1. My sister worked at 30 Rock and said she saw him tipsy in an elevator
BEFORE he was supposed to do the Nightly News ...

But that only makes me like him more! I'd love to have a
beer (or a bourbon) with that man!

5. I've never heard that about him --
I know as I've aged I've gotten a little ruddier around my chin, cheeks and nose, and I'm not a boozer.

10. Welcome to DU. Might want to wait awhile before you start telling others where they belong, though.

15. Back when he was the anchor
I noticed his speech was garbled a lot. It drove me nuts, to the point that I couldn't watch him. My mom is a nurse and said his speech could be the result of medication, especially for high blood pressure. Who knows.
