That proves it. There is nothing you can do to get fired at CNN.

Good luck and congratulations, Richard. May your life be most blessed.

I wish this man no ill will and a successful recovery. That said, he has a voice made for the telegraph.

Anderson Cooper was the first to greet Richard Quest back with a hug and a reach around.

[rickmv]

Man, I laughed out loud. That was good.

Good Luck Richard. We all fall down, but we must get back up again. Best Wishes

[OsamaBushLadin]

When he fell down it was because he stepped on his rope. Ouch.

yeah, where's corporate news' coverage of this guy? I guess so long as he buys his CIA crack and doesn't try to regulate wall street he's safe to continue S&M in the park.....

[scorpioleidy]

Seriously? Crackheads can knowingly work at CNN? Yipes ... line 'em up!

[peachfuzz]

Doesn't sound wired anymore.

Good Luck, Richard.

preorgasm man can get pretty crazy.
post orgasm man thinks rationally like: what the f*ck was that all about?!

no one would ever want "preorgasm man" to be stamped into history.
he is a crazy sort, who wants what he wants.
when the little head becomes the big head and head is of the essence,
one tends to think irrationally.

sex is a crazy horse, and those condemned for riding it
are like birds convicted of flying.

not sure what i'm trying to say here but this:
cut the fellow some slack.
in your darkest moments - how you would hate them to be international headlines.

good night, and go f*ck.

I'm glad he's back. He is definitely a unique reporter and always made me smile. I'm sure there are many of us here who have taken a fall sometime in life and returned. I'll look forward to seeing him on the telly.

[Witchitalineman]

Oh good. I can't stand this guy either way.

[mamacat]

A pat on the back for having sought help, and best wishes to a continued sober life.

A fact of life is that recidivism tends to be very high. Some studies have said that only 5% are able to permanently kick the drug habit.

To anyone reading this who is contemplating experimenting with drugs - please don't. Addictable drugs really do destroy lives, and an addiction can become overwhelming with surprisingly few tries.

[mimsnpips]

Good for him. Rehab is a way out of a bear trap wrapped around the addicts' mind and body that just keeps getting tighter. Too bad it still has a stigma (mainly in fundamentalist circles).

[booksnmore4you]

Well, good for him.

Drug addiction is not the end of life or a career if it is faced honestly, nay, ruthlessly, and defeated.

[zizyphus]

Well, it's not his fault, it was the crank...it can make you do some pretty weird things. I remember this speed freak J. who would geeze up a huge hit of meth and stay in the bathroom all night. He would only come out if someone had to use it. But in the morning, that room was immaculate.
