconsin, Jensine Larsen scoured news publications for the voices of women
teachers. When she couldn’t find them, at 19 she took off for the Amazon, where she gathered
stories and shared them back home through outlets such as NPR and Air America. In this inspiring
talk, Larsen shares her excitement about the global rise of women’s leadership and it’s
relationship to the communications revolution that she catalyzes and supports through World
Pulse, an online media platform she designed to turn up the volume on women’s stories across
the globe.
About Jensine Larsen
Jensine Larsen is a social media entrepreneur and international journalist and founder of World
Pulse, a global media enterprise devoted to bringing women a global voice. She pioneered World
Pulse magazine, grassroots women’s citizen journalism training, and an interactive website that
enables women from over 185 nations to speak for themselves and connect to solve global
problems – including those using internet cafes and cell phones from rural villages and conflict
zones.
Sisters in Spirit: Women Transforming the World
History is a tale told by the winners. How then can we reclaim the voices of those who have been
historically written out - silenced through the ages? Perhaps as women write “herstory” into
history, we’ll see clearly the eternal power, brilliance and unique value of women’s contributions.
Join media innovator Jensine Larsen and feminist historian Sally Roesch Wagner as they share
the emerging landscape of an inclusive, sustainable and just society at whose heart is the
leadership of women.

Lawrence O’Donnell sits down with Charles Blow, author of “Fire Shut Up in My Bones” to
discuss the flexible nature of sexuality and how “all identity terms are umbrella terms.”
He reads parts of the novel to reveal the quality of the language used, and the story of rural poverty
such as that his aunt lived in.

Astrology: Richard
• Last week, talked about this week because this week is when the energies are crystalizing
• the Fire Trine between Uranus in Aries, Jupiter in Leo, and mars in Sag is very close – within 2* of
each other – the fire/desire/spiritual element that is working now
• Cardinal T-square is fully formed: sun and Venus opposite Uranus and both square to Pluto
• the Fire Trine and Cardinal T-square are connected through Uranus
• Mercury trine Neptune, turned retrograde today – this is a 21 day long event
• North Node is between sun in Venus on one side, and Mercury on the other
Mon: moon in aquarius, goes into Pisces& squares mars, trines Saturn
Tues: moon in Leo, moon opposite Venus, sun opposite Uranus Tues pm
Wed: full moon; extra active as it goes through Aries will square Pluto
• Being called a Blood Moon: means it's Perigee = close to earth
• The earth is between earth & sun, so we get more reflected energy off the moon when it is
closer
• As Moon goes through Aries, trines Mars & Jupiter
•Tues, Wed loaded up with Aries energy
Thurs: moon goes into Taurus
Fri: moon still in taurus, Mercury backs into Libra, sun sextiles Jupiter – there is a bit of a kite going
on here, it will tighten up [get more exact] when it gets in Libra and get stronger
Sat: Venus will be opposite Uranus in the morning
• this completes the crystallization of the energy formation – it's in effect now and will last for a while
• Watch out for unexpected things to happen! Has to do with Uranian energy
R: we have some visitors who need to come and talk!!!

Abraham Bolden, the First Black Secret Service Agent Assigned to the White House, Tells
the Story of Racism in the U.S. Secret Service

Kennedy Assassination
Some agents did not want to protect President John F. Kennedy because they considered
him a 'nigger lover,' Bolden says
by Frederick H. Lowe
Staff Writer
The NorthStar News & Analysis
Abraham Bolden Sr., the first African-American Secret Service agent assigned to the White House detail,
still finds humor in his life, despite having faced formidable challenges that would have defeated a lesser
man.
Bolden served three years in prison after being convicted of giving government documents to a known
criminal in exchange for $50,000.
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Chicago retaliated against Bolden after he complained to no avail to his Secret
Service bosses and later to the public that Secret Service agents failed to protect President John F.
Kennedy on the day he was assassinated because some of them considered the President a 'nigger lover'
who was changing the country.
Some of Bolden's white Secret Service colleagues fabricated the charge against him as part of an
elaborate cover up that followed JFK's assassination in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963. He details the evidence in
his book, "The Echo from Dealey Plaza: The True Story of The first African American on the White House
Secret Service Detail and His Quest for Justice after the Assassination of JFK." The book was published in
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
16 / 42
2008.
Now The Funny Part
Bolden was serving part of his prison sentence at Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery, Ala., when he
wrote John N. Mitchell, who was President Nixon's Attorney General from 1969 to 1972, seeking help.
Mitchell did not answer Bolden, but circumstances changed dramatically for both Bolden and Mitchell.
Bolden was released from prison in September 1969. Six years later, Mitchell took up residence in the big
house. In 1975, Mitchell was sentenced to 2 ½ years to 8 years in prison, having been convicted for
conspiracy, obstruction of justice and perjury. Mitchell was sentenced to serve his sentence at Maxwell Air
Force Base.
Mitchell Is Assigned To The Same Prison Bed Bolden Had Earlier
"He was assigned to bed 813, the same bed I had when I was there," Bolden said laughing. Bolden also
sought help from Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. to get his federal conviction expunged.
"Jackson was my congressman, but I never heard back from him," Bolden said. Jackson is no longer a
congressman. He was sentenced to 30 months in prison after pleading guilty to misusing campaign funds.
And guess where he's serving his time? It's Maxwell Air Force Base, although his bed number is not
known.
The visitors in Bolden's living room burst into laughter.
An Old Man Who Won't Be Silenced
Bolden is 79 and he walks with the assistance of metal walker. He has suffered three heart attacks and he
endures severe back pain. He lives in a brick bungalow on a quiet street in Chicago, where all of his
neighbors know who he is.
Bolden has a kind brown face, a strong voice, an uncanny memory for dates and names and a sense of
fairness towards his fellow Secret Service agents despite their liberal use of the word "nigger."
During an interview with The NorthStar News & Analysis, Bolden sat in a straight-back metal chair next to a
black couch arranged with plaques he has received over the years for his speaking engagements
promoting his book. Propped in the middle of the couch is a large, framed color photo of President John F.
Kennedy.
Bolden is now seeking to persuade President Barack Obama to expunge his felony conviction based on the
clear documentation detailed in his book that he was framed by Secret Service agents in the Chicago
Bureau for a crime he did not commit. The link to the petition is
www.petitionspot.com/petitions/abrahamwbolden.
It is not clear what President Obama will do or if he will do anything at all.
Meeting President Kennedy
President Kennedy met Bolden at the door of the men's room at McCormick Place, Chicago's convention
center that borders Lake Michigan.
Bolden was guarding the men's restroom on April 28, 1961, so it could only be used by top political officials.
It was a job normally assigned to a uniformed Chicago policeman, but his fellow Secret Service agents
2014, Oct 4

