SNAPSHOTS FROM HOME
[A University Diaries Series] LIVE FROM THE GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY.... I Dana Carvey at Lisner Auditorium: 'Carvey also struck a chord with parents in the audience by continually referring to GW as "$48,500," a take-off on the school's steep tuition, which hovers around $34,000 [GW is currently the sixth most expensive college in the United States.]. "When I went to San Francisco State, our tuition was 95 dollars a year ... and we rioted!" Carvey said.' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ II Jon Stewart at the Marvin Center 'ANNOUNCER: Live from the George Washington University, Paul Begala and Tucker Carlson. (APPLAUSE) TUCKER CARLSON, CO-HOST: Welcome to CROSSFIRE. ...STEWART: I would love to see a debate show. BEGALA: We're 30 minutes in a 24-hour day where we have each side on, as best we can get them, and have them fight it out. STEWART: No, no, no, no, that would be great. To do a debate would be great. But that's like saying pro wrestling is a show about athletic competition. (LAUGHTER) CARLSON: Jon, Jon, Jon, I'm sorry. I think you're a good comedian. I think your lectures are boring. STEWART: Yes. CARLSON: Let me ask you a question on the news. STEWART: Now, this is theater. It's obvious. How old are you? CARLSON: Thirty-five. STEWART: And you wear a bow tie. (LAUGHTER) (APPLAUSE)' |
