Here is Jim Farris.

JF: Hello everyone and welcome to our new Silly Thinking feature, �Doug�s World with Jim Farris�.
I�m Jim Farris.

As regular visitors to �ST� know, �Doug�s World� was a regular weekly feature featuring our own founder and regular contributor, Doug Lain. We have received a letter and E-Mail wanting to know what happen to Doug.

Well it is my sad duty to report that Doug�s no longer with us. We here at �ST� will miss Doug and his one of kind contributions and his special courage. But as they say in show business �the show must go on�. So it is with a heavy heart that I, Jim Farris, continue as the new host of �Doug�s World� and will do my best to keep doing the feature the way Doug would have wanted it done, with integrity, guts, and a real point of view on the world around us. So with that in mind here is �Doug�s World�.

dOugS wOrlD!!

Tomorrow is the finale of �Friends�, the popular NBC situation comedy that has charmed the world and fascinated a nation. We will miss all the �Friends�: Bumbling Ross, Klutzy Judy, Bobby the actor, and of course, everyone�s favorite
Jane.

Thursdays won�t be the same without all our �Friends�. The �Friends� who helped us get over 9/11 with laughter and tears, the �Friends� who made us laugh and cry after the Iraq war, and most of all the �Friends� who got us thrOUGH that bout with venereal warts, with humor and more than a few tears. Milk prices are about to sky rocket and gas is now over two dollars a gallon, but somehow with the �Friends� on NBC that wasn�t important.

Now it is.

What will Thursday nights be like without �Friends�? That�s easy: unbearable. But life without �Friends� is now going to be a reality. So come Thursdays we�ll have to get know the �Survivors� on CBS or �Test Pattern Playhouse� on ABC, or even worse �WWF Smackdown!� on UPN. Yes without �Friends� Thursdays will no longer be �must see TV� because it�s going off the air, but we as a people are not. We will still be there waiting, waiting for NBC to thrill us, or sadden us with another comedy Milestone. Will it be �Law And Order: Friends Unit� or �Whoopi Friends�? Perhaps they�ll just show Donald Trump all the time. Whatever it will be it will not be our �Friends�. Because they are gone. Bumbling Ross, dead. Klutzy Judy, dead. Bobby, not dead and coming back with a sequel to �Friends�. But will it suck? Will it get us through the pain and anguish of 9/11 again? Will Bobby alone make us laugh and cry? Will one �Friend� take the place of three? Well four if you count him, but he will still be on. So I don�t know. And of course Jane, dead.

I�m reminded of a line from the haunting theme of �Friends� by the Rembrandts: �I�ll be there for you, I�ll be there for you, through everything you do�� Doug, wherever you are tonight I�ll be there for you, Ill be there for you, through everything you do�. even though, like �Friends� you're gone. Well that�s it for this week. Be sure to Join �Marlon Brando� and the cast of �Friends� tomorrow night. I�ll be back on Friday with �STHT� and Saturday�s it�s �Dead Celebrities�. Sunday�s join Hal Holbrook for �STShowcase�. On Monday�s join me, Jim Farris, for �STHT� and Tuesdays Connie Chung will be here with her new �1 On 1�.