wanted to demean Bolden by assigning him the task.
President
John F.
Kennedy
President John F. Kennedy's photo is prominent among the awards
Bolden has received over the years promoting his book about racism in
the U.S. Secret Service and how it played into the assassination of JFK.
President Kennedy hired Bolden to work on the Secret Service's White
House detail. Photo credit: Rosemary Lambin
"It was very difficult because I was African American. I wasn't wearing a uniform and many people did not
believe I was a Secret Service agent," he said.
Bolden was standing at his assigned post when he heard a rumble of footsteps coming down the stairs.
Leading the group was President Kennedy, followed by Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley, Illinois Gov. Otto
Kerner and Ill. Sen. Paul Douglas and Chicago Congressman William L. Dawson.
"I stepped aside. I didn't say hello, Mr. President," Bolden recalled. But President Kennedy followed Bolden
and asked him if he was a Chicago police officer or a Secret Service agent.
Bolden told the president he was a Secret Service agent. "Has there been a Secret Service agent assigned
on the White House detail?" President Kennedy asked. "Not to my knowledge," Bolden answered. The
President asked Bolden if he would like to be the first. The president shook Bolden's hand and cameramen
snapped photographs, but those photos have since disappeared. "The Secret Service did not want me to
be seen with the President," he said.
President Kennedy arranged for Bolden to be assigned to the White House Secret Service detail. The
President told Pierre Salinger, White House press secretary, that Bolden was the Jackie Robinson of the
U.S. Secret Service.
Being The First Is Sometimes The Worst Position To Be In
"He [President Kennedy] knew what I would face," Bolden said.
Robinson, the first African American to play Major League Baseball in the modern era, showed that there
are both advantages and disadvantages to being first.
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
18 / 42
You're remembered in history books, but at the time, breaking new ground, isn't easy. Philadelphia Phillies
Manager Ben Chapman repeatedly called Robinson a "nigger," when he was at bat or when he took the
field. And Phillies General Manger Herb Penncock, warned the Brooklyn Dodgers, Robinson's team, not to
bring that 'nigger' to town.
The movies depict Secret Service agents as guys with short haircuts, wearing white shirts, skinny ties, sun
glasses and neatly pressed suits, but many of them could have easily changed their white shirts for the Klu
Klux Klan's white sheets. When they weren't acting like Klansmen in suits, they were getting drunk and
picking up women, something we hear about even today.
Some of Bolden's fellow white agents in the Chicago office hung a noose above his desk. Maurice
Martineau, special agent in charge of the Chicago office, joked about it. Martineau and Bolden did not get
along.
'You're a Nigger So Act Like One!'
When the Kennedy family vacationed at Hyannis Port, Mass., the agents all lived together in a house on
the compound. As the agents were driving to the compound, Secret Service Agent Bob Foster saw a black
woman in an Air Force uniform. "Thar goes a nigger," he shouted before realizing that Bolden was in the
car. Foster covered his mouth. "I was there, but they did not see me," he said of the other agents.
Agent Harvey Henderson, however, did not shy away from calling Bolden vicious names. Henderson said, "
'I am going to tell you something, and I don't want you to ever forget it," Henderson said. "You were born a
nigger, and when you die, you'll still be a nigger. You will always be nothing but a nigger. So act like one! '"
The Echo from Dealey Plaza
The cover of Abraham Bolden Sr.'s book.
It was at the Kennedy compound that Bolden learned how much some of
the agents hated the President, calling him a "nigger lover" who was
pushing integration on the country. "They wanted Lyndon Johnson, who
was Kennedy's vice president in the White House, because he was a
Southerner.
It was a turbulent period in the nation's history. Blacks demonstrated to
integrate stores, lunch counters and better-paying jobs. In return, they were
being met by police with water hoses, billy clubs, snarling dogs and angry
white crowds.
Some Secret Service Agents Hated Kennedy
Bolden was sitting on the porch of the Hyannis Port house where the
agents were living. The others were sitting at a table inside the house
drinking beer and smoking, but Bolden could hear their conversations.
Some of them said they would never take a bullet for President Kennedy because they hated him, which
shocked Bolden. "It was our Congressional responsibility to protect the President," he said.
Should some of us worry about President Barack Obama's safety? After all, Robert Copeland, a Wolfeboro,
N.H., police commissioner, recently called the President a 'nigger.' Bolden nodded his head that we should
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
19 / 42
be concerned for Obama's safety.
Bolden remained on the White House detail only 30 days. "I did not want to go to Dallas because I feared
something would happen," said Bolden, explaining that a month before President Kennedy's assassination
on Nov. 22, 1963, United Nations Ambassador Adlai Stevenson II had been physically attacked in Dallas by
right-wing extremists. Stevenson was serving as the governor of Illinois at the time.
Secret Service ID Lost At A Strip Club
The night before President Kennedy was assassination, Bolden said an unnamed Secret Service agent lost
his ID at either a Dallas or Fort Worth, Texas, strip club.
The lost ID played a big role in the President's murder, Bolden said. A Dallas sheriff's deputy stopped an
unnamed man on the grassy knoll in Dallas, but the man showed the deputy a Secret Service badge. In
January 1964, for an unexplained reason, the Secret Service replaced all of the badges with a slight
change in wording.
"The Secret Service knew a badge was missing, but they [Secret Service] covered it up," he said.
Bolden doesn't think Lee Harvey Oswald fired the fatal shot killing JFK. He believes there were two other
shooters, one inside Dal-Tex Building, a seven-story building, across the street from the Texas School Book
Depository, where Oswald was located. The third shooter was on the grassy knoll. Oswald, however, did
not fire the fatal shot, and he did not know about the existence of the other two shooters, Bolden said.
Abraham Zapruder, who filmed President Kennedy's assassination, rented offices in the Dal-Tex Building.
Several witnesses said they heard several shots being fired from the Dal-Tex Building at President
Kennedy's open limousine.
Credible Evidence President Kennedy Was To Be Killed In Chicago Or Miami
Before President Kennedy's assassination, the Secret Service had credible evidence that a gunman would
attempt to kill the President either in Chicago or Miami, Bolden said. The Chicago office of the Secret
Service never acted on the threats, Bolden said.
After President Kennedy's assassination, the information was rewritten to show that there was a threat to
President Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded President Kennedy.
Bolden, who was 29 and idealistic, went public with his concern that the Secret Service did not adequately
protect President Kennedy. He thought the truth would win out, but bureaucracy didn't seek the truth; it
sought to protect itself. The Secret Service concocted the charges that Bolden was planning to sell
government documents for $50,000 to Joseph Spagnoli, a known criminal who lived in Villa Park, Ill., a
Chicago suburb.
A Witness Admits He Lied To Convict Bolden
Bolden's first trial, which began May 28, 1964, ended in a mistrial although U.S. District Court Judge J.
Sam Perry, a native of Carbon Hill, Ala., and a graduate of the University of Chicago Law School, stood up
in front of the jury before the trial had ended and told jurors that Bolden was guilty. He became so angry
and frustrated with Judge Perry's unfairness that he seriously considered killing the judge and then himself,
Bolden told The NorthStar News & Analysis.
Judge Perry also lectured Bolden's attorney, George Howard, berating him in front of the jury like he was a
first-year law student. Howard and Bolden recently met for first time since 1966, although they live only a
few miles from each other.

