      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Conologue:        - Yeah, still not worked up about Donald Trump versus       Rosie O'Donnell. Chuckle at identifying it as the ``least       creative feud ever''.               - Fisher/price Digital Cameras: I knew a guy -- a       grown-up -- who bought a Barbie Digital Camera on the grounds it       was cheap. He was disappointed by its resolution. And, I       imagine, the way it made everything look pink.                     Walkover Music:        Here Comes Santa Claus                     The Orange County Gingerbread Swimmers Get Into A Hot Tub:        - I don't know whether I want Conan to do children's       programming or not. Andy would have perfectly delivered ``Well,       they're dead. Happy holidays!''                     New Holiday Stamps:        - Celebrity Snowmen: Nicole Richie's looked like a       character from 'A Bug's Life'.               - George W Bush's Nicknames for Nonchristian Holidays:       What a convoluted start. I liked Japanese 4th of July. Weird       Circle-Bushes.               - Rejected Elmo Toys: Sick. Funny.               - Least Popular Christmas Wrapping: Cheney Claus was the       funny one. Naked Jon Lovitz on Reindeer was too busy a setup.               - Jesus Getting Another Year Older: Suppose they were       drawn by Rob Smigel's TV Funhouse guys? They looked like that.               - Shameful Secrets of Popular Christmas Carols: They       should've gone out on Jesus Getting Another Year Older.                            Classic Holiday Specials:        - A bad note? Why don't we get to hear those things?               - A Charlie Brown Christmas: 1965 isn't quite the right       year for Nixon-slogging, though it should have been, and should       be done as much as possible.               - The Year Without A Santa Claus: Nicely done, yes.               - It's A Wonderful Life: It's a surprisingly harrowing       movie, in truth. People forget. Little exaggeration needed.                     Carson Daly:        - Wow, he still exists? I thought the celebrity       ecosystem took care of problems like this.               - I suppose it's neat to bicycle the Pacific Coast       Highway. Isn't it possible, though, to bike ride in something       not embarrassing? I guess there just isn't much chance to wear       spandex in decent society. The notion of talk show hosts       pitching in to keep easy celebrities safe isn't an unamusing one,       though I was intrigued by Conan's mention that he'd do without       the jokes if he could.               - He may be the first person excited to be on MSNBC. OK,       Carson had a good quip about being on at the ball drop.               - I have absolutely no desire to be at Times Square for       the New Years Celebrations; I can't figure people who want to go,       when there's the options to instead be in places that are warm,       are not being snowed or rained on, where you can take a bathroom       break between 5 pm and 1 am, and where you're not packed against       strangers.               - You know, he's living in a sitcom premise. He was       dressed as a slice of pizza? That's just weird. Stick to       costumes as people.                       Michelle Trachtenberg:        - Hey, yeah, I thought she'd been on before. I forgot       the penis cake ... it only sort-of sounds like something they       might have done. No clip?               - I'm not surprised Conan watches House. Very odd but       somewhat amusing anecdote about Hugh Laurie. I'd have been       distracted by Black Adder riffs.                       Nellie McKay:        - I'm certain she meant to sound like that, but I didn't       find it as funny as I think she meant it to be.               - The closing theme sounds good with the flute addition.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
