Barbra:

This is so, kind of wild, because I'm, when I was a kid, I mean a younger kid, my favorite shows on telivision were always the Oscars and the Emmys, you know, I never really cared who won, or anything like that. I used to watch how they, how he looked and how she looked, and was he drunk or was he drunk. [pause for laughter] And so, it's like a funny thing, I think I have a run in my stocking tonight of all nights. [pause for laughter] Anyway, um, I think whats so marvelous about uh, this business, this television thing you got going for ya. Uh, this is my first experience with it, and I was completely thrilled because I couldn't believe the amount of people that watch you in one given amout of time, lets say like an hour, which was my special. And, um , I figured it out that it, I'd have to work in the theater, in Funny Girl, 58 years to, um, reach the same amount of people. [applause]Thank you... and thank you Danny.