During the second trial, which ended Aug. 11, 1964, Spagnoli admitted that Deputy U.S. Attorney Richard T.
Sikes told him to lie in order to convict Bolden. Sikes pled the Fifth Amendment.
Sikes' boss was Chicago U.S. Attorney Edward V. Hanrahan, who would later be elected mostly by black
voters Cook County, Ill.,State's Attorney.
As State's Attorney, Hanrahan would become infamous by ordering police assigned to his office to raid on
Dec. 4, 1969, the West Side apartment of Fred Hampton, Chicago's Black Panther Party leader, and Mark
Clark. Police fired nearly 90 shots, killing Hampton and Clark while they were sleeping. Relatives of both
men sued Hanrahan and the police in trial presided over Judge Perry, who dismissed all of the charges.
The families appealed, and a higher court reversed Perry's decision.
Spagnoli's admission did not make a difference to the all-white jury. Judge Perry locked Howard and
Bolden out of the Dirksen Federal Building, where the trial was being held, while the jury was deliberating.
Federal prosecutors and the judge, however, remained inside.
The jury found Bolden guilty and Judge Perry sentenced him to six years in prison. He served part of his
sentence at Fort Leavenworth, one of the country's toughest prisons.
An Offer Of A Job And A Typewriter To Tell His Own Story
Not everyone wore blinders when it came to Chicago's style of justice. Bolden worked at Ingersoll
Products, and the company's president wrote a letter to Judge Perry saying the firm wanted to hire Bolden
as a permanent supervisor.
William Wagnet mailed a check for more than $2,300 and a typewriter to
Bolden, telling him to tell his side of the story.
The treatment he suffered put an end to his youthful idealism. Bolden said if
he had to do it all over, he would do it differently. " I would just go to the
press with my concerns," he said. Bolden was 30 when he went on trial.
Judge Perry died in 1984. Bolden said that while he would not desecrate his
grave, he would like to find it to make sure Perry is dead.
Though Bolden wrote his autobiography, it was his late wife, Barbara, who
pushed him to tell his story. She asked their son to help his father buy a
computer because he did not like writing on a typewriter.
When Bolden complained that he could not remember everything, she
produced every letter he had written to her and every letter the Secret
Service had written to him.
Bolden and his wife, Barbara
The book is dedicated to her, their children, grandchildren, his parents and friends who believed his story.

I Ching For The Week of September 29, 2014
Wu Wang Disentangling
Above: Ch'ien
Below: Chen
Heaven
Thunder
The Wisdom:
Disturbance coming from outside your influence
Be diligent and disentangle yourself and actions
Demonic forces feed on ignorance
Become informed and act swiftly
Look into all your associations and see where you have given up your power to others or have
compromised when the benefit would have been to stand firm. This is a partial cause of the disturbance in
focus, form and intention. Metaphorically and, in some cases, in reality, you have had difficulty finding a
comfortable place or way to sit, stand or sleep. Fidgeting in place for so long has become tiresome and
shameful. Your thought processes and actions have been clouded by your desire for a successful outcome.
This is futurizing which has led to over-thinking your situation and not living in the present.
By focusing solely on correctness, fame, position, recognition—outcomes of any sort—you are missing the
point. It is not that you cannot have all these things—you can, and with attention to movement with and for
the greater good, you will. What is problematic is your ego’s projection into the future that will prevent you
from tapping into your intuitive clarity and your well-deserved success.
Your call now is to be spontaneous and move with absolute confidence in who you are and what you
desire. The beneficial action now is disentangling, releasing, any ties that have bound you to your past
influences and to outmoded ways of action and thinking.
The trickster aspect of the ego, would have you look into the future and see the titillating grand and shiny
things that represent success. When you think you have figured out the smartest, the most clever and cool
ways to move toward your goal this arrogance will lead to a disastrous out come, guaranteed. The ego
will tempt you to move swiftly toward your desires, come hell or high water. It doesn’t work that way.
If you were to continue to move in this manner, you would be disregarding the influence of your spirit
helpers who are the bringers of the strength of innocence, and your creative source of the your destined
and created journey. Be cautious not to lose the part of you that is the child of innocence. At this time it will
be your saving grace.
Consider the ignored part of your being,
Your inner and sweet child of innocence.
Slow down;
Do not act out of fear
You will scare yourself
Fear will have you looking to the future and trying to plan for every contingency. This would only sap your
energy and ultimately prevent you from receiving the love, abundance, and happiness that awaits you.
It is wise to plan and to be thoughtful, but limit your thoughts and plans to the present and in doing so you
are making the journey truthful, peaceful, efficient, and more joyful. Your balance along the path is to
include being of service to others and to Gaia, our Mother Earth of oceans, deserts, mountains, plains and
all her sentient beings. This will allow you to handle whatever surprising events may come your way with a
focused clarity that will enable you to act spontaneously and creatively so you will be able to embrace the

moment; the magic is in the moment.
In literal translations of the I Ching, this hexagram is defined as “being free of forethought and reflection.”
This is good to remember, as it will keep you in the present. Look neither to the past, nor to the future: Be
Here Now.
When you are moving toward a goal that will serve the greater good, whether in business, family,
community, tribe, relationships, your health, your journey toward enlightenment, it is important to be clear,
dignified and simple while being fully present and in the moment. Live in the moment, this is the only way to
become unbound. Walk with like-minded people, fellow pilgrims. Move away from those who suck your
energy by raising doubts, fears, or envy.
The ego, the critic, the inner judge, will try to sneak in while you are traveling on your path and tell you that
you need to be reasonable, clever, suspicious, and, above all, to look good in others’ eyes. It would have
you create imaginary problems that would cause you to incorrectly evaluate the situation before you. The
crux of the idea behind this hexagram is to remain aware and fully present.
Consciously let go of trying to get approval from others. This is only the ego trying to interfere and keep you
from fully appreciating the beauty and the myriad gifts of life. As you slow down, and allow the inner
innocent child to appreciate the beauty all around you, there will emerge a strength that you have not
known before. It will be a strength wrought not from pain or angst, but from peace, laughter, and joy.
Take note, by combining your journey with rest and fun in proper measure, you will keep a clear mind that
will be ready to handle the good, the bad, and the ugly with equanimity and poise.
The journey is not as treacherous as it might sometimes seem. Listen to your intuition, which will be
revealed magically when you respect the importance of rest, meditation and play, in this way you show the
ultimate respect and honor to yourself. Be love….be your authentic self.

