Louie: no question, maybe you won’t read this and maybe this wasn’t at all what you were going for, but it would mean a lot to me as a fan to just tell you how moving and magnificent I thought the “Late Show” trilogy was. I’m not going to tell you some bullshit about how it changed my life, but fuck me if I don’t go listen to the CBS Exec’s monologue almost daily to help motivate myself to keep going and taking opportunities and aspiring to bigger things. Even if ultimately, it might only ever earn me my own “fuck you Letterman” moment. Thanks.
“...But you can change that. It's in your power to change that. Yes, you'll have to work hard. You'll have to do things you haven't done before and still your chances are very slim. But you could change it. I'm going to ask you one more time: David Letterman is retiring. You want his job?”

Why are you freaked out? He's the one who should be freaked out. He skipped out on you, and I'm 100% sure his wife doesn't know the full story. You could cause some serious trouble in his life if she somehow found out.
That's not saying you should do that, but if you go conspicuously about your life as normal, while quietly and calmly making him wonder if you might be planning revenge now that you have the perfect opportunity, you can make him worry and lie his way into a private hell without even lifting a finger.

On big planes (think 747, A330 and larger) flying long international routes, some of them have small bars as amenities in the First class area. Here's an example that gives you an idea of how it fits into the cabin usually, although there are larger ones.

Can you provide some background on why specifically you believe injecting snake venom slows your aging? Saying you have the telomeres of a 28-year-old means little, as telomere length can be highly variable between individuals and doesn't always correlate well to longevity or incidence of chronic conditions associated with aging. Sometimes it does, but a lot of the findings from mice and lower organisms haven't yet been observed in humans and there's some rather dichotomous theories over telomere length and cancer out there also.
I don't believe (personally) that the science is really at a place where we can say injecting snake venom with the goal of slowing telomere degradation and thus aging is a good idea. What was your thought process in deciding that it is a good idea?
