Couldn't agree more. It was a very cool thing to watch on Friday.

I must admit, I got a little emotional ... Veclemped, some might say.

I'm with you on the transition of leadership moment. Now for what really does not matter. I wondered what the real spelling of "veclemped" might be. Don't know if it can be trusted, but I went to the yiddish dictionary online and they say it's farklemt...

I don't watch their shows, but I did for years. And I, too, felt a bit nostalgic about the hand-off.

I learned that I don't have to watch the Tonight Show because you watch it and you'll pull out the good stuff for me and deliver it to my Google Reader the next morning.

I don't think that the issue of generational hand-offs gets enough press. It might be one of THE issues that will affect our society in the next 5-10 years. By most estimates the last Baby Boomer will retire from the mainstream workforce by 2015. Given current economic trends many of them will most likely consult or start 2nd and 3rd careers - but what is means is that there will be a mass turnover of seats of power across every sector.
How this hand-off goes has massive implications. I won't spell them out, if you like to think about these things I'm sure you can list them. This is especially important when it comes to organizations that run like (or actually are) family businesses. A lot of churches run this way. There is a unique power in the hands of the patriarch or matriarch to build up or destroy the rising generations. I've seen one of these hand-offs go awfully and blow people up. I've also seen gracious leaders go the way of Jay Leno. Thanks for throwing this out there J - I'm constantly trying to grow in my capacity to lead towards legacy as opposed to protecting my own accomplishments or ability to control the future.