Compassionate Patience~October 2014 Astrology Report by Sarah Varcas
http://www.mysticmamma.com/october-2014-astrology-report-by-sarah-varcas-compassionate-patience/
Here is a deep and insightful Astrological Report for October
2014 from the wonderful Sarah Varcas from her AstroAwakenings.uk:
“We begin October with Uranus and Chiron highlighting the
need to find new ways to both accommodate and heal
woundedness at the personal and collective levels. They
have been working together on this issue since June,
simultaneously exposing where we are most wounded and
offering tools to further the process of healing and the
embodiment of wholeness.
“The first week of October plays out against the backdrop
of a square between Mars and Chiron…We hear a lot about
healing these days, but less about accommodating
woundedness: allowing it to be there without needing to
remove it.
“This willingness to recognize the presence of suffering
and refrain from interfering with it is a powerful theme at the
beginning of this month.
ART: EPHRAIM MOSES LILIEN
“…the heavens point to the need for compassionate patience which allows ourselves and other people to
be imperfect, in pain, struggling without needing to intervene to make things ‘right’. They remind us that
‘right’ is whatever is in the moment, not a particular version of life that we prefer.
“If we find ourselves suffering in the first week of October, be it physically, emotionally, mentally or
spiritually, the biggest mistake we could make is to assume this means something is going wrong or we
haven’t ‘come as far’ as we thought.
“Now is the time to abandon all such value judgements and simply accommodate the pain for a while.
Invite it in. Listen to it as we would to a small child with something very important to say. Make space for
the pain and then just be.
“This is the best advice for the first week of October, for if we can do that we will contribute to a growing
tide of patient compassion and compassionate patience which recognizes that life is intensely complex, as
are we, and healing takes time.
“We are multi-layered beings and all manner of elements throughout time and space must align in a
healing way for every layer to shift and change. The application of astrology teaches this every day: that we
are in a process with its own shape and cycle.
“Our responsibility is to honor the cycles, not try to circumvent them; to work consciously with them in
such a way that we maximize the potential of each moment….Time to understand we are not here to call
the shots but to live them. There’s a difference…
“Between the 4th and 8th October we encounter a Grand Trine in Fire setting the heavens ablaze and
our spirits with it. We can claim its fire as our own as we embark upon a month with much to teach about
2014, Oct 4

24 / 42
timing: ours, the divine’s and everything in between!
“With fire comes inspiration and optimism. Stocking up on these qualities will do us no harm and a quick
inventory of the inner strengths we have to sustain us as we journey onward is a good use of this energy.
“However, it also brings impatience, over-confidence and a rash disregard for the natural laws which say
if you jump off a cliff without wings you will fall and into a fire without protection you will burn. So balance in
all things is required here, to reap the gifts of the fire without the consequences of disrespecting it!
“On 8th October a total lunar eclipse occurs in Aries at 10:56 a.m. GMT. With the Moon conjunct Uranus,
it speaks of liberation and awakening, shocks and surprises. Feelings may run high, but a positive alliance
between Mars and Jupiter offer us hope and buoyancy to ride the waves, reminding us that alchemy
requires high temperatures to occur!
“If you feel like you’re in the furnace at this time, know that the heavens are focusing their power on you
not to melt you down never to be reformed, but to burn away the dross in order for the precious gifts of life
to be revealed.
“However, despite the presence of Uranus, master of surprise and rapid change, the fruits of this eclipse
will take time to ripen, with the processes triggered now culminating in March 2015, which is another good
reason to embrace the message of patience…”
“All things come to those who wait, and whilst this eclipse may provide some unexpected input we will
not fully encounter its results for some time yet, so be sure not to judge its worth too soon. There remains
much to be revealed in due course.
“In the few days following the eclipse we have some fairly up-beat energies coming at us, with the Sun,
Mars, Jupiter and the North Node aligning to remind us that commitment and faith stand for a lot when
facing obstacles and challenges.
“They speak not of blind-faith and Pollyanna hope but of the deep faith born of one who has faced
obstacles before, who has walked the path of awakening for a while and who knows its ups and downs,
pitfalls and blessings.
“They speak of knowing that quick fixes are no fixes and that engaging deeply with the process of inner
and outer transformation teaches us much about the nature of time and space and the cycles of life to
which we are all subject.
“They remind us that our own lives are mere specks within this vast and endless universe and embracing
this bigger perspective can do wonders for our ability to bear with their more difficult aspects in order to
embody their greater blessings in due course.
“Indeed, at this time the heavens point not only to our own tiny lives but also to the vast infinity in which
we live them, reminding us that the fruits of the present moment may await us in realms and dimensions
yet to be revealed. Patience, once again, is the watch word now.
“This emphasis on patience is not, however, to imply that nothing is happening! Beneath the surface all
manner of shifts are taking place, although their fruits are yet to be revealed. Indeed, if we try to force a
premature ripening we may end up crushing them rather than harvesting them in a timely way.
“From 18th October to the end of the month we see a conjunction between Venus and the Sun, first in
Libra and then Scorpio, which invites us to enjoy the process right now. No matter what’s going on in our
life, we are encouraged here to find the pleasure and identify with harmony rather than struggle, with peace
rather than discord.
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
25 / 42
“This is easier said than done when life is throwing us curve-balls, but here we have the chance to step
aside and choose time-out rather than grappling with on-coming forces too formidable to subdue.
“It can feel almost irresponsible to sit back and take a nap when so much is pressing for our attention,
but that’s what we’re encouraged to do! Now is not the time for action but for creating space in which
effective decisions can be made in due course, once we’ve gathered ourselves fully and recharged our
batteries.
“23rd October sees a partial solar eclipse in Scorpio (9:46 pm GMT) conjunct Venus, further highlighting
the need for familiarity with the process of transformation such that we can relax and allow it to happen as
necessary. This eclipse reminds us we don’t always need to be in the driving seat and there is much to be
said for sitting back and enjoying the journey, even when things feel intense and we’re certain we SHOULD
be doing SOMETHING!
“Any solar eclipse in Scorpio will take us into deep water, but this one offers us an oxygen tank and all
the requisite diving gear to enjoy the descent rather than be terrified by it! It reminds us that it is frequently
the willingness to embrace the darkness which sheds the needed light to navigate it. Resistance is futile,
the heavens tell us now, and whilst this may sound like a message of doom in fact it is one of hope, for it
means that we can let go, lighten up and still do the deep work needed for true rebirth.
“We don’t have to be depressed as we encounter the challenges. We can stay relaxed and even find the
fun in it! And yes, that in itself is a challenge, but it’s one worth engaging with now. We may just discover a
whole new way to ride the waves of change with a smile on our face…
“Mercury stations direct on 25th October, completing its retrograde passage and beginning its return to
where it was at the start of this month. What we have learned in the interim is important information if we
are to make good on commitments formed in July, August and September.
“We have learned a lot about timing this month and we may have to rethink some of our previous plans
to incorporate what we now know. We have also learned about attitude and the need for sovereignty over
our own mind-set and approach to life. These lessons, too, will come in handy as we survey our plans for
the future.
“Whilst life is not about to become easy-peasy, when we can maintain a greater level of ease regardless
of what occurs we are in a far stronger position to forge ahead and create much needed change when the
time is right. And with a steady and positive attitude we will know when that time is and be ready to act
accordingly.
“As the month (and the eclipse season) comes to an end, we are reminded that whilst it’s easy to feel the
strain of life’s challenges, a shift of perspective can enable us to access peace in times of strife, pleasure in
times of discomfort and hope in times of despair.
“Nurturing the ability to choose our inner landscape rather than have it dictated by external events is a
powerful strength which can carry us through all manner of difficulties. In doing so it is not that we deny the
pain or simply think a positive thought to counteract a negative one.
“Instead we acknowledge that life in all its complexity can give us great pain and great pleasure in the
same moment, hope and despair as one, comfort and dis-ease as part of the same package.
“And we have a choice, always, whether we polarize into one or the other or embrace it all in its fullness
and know life inside-out, with a shout of joy, a wail of despair and everything in between.”

