Craig Ferguson On Alcoholism, Gossip And Kicking People While They Are Down

Outtakes and various other sundries

Everybody knows how I feel about gossip and in particular, kicking people when they are down:

The Way Of The Culture - You’re Down? Great, Let’s Kick You!

Mr. Blackwell’s 48th Annual Worst-Dressed List - Finally, Some Decorum

satori sent me clip. Craig Ferguson Speaks From The Heart about his alcoholism and his rethinking mocking and making jokes about people in crisis.

I think this trend was a result of Pluto (and Jupiter) in Sagittarius and I hope with all my heart it’s seen it’s heyday.

That’s a great video…it interests me how Ferguson asks ‘Is the price worth it’ as well as he stopped drinking when he was 29 (Saturn Return).
I wonder where his Saturn is?

I’ve tried very, very hard to distance myself from gossip in the last few years. I find the best route is to let the person telling you something know: ‘I don’t feel comfortable you telling me this’ and if unwittingly told something, make a vow to yourself to let the buck stop with you.

Much like alcoholism, gossip is rooted in shame. Here’s to integrity!

I love Craig for his sense of humour, I love him for his accent…now I love him for his integrity too.

I have never heard this guy before but now I will seek out his stuff. He’s FUNNY!

First of all, it was a joy listening to him as both of my maternal grandparents immigrated from Scotland, and his accent thrills me.

Also, I just laughed out loud about 6 times. A ‘venti sherry.’ Hah! Hah! “Don’t know if he’s an alcoholic, only know he slept behind the bar,” Hah! Hah! “Forgot to kill myself that day,” Hah! Hah! Hah!

Elsa, as a former bartender, I wonder if you related to some of it that way. Myself, as one who cannot drink either, it was downright hilarious and also made some very good points.

Thanks for sharing this Satori and Elsa.

I didn’t know this person either but this is a very interesting video.

According to his birth data on Wikipedia (May 17, 1962 Glasgow, Scotland), his Saturn is 11Aqu very exactly square his Neptune in Sco. And also exactly conjunct his South Node. Moon could be in Libra or Scorpio.
