In his monologue last night (video - about 1/3 of the way in), Craig Ferguson told the story of the first person who introduced him to Kurt Vonnegut -- his drug dealer -- who gave him Slaughterhouse Five and said "Here, this will blow your mind."
Thanks to heartonastick (who also has a tribute to KV) for telling me about it and sending the link!
So it goes.

Wow. Are you kidding me? This is one of the dumbest fucking monologues I've ever seen in my life. Really. I'm a long time fan of this blog... but really... is this actually on CBS? God save us all. Actually, this guy's existence is probably a good thing for us all...because if this guy is our competition, I think we all have a really good shot at winning.

You were supposed to skip to 1/3 in! Yeah, actually, only about one minute isn't terrible...I should have just quoted the drug dealer story, sorry.