THE LAST WORD WITH LAWRENCE O`DONNELL
August 11, 2014
Guest: James Lipton, Robert Wuhl, James Clark; Jeannie Wolf
LAWRENCE O`DONNELL, MSNBC HOST: Rachel, I`m in Los Angeles doing the show from our studio at
Universal Studios.
And I`ve got to tell you, talking to all my friends in L.A. today, the ones who knew Robin Williams,
just a devastating day here in this town.
RACHEL MADDOW, TRMS HOST: Absolutely. I understand completely. Thanks, Lawrence.
O`DONNELL: Thank you, Rachel.
Within hours of Robin Williams` death today, President Obama said this, "Robin Williams was an
airman, a doctor, a genie, a nanny, a president, a professor, a bang-a-rang Peter Pan and
everything in between, but he was one of a kind. He arrived in our lives as an alien but he ended up
touching every element of the human spirit. He made us laugh, he made us cry, he gave his
immeasurable talent freely and generously to those who needed it most, from our troops stationed
abroad to the marginalized on our own streets. The Obama family offers our condolences to Robin`s
family, his friends, and everyone who found their voice and their verse thanks to Robin Williams."

BRIAN WILLIAMS, NBC NEWS: Tragic, devastating word that Robin Williams has been confirmed
dead.

O`DONNELL: He was voted least likely to succeed by his California
high school classmates. Twenty years later, he was nominated for an Oscar
for best actor. And 10 years after that, there is after that, after two
more best actor nominations, he won an Oscar for best actor in a supporting
role for playing a psychiatrist in "Good Will Hunting."

ROBIN WILLIAMS, ACTOR: Thought about what you said to me the other
day, about my painting, stayed up half the night thinking about it.
Something occurred to me. I fell into a deep, peaceful sleep and haven`t
thought about you since.
You know what occurred to me? You`re just a kid. You don`t have the faintest idea what you`re
talking about.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
O`DONNELL: Robin McLaurin Williams was found dead in his home in northern California. He was
63 years old.
The Marin County sheriff`s office responded to a 911 call and arrived at Williams` home just after
12:00 noon where he was pronounced dead. The sheriff`s office issued a statement saying, quote,
"The sheriff`s office coroner division suspects the death to be a suicide due to asphyxia."
Robin Williams` press representative said he has been battling severe depression of late. This is a
tragic and sudden loss.
Robin Williams` wife Susan released this statement, "This morning, I lost my husband and my best
friend while the world lost one of its most beloved artists and beautiful human beings. I am utterly
heartbroken. On behalf of Robin`s family, we are asking for privacy during our time of profound grief
as he is remembered. It is our hope the focus will not be on Robin`s death but on the countless
moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions."

Joining me now, James Lipton, host of "Inside the Actor`s Studio."
James, let`s follow that suggestion by Robin Williams` wife and focus on those countless moments
of joy and laughter he gave to millions.
Where would you place him in our film history since he worked both so much in comedy and did
some profound work in drama?
JAMES LIPTON, HOST, "INSIDE THE ACTORS STUDIO": Very near the top, of course. He was a
great comedian. And like many great comedians he was also a great actor. He did it all.

O`DONNELL: Your show is just so valuable to film culture in this country. And one of the great things
you now have in the vault is the show you did with Robin Williams. Take us back to that. What was
that like?
LIPTON: It was memorable. It was in its way unique, of course, as he was. Let me say that when he
came on the stage, I had my blue cards, a stack that high. It was our first two-hour show.
And he arrived, he went to work, and it was six minutes before I was able to ask the first question,
because he was just so busy. And I see on the screen that you have the great moment with the
Pashmina (ph).
His manager told me a few weeks after he did the show that it was the best performance he`d ever
given in his life. And that business with the Pashmina was amazing.
What happened was that I -O`DONNELL: Well, let`s -- we have the clip of it.
LIPTON: Show it.

O`DONNELL: Why don`t we show that. We`ll pick it up right after that. Let`s take a look at how this
happened.

WILLIAMS: We`ve never met before, have we?
I came to Bombay last year.
I would like to welcome you to Iran. Help me!
My name is Robert Van Shovel. I would like to open you to the first openly gay show.
Welcome to iron chef. First of all, tonight we are going to cook octopus balls.

O`DONNELL: James, it was like watching a magician step into the audience and say, we`ve never
met. And then go off with that.
LIPTON: He was magic. That was magic. Last year we won the Emmy for our 250th episode which
featured that clip, among many others. And we also invited our viewers in America and around the world to
vote for their favorite episode of our last 20 years. Needless to say, it was Robin Williams` episode.
O`DONNELL: James, you mentioned that his manager said that your show was one of his best
performances or his best performance ever. And you mentioned that he came out on the stage and
went to work. That`s not what most people do when they come out onto your stage, is it? Aren`t they
there to kind of submit to your interview?
Advertise
LIPTON: Or to yours.
O`DONNELL: Yes.

LIPTON: The guests come on they wait for us to ask a question. He didn`t wait.
And by the way, what inspired that Pashmina bit was when I said to him, listen, would you tell me
something? This was just before he started. I said, would you tell me something?
Your mind operates in a different dimension than mine, or anybody else`s. The speed at which you
think is -- what are you doing? He started to laugh, and that`s when he went down to the front and
said, I can`t tell you but I`ll show you. The young woman from whom he took it is my goddaughter,
there she sits in the front roar, and the Pashmina was our Christmas gift to her.
So, it was family, family, family.
O`DONNELL: So that was his explanation of how he does the magic he does. He didn`t have
sentences for it. All he could do was show to it you.
LIPTON: He said, I`ll show you, I`ll show you. Then he did that. While he was doing one thing, he was
inventing the next. That wasn`t the end of it, what you showed on your show here. It ended with him taking
the -- folding it with the fringes, then doing this in front of his head, bringing his face through it.
He was a car emerging from a car wash. You know what that is? It`s genius. That`s genius.
O`DONNELL: Yes.
He went to Julliard. He was training as an actor, and said at different times that the urge for him was just to
get on stage. He did not specifically set out to be a standup comedian or necessarily to be working in
comedy, but to get on the stage.
Advertise
LIPTON: He just happened to be funnier than anybody else. Couldn`t have -- "Mork and Mindy" established
him as a great comic talent. He was greatly inspired by Jonathan Winters.
O`DONNELL: Yes.
LIPTON: And he took from him the art of improvisation and carried it to heights that no one has ever
taken it since or, I`m afraid, ever will again.
O`DONNELL: And there weren`t many people who dared to be inspired by Jonathan Winters because he
was so inventive and unpredictable that it would be hard to kind of diagram what you were being inspired
by.
LIPTON: He was the only person who could do what Robin Williams took to that enormous height.
O`DONNELL: Yes, I want to talk about him as a dramatic actor. And I want to look at a clip of one of miss
movies that is not the most prominent. "One Hour Photo" where he`s playing a pretty dark character.
Let`s take a look at this.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
WILLIAMS: I`m sure my customers never think about it. But these snapshots are their little stands against
the flow of time. The shutter`s clicked, the flash goes off. And they`ve stopped time, if just for the blink of an
eye.
And if these pictures have anything important to say to future generations, it`s this -- I was here. I existed. I

