I found a great place to connect and talk with parents of children with autism and adults with autism online at www.trusera.com. It's great that autism is finally getting the attention needed.

The funniest part of the evening was at the end when Jon was BEGGING for money and no one in the audience wanted to donate. Evidently they didn't think they got their money's worth and they didn't. The second funniest part was the phones not ringing off the hook. All the "stars" just sitting there....what happened to REAL comedy. If you ever do this again, how about trying to get some CLASS onstage. Where was Shelley Berman??? At least we wouldn't have had to listen to an annoying BLEEEEEEEP for several minutes. Come on Roger..are you still on strike? The jokes and laughs were smaller than Tina Fey's breasts.

The entire production had me rolling from start to finish, not because it was good, because it was awesomely bad... i absolutley loved it. Ben Stiller had the most hilarious bit with "They didnt start autism". Jon did the best job of holding that s**t pile together, he truley demonstrated that he is ready for a prime time network host job. Really watch the first half of the even and you will see where im coming from, awesome job Jon, horrible job Comedy Central... but hilarious in reslut.

He tries to be funny from time to time, but in all, the show was terrible!!! The jokes were not that funny, it all seemed poorly- scripted and poorly-acted as well. There was unnecessary language and comments. And what's with the censure-bleep- guy... he couldn't keep up with Adam Sandler's F-bombs!

(ex: the part where we're supposed to sing along, declaring that stars are more important than all other breeds) Just ask the writers, producers, and participants of "Night of Too Many Stars". I watched on and off for 15 minutes, then changed the channel. Crash and burn, smoking hole in the ground.

SOOOO not funny. You don't have to do only gay jokes and what is funny about being a Jew? Did Rosie have a brain tumor or did she just forget what comedy is? SOOOO not funny.

Or is this like a "friends" thing? Sorry, had to ask. But STILL will support I find the talent and the cause a perfect way to spend an evening.

So, to the point. I am a single mother of a 4 year old, spectacular little boy, he has autism....caused by mercury poisoning. Thanks again for that bill Frist you ignorant, self important monster, and of course the current administration. I work in child advocacy in the Outer Banks of N.C. If nothing else comes of this letter, I would like to sincerely thank everyone who is giving their ear to this critical epidemic. I've read the books, I write parent testimonials for grants in this state, my son Lucas was the poster child for UCP/Easter Seals last year, I have given speeches. Parents of autistic children often are frustrated, and asking Why me? I feel sorry for them, My son has taught me so much more about life and fighting for what you are passionate about. I would love to be a part of this celebration, the acknowledgemnt of a problem left untreated for far too long. I realize its a long shot but I believe really have something to offer. I wish it was money but, it is simply a story of a woman who was blessed with a child who knows only pure love. I will leave contact info, and in the meanwhile thank you all again....we will be watching. (252)646-5812 125 shipp Ln. Bogue,NC 28570 Very Sincerely, Tara and Lucas To whom it may concern,
