Gawker readers weigh in on Tracy Morgan's Barnes & Noble appearance, for his new book I Am The New Black. One says, "Wow. I wasn't expecting him to dance like a monkey, but neither was I expecting to leave the bookstore depressed... At one point, while talking about his father and his mother, he broke down crying," while another says, "I left feeling slightly inspired. He spoke at length about how we need to interact more as a community, that we need to get off the computer and stop listening to our iPods and interact with fellow New Yorkers."

Unfortunately, I depend on my "iPod" to drown out the moronic jibber-jabber of cell-phone junkies.
I almost cried when I read the 20 Questions with him in Playboy this month. Until now, I don't think he's ever spoken about his father dying of AIDS and his description of carrying his 80 pound father up the steps to his house almost had me in tears. If I had been reading the book, I'm sure I would have fallen apart.
that interview is the first i've seen that he's mostly out of character. after all the shit he's been through, he really is some kind of comedic genius and absurdist hero.
Dance like a monkey? wtf
