[Nobodys Happy!] - The Francis Tibbles Show 09/07/2011
EMCEE: I'd like to introduce a man with a lot of charm, talent, and wit. Unfortunately, he couldn't be here tonight, so instead here's Francis Tibbles! FRANCIS TIBBLES: When I was preparing for this speech I asked my family for advice. My Wife replied, "There's a first time for everything, so try to be funny and brief."

A lot has transpired in my life. A lot of ugly things have happened. Things that.....I've done some pretty bad things in my life. And uh, all came to a head. But now, after treatment, going for inpatient treatment for 45 days and more outpatient treatment, I'm getting back to my old roots. Well, it's all in the police report. Beyond that, everything's between Elin and myself and that's private. Well, I owe a lot of people an apology. I hurt a lot of people. Not just my wife. My friends, my colleagues, the public, kids who looked up to me. There were a lot of people that thought I was a different person and my actions were not according to that. That's why I had to apologize. I was so sorry for what I had done. Well, I had gotten away from my core values as I said earlier. I'd gotten away from my Buddhism. And I quit meditating. I quit doing all the things that my mom and dad had taught me. And as I said earlier in my statement, I felt entitled, and that is not how I was raised. LISTEN: |
