Late, Late Show's good, good guy

Let's all raise a glass of sparkling grape juice to Craig Ferguson, late (or is that late, late?) of The Drew Carey Show and present host of CBS Television's The Late, Late Show.

From The Associated Press:

LOS ANGELES -- Craig Ferguson decided not to poke fun at Britney Spears for at least one night.

The host of CBS' "The Late Late Show" told viewers Monday that after seeing photos of the 25-year-old pop star's shaved head, he reconsidered making jokes at the expense of the "vulnerable."

"For me, comedy should have a certain amount of joy in it," Ferguson said. "It should be about attacking the powerful -- the politicians, the Trumps, the blowhards -- going after them. We shouldn't be attacking the vulnerable."

Ferguson recalled his battle with alcoholism and said he worries Spears may be having troubles of her own.

OH . . . AND IT LOOKS LIKE Britney's giving rehab another shot. Let's hope it takes this time, and that she can get a grip on Demon Rum . . . and Demon Sex . . . and Demon Crappy Self-Concept . . . and Demon You, Too, Can Be as God . . . .