was young. I was happy. And someone cared enough about me in this world to take my picture.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
O`DONNELL: James, he was playing someone working in one of those one-hour photo booths, a
thing that has become extinct in the age of digital photography.
Advertise
LIPTON: Yes.
O`DONNELL: But a complete and deep picture of depression, something we now know was painfully
relevant to his own life.
LIPTON: Yes. He had what great actors have and grade comedians have as well. He had access to himself.
He could reach deep, deep, deep – deeper than most people can into himself, find something which was
entirely unique, completely surprising, and yet in the end inevitable.
Take it out and show it to us. That`s what he was able to do. That`s the definition, for me, of great acting.
O`DONNELL: Let`s take a look, I just want to show a moment on what was Johnny Carson`s second to last
show here in Los Angeles. And he was describing Robin Williams. And this was the show, Johnny Carson`s
show as we all know, the greatest comedians in our history all appeared, American history, all appeared on
that show.
Here`s what he had to say in his final words in remembrances of people on that show about Robin Williams.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
JOHNNY CARSON, THE TONIGHT SHOW: In this business, there are comedians, there are comics, and
once in a while, rarely, somebody rises above and supersedes that and becomes a comic persona under
themselves. I`m never cease to be amazed at the versatility and the wonderful work that Robin Williams
does.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
O`DONNELL: And, James, it wasn`t easy to amaze Johnny Carson at that level.
LIPTON: No, it wasn`t. But was he -- was Robin ever anything but amazing?
Advertise
O`DONNELL: The dramatic turn that his career took was something that a lot of people didn`t see
coming since he got such a rocket of a start in comedy, especially television comedy. He ended up
returning to television and also going back to standup when he didn`t have to do it. He seemed as
though he wanted to keep moving in every direction that he could.
LIPTON: Absolutely. And he had what great comedians have. He had enormous scope and range.
You and I would have a scope maybe of six inches between my palms here as I hold my hands up.
And he had a range which was limitless. He could go anywhere. Mike Myers can do that, a few
people can do that. Billy Crystal can do that.
They are able to, no matter where we go in a conversation, no matter where the artist is going himself, he
will find references that we couldn`t possibly have anticipated or imagined. He is nothing but surprises. And
take a look at a role like "Aladdin," like the genie in "Aladdin." He created one character after another as

quickly as he could speak and it was all done in an improvisation in an empty studio with a microphone.
And then they created the genie to go along with what he had said. "Mrs. Doubtfire." "Mrs. Doubtfire" -- he
played -- there`s Mrs. Doubtfire, she`s hilarious, she`s hysterical, she`s ridiculous. And then he played the
husband trying to get back to his wife and to his children and that was a brilliant, dramatic performance,
those two performances in the same movie.
O`DONNELL: Yes, just stunning. Robert, your show is so valuable to us and you are as an interviewer. And
you`ve come up with -- James, sorry -- you`ve come up with this brilliant final question that you ask. If
heaven exists, take us through how you ask that question of Robin Williams
and how he answered.
LIPTON: I`ll do my best. It`s a little bit difficult tonight to do this.
But I asked, if heaven exists what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the pearly gates? And
Robin Williams said to me, there`s seating near the front. The concert begins at 5:00. It will be Mozart,
Elvis, and one of your choosing.
Or, to know that there`s laughter. That would be a great thing. Just to hear God say, two Jews walk into a
bar.
Look where he went with that, in 15 different directions at once. You know? I don`t know, I suppose
everybody has said it already. And I`m the last to say it. We are dealing with a real-life Pagliacci.
This is the clown who cried. This is the clown who cried at last in life and who breaks our hearts. But in the
end, in the end, as so many comedians are, Robin was Pagliacci.

O`DONNELL: James Lipton, thank you very much for joining us on this difficult night and sharing the joy
that was Robin Williams. Thank you very, very much, James.
LIPTON: Infinite joy and it`s not over. It`s not over.
O`DONNELL: That`s right.

O`DONNELL: Joining me, NBC News correspondent Hallie Jackson.
Halle, what is the latest information we have on what happened today?
Advertise
HALLIE JACKSON, NBC NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Yes, so we understand that there is an investigation
into what exactly happened. The sheriff`s office in northern California says that this is a suspected suicide
at this point. But as you can imagine, they are still trying to gather the facts and
gather the information.
We expect to know more tomorrow morning first thing. But in the meantime, you are seeing so much
reaction pouring in. Here in Los Angeles, in Hollywood, from friends of Robin`s, people who may not have
even known him but are going out to his star on the Walk of Fame, laying down flowers, laying down notes.
You`re seeing an outpouring of grief all over this country.
O`DONNELL: And twitter has filled up with comments, especially from people from the comedy world.
I want to read a sequence from Ben Stiller, actually, today. It was quite moving. He said, "A tweet
cannot begin to describe the hugeness of Robin Williams` heart and soul and talent. This is so sad."
Then a few minutes later he said, "OK, I`ll try. I met him when I was 13, I`m a huge fan, he was so
kind and I watched him be kind to every fan I saw him with."
And then, a third tweet, "With other actors he was so generous and brilliant, he made everyone feel
special and equal around him even though he was the genius."
And then a fourth, "His heart was so big and even if you didn`t know him, what he gave everyone is
that same spirit in his work so we all felt it."
And then, a fifth, "His impact on the world was so positive, he did so much good for people, he made
me and so many people laugh so hard for a very long time."

And then, the sixth that wrapped it up, "And because they don`t really tweet, this message represents all
the Stillers, Jerry, Anne, and Amy, who Robin was a great friend to," and I`m sure the Ben Stiller tweets
represent an awful lot of more people in show business who Robin Williams worked
with.
JACKSON: That`s what you`re seeing. Six tweets from Ben Stiller. Yet, Pam Dawber who co-starred
with Robin Williams in "Mork and Mindy," of course, she`s the famous Mindy, all she said was, "I am
heartbroken and devastated, completely and totally devastated. What more can be said?"
O`DONNELL: Yes, most people who are close to him can`t speak right now at this hour. That`s what
I discovered in reaching out to people today.
Advertise
But we are now joined on the phone by Robert Wuhl who costarred in "Good Morning, Vietnam" with Robin
Williams.
Robert my friend, thank you very much for joining me now. I know this is not easy.
Tell us about your memories of working on that amazing breakthrough movie with Robin Williams.
ROBERT WUHL, ACTOR (via telephone): Well, how are you, Lawrence? I`m shocked like everybody else
with the news. You mentioned "Good Morning, Vietnam." I had a co-starring part with Robin, very gracious,
I appreciate that. But it was a wonderful experience.
But what today brought back was I remember a day when we were all on the set. We had a great time, it
was all guys. It was like all guys playing soldiers. It was a lot of fun, having a great time. We knew we had
the perfect vehicle for Robin with the right director, Barry Levinson.
All of us hanging out on the set one day, and at that time the book that was making all the rounds was Bob
Woodward`s "Wired." Remember that book?
O`DONNELL: Yes, yes.
WUHL: The book about John Belushi and the death of Belushi?
O`DONNELL: Yes, "Inside Saturday Night Live."
WUHL: That was the book making the rounds. We were all trying to read it without Robin seeing it. If you
remember, Robin was at the Chateau Marmont the night Belushi overdosed. And he and Robert de Niro
had been there earlier in the night. And after that, Robin had got himself clean.
And he saw one of the guys reading the book. He says, you`re reading that book, huh? He goes, yes, the
guy was sheepish. He goes, well, those were tough times.
Advertise
And I just remembered that moment. He didn`t say -- didn`t play prima donna, like put it away, I can`t look
at it, get off the set, anything like that. He just -- I just watched his reaction there. I`ve known Robin for, you
know, a good dozen years before then. Because when we`d started out
the clubs together in New York, that was a group that included like people like Gilbert Gottfried, Larry
David, Jerry Seinfeld and George Wallace and Paul Reiser.
But we kept hearing about this comic in San Francisco. This guy would come into a room which would
have 10 people at 2:00 in the morning and blow the room away.
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
34 / 42
Sure enough, one time he comes in, sure enough he came in, nobody had ever seen anything like this. And
he blew the room away like you never saw this stuff happen.
So, I met him back then and of course we remained friends. The thing to remember, as brilliant as he was,
as genius an artist as he was, the old adage he was even a better person really applies to this guy. People
– he was a San Francisco comic.
When the outbreak of AIDS first hit San Francisco, there were a couple of colleagues who were stricken by
this and Robin I know took care of these guys under the table and did it anonymously. When Christopher
Reeve, his roommate from Julliard, had his terrible accident, Robin took care of him.
This was one of the most special, most generous -- it`s just tough. You don`t know what`s greater, the
talent, the genius, or the man himself.
You can find very few people ever to say really bad words about Robin Williams.
O`DONNELL: We`ve got shots of you up on the screen with Robin right now. "Good Morning, Vietnam,"
sitting there in the producer`s booth on the radio show you guys were doing in that movie.
I`ve talked to Barry Levinson who directed it about the creative atmosphere there. It just sounds like it was
one of those magical sets in terms of the creativity that was bubbling up. A couple of stand-ups, you and
Robin there, Barry Levinson himself starting as a performer in comedy himself.
WUHL: Yes.
O`DONNELL: Tell us about what that was like and how things were energized by that and how things
changed from day to day on the set because of it.
Advertise
WUHL: Well, again, I go back to it was -- that`s the genius of Barry Levinson, who was the perfect guy for
this project. Couldn`t have gotten any better. Robin had the perfect vehicle. The screenplay is totally
underappreciated and undervalued which is a shame, because the screenplay is terrific.
The cast Barry put together, the late great Bruno Kirby, we had a great time there. That`s one of the ones
you say you had a great time. Plus, you saw the right vehicle -- Robin had not had a super hit by this time.
He`d been in a couple of movies but he hadn`t had the breakthrough vehicle yet. He`s done "Popeye" and I
think "Garp."
But this was the one when it broke, it fed right to his genius, perfect vehicle for him. We went out to dinner
quite often. The three, the group put together, went out to eat.
Robin made everyone else inclusive. By the way, the great thing about Robin Williams, he was a great
audience. Robin`s great laugh, ha ha! When he broke into laughter he was a great audience. Not a lot of
comics are always a great audience. That`s something.
But Robin, this is a special guy, he`ll be missed. This is a special guy.
O`DONNELL: And you guys are both the same age, coming through this comedy era together and acting.
You had one of the -- I think maybe the first comedy series on HBO yourself. And HBO did concert stuff
around Williams.
There were all sorts of openings that were suddenly occurring in comedy and performing through places
like HBO that weren`t there when you guys started.
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
35 / 42
WUHL: Well, that`s also a continuum -- it`s actually HBO comedy series before mine. First, (INAUDIBLE)
was there. Larry Sanders show was there. "Dream On" was there. So there were other series.
And this goes to the people who started HBO which is Michael Fukes (ph), later Chris Albrecht, who knew
Robin from the clubs. And he trusted comics. Chris at HBO and Robin, Willie, Whoopi, of course, went to
Chris to start comic relief.
And you have, you know, the immense amount of monies that these three did, raised. It`s just another part
of Robin. And, by the way, he was kind of funny. He was kind of smart and kind of funny, which is the
understatement of all-time. And just a terrific guy, just a great guy.
By the way, you said Lipton was talking, the great thing about Robin is unlike a lot of comics, he wasn`t
afraid to make himself unlikeable in a part. If he thought the part called for it, he would make himself
unlikeable. He could do that, he wasn`t afraid of that. He wasn`t afraid of image that much about stuff like
that.
Advertise
He was a true artist. I mean, Robin Williams is very, very special.
O`DONNELL: Robert Wuhl, buddy, thank you very much for jumping on the phone with me tonight. I really,
really appreciate this. Thank you very much, Robert.
WUHL: Hope to see you soon under happier circumstances, Lawrence.
O`DONNELL: We will do that, thank you, Robert.
WUHL: Bye-bye.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE REPORTER: This all started in what was supposed to be a peaceful vigil for
Michael Brown, turned into this. We do want to stress that not everyone in that march was participating in
the efforts approaching those police. The quick trip was broken into. The glass was
busted out. A lot of people going in, grab sag plies, stealing from that quick trip night. Complete unrest
really in the streets tonight.

O`DONNELL: Breaking news from Ferguson, Missouri, just outside St. Louis tonight, where there is unrest
for a second night in the wake of a deadly police shooting of an unarmed black man.
Advertise
Police in riot gear have blocked off roads tonight in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson. There are reports that
they have used tear gas to disperse a crowd of protesters at a major intersection. Last night protesters
smashed windows of stores, of restaurants, and damaged cars.
There was also another vigil tonight for 18-year-old Michael Brown. He was unarmed when he was shot
multiple times by a police officer Saturday. Michael Brown and a friend were reportedly walking in the
canfield green apartment complex on Saturday.

Brown`s grandmother says he was on the way to see her. Dorin Johnson says he was with Michael
Brown when they encountered the police.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
DORIN JOHNSON, SAYS HE WAS WITH MICHAEL BROWN: A police officer squad car pulled up. And he
pulled up, these were his exact words, he said "get the f on the sidewalk." And we told the officer we was
not but a minute away from my destination and would shortly be off the street. We was having a
conversation. He went about his way for one or two seconds as we continued to walk. And then he
reversed his truck, his car. In a manner to where it almost hit us. And it blocked both lanes off the way he
turned his car. So he pulled up on the side of us, he tried to thrust his door open but we were so close to it
that it ricocheted off us and bounced back to him. And I guess that got him a little upset. And at that time he
reached out the window. He didn`t get out of the car. He just reached his arm out the window and grabbed
my friend around his neck. And as he was trying to choke my friend. And he was trying to get away and the
officer then reached out, grabbed his arm to pull him into the car, so now it was like the officer`s pulling hip
inside the car, he`s trying to pull away.
At no time the officer said that he was going to do anything until he pulled out his weapon. His weapon was
drawn and he said, "I`ll shoot you," or "I`m going to shoot." In the same moment the first shot went off. And
we looked at him. He was shot. And it was blood coming from him. We took
off running.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
O`DONNELL: NBC`s John Yang talked to another witness.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
JOHN YOUNG, NBC NEW CORRESPONDENT: Piaget Crenshaw said she saw it happen from her
apartment balcony and it looked to her as if the policeman reached for Brown through the car`s open
window.
PIAGET CRENSHAW, WITNESSED POLICE SHOOTING: It looked like he was trying to force him into the
police car or at least force him to stop walking.
YANG: Authorities said the struggle spilled onto the street where Brown was shot multiple times.
Advertise
CRENSHAW: He`s running this way, he turns his body towards this way. Hands in the air, being compliant.
He gets shot in the face and chest and goes down and dies.

O`DONNELL: Joining me is NBC news Ron Allen in Ferguson, Missouri tonight.
Ron, what is the situation there now?
RON ALLEN, NBC NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Well Lawrence, it is very tense. Behind me you can
see there are police who are blocking this intersection. And they have on riot gear.
Just in the last half hour or so, since we`ve been out here they`ve taken out their guns and they
moved to a much higher state of alert. There are crowds milling around in this area. The focus of
concern is about two miles, a mile and a half from here down this main road, a road that`s blocked
off to get to from most locations around the city.
2014, Oct 4
SATURDAY HISTORY CALL
37 / 42
There`s a crowd down there of perhaps a couple hundred people who have been milling around, there are
reports of gunfire, there are reports of tear gas being fired, we can`t confirm any of that. There are also
indications there may be as many as 200 to 300 police from nearby communities here again to try to keep
a lid on things.
We`re also talking to some community leaders who were at this intersection who want to go down there to
try to talk to the people of the community, to try to urge them to be peaceful. They say they were told
there`s been a fatality down there. They don`t know who it is, they`re not sure of what`s happened. They`ve
also been told there`s an ambulance here, that the authorities are trying to get down into that area. But we
heard on the police scanner that it`s not safe. The police are saying it`s not safe to bring an ambulance
down to that part of town right now. That`s where there was a lot of violence last night, a lot of looting, a lot
of tension. That`s also very close to the neighborhood where Michael Brown was killed a couple of nights
ago.
So again, you can see on this corner around me, there are a number of people milling in different
directions. We`re hearing car horns blaring through the streets. Just people out there in the night
trying to see what`s going on. Some taunting the police, some yelling at the police as they go by. But
again, just a night of tension here. We`re not sure exactly what`s going to happen. The authorities
are on high alert. And another long, hot night here in Ferguson -- Lawrence.
O`DONNELL: Ron Allen, thanks for joining us. We`ll be back to you if anything else develops there.
Thank you very much, Ron.
Joining me now is James Clark, a community activist in the St. Louis area. He`s the vice president
of the better family life organization. Advertise
Mr. Clark, how have the police explained the multiple shots fired by the police officer in this case?
JAMES CLARK, ST. LOUIS COMMUNITY ACTIVIST: Well, up to this point we have received limited
information from the police. We are expecting to receive more information tomorrow. And so we are looking
to have a portion of this situation satisfied with that information.
O`DONNELL: Because of the situation of a police officer firing their gun, each shot has to be justified. And
whatever the justification the officer thought he might have had for the first shot, once that hits the victim,
it`s very hard to see what justification there could possibly be even in the mind, even in the imagination of
an officer after that first shot.
CLARK: Well, we are concerned about the number of shots. We are concerned that a single shot was fired.
This is a situation that a cop that probably could have been resolved without shots fired. We understand
that the officer was also equipped with a taser.
So we are looking for justice in this instance. And we are very, very confident that justice will prevail. But we
are taking this opportunity to also learn something. We have been very, very neglectful in the St. Louis
community, as in communities all over America. When you look at the urban core, there is an obvious
disconnect where we have allowed a subculture to grow and fester within our neighborhoods. And so we
must learn that we cannot shut people out. We cannot disregard people`s needs to be welcomed into
society because these individuals are now angry and they have the right to be angry. So -- and we in some
way have to thank them for giving us a wakeup call. But now that we have the wakeup call, we must
mobilize and go into our neighborhoods and offer them a sense of hope and a sense of purpose.
O`DONNELL: James Clark, I know you`ve been working to calm the neighborhood. I want to play what
Michael Brown`s grandfather said about what has happened there in reaction to all of this.

have expected this ending to his life and to ours with him. God bless him and God bless us all for his life. I
cannot believe this. I am overwhelmed with grief. What a wonderful man, boy, and what a tremendous
talent in the most important art of any time, comedy. I loved him."
Joining me now, Jeannie Wolf, a Hollywood journalist who spoke to Robin Williams fairly recently.
Jeannie, joining us by phone, you interviewed robin about two months ago?
JEANNE WOLF, HOLLYWOOD JOURNALIST (via phone): I interviewed him about two months ago
but I`ve interviewed him countless times over the years. Many, many times. You know, even right at
the "Mork and Mindy" days. And, you know, I see what Chevy was saying. I think that when this
news hit news rooms in L.A. today, first of course everyone scrambles because they have to get the
story ready. But there were tears. There were really deep, heartfelt emotions. People thought they
knew robin. They had witnessed a different kind of spirit than almost any other artist you know.
O`DONNELL: Yes, that`s the way it was here at the NBC news bureau at universal studio.
Jeannie, two months ago, how did he seemed when you were talking to him?
WOLF: Well, I went to the quite fabulous "crazy one" which was his show then. At that time I don`t
think there was any notion that the show would be canceled. He was with the rest of the cast. And
he seemed to love being around the young actors. He loved doing the show. He loved the fact that it
had emerged into more of an ensemble show.
Advertise
And I don`t think that Robin was very good at hiding his feelings. He seemed contented. He seemed
proud of what his work was. I didn`t see signs of depression. And you know, even if he didn`t try to
tell you how he was feeling, he would usually kid about how he was feeling. So I don`t think that this
-- he`s a very private man. But I think that his reaction that night on the set was a very satisfied, you
know -- a kind of happy guy. But happiness always balanced with what Chevy Chase just called that,
demon of depression.
O`DONNELL: And Jeannie, he discussed that with you a little bit in some of the other interviews you did
with him over the years.
WOLF: Many times. You know, he wasn`t afraid to say that if he was doing a serious part, it would
get him down. He wasn`t afraid to say that on location he got lonely and he would be foolish enough
to start drinking again.
He wasn`t afraid to talk about how he knew how dangerous it was for him, drugs and alcohol. He
would be funny about it. He says, I had a pint of vodka in each bottle -- in each pocket, one in the
left pocket, one in the right pocket, I like to keep things balanced. He was funny about the things that
bothered him most. And he could be serious about it. But he understood the life of a star, the life of a
-- the energy that it takes to connect human being to human being to make another person feel.
O`DONNELL: Jeannie Wolf, thank you very much for joining us tonight with your memories of Robin
Williams. Thank you very much.
WOLF: Very sad, very sad.
O`DONNELL: Coming up, we`re going to have more of the joy of Robin Williams.
