      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Max is:        - Odd.                     Conologue:        - Conan's audience saw Bush's speech. It was from the       White House Library, ``My books on tape room.'' He's listening       to James and the Giant Peach, read by James Earl Jones. As will       often happen his rambling after the mediocre joke was stronger       than the actual Conologue joke.               - Bush called Daniel Ortega to congratulate him on the       election. Told Ortega he loves his taco shells.               - Arnold S. wants to spend billions rebuilding       California's infrastructure. Great except for his trying to say       infrastructure for 45 minutes.               - Britain plans to send a British person to the Moon.       They have to figure how to dehydrate meat pudding. Conan's soul       drifted away. Very little audience approval.               - The company making Taser guns started selling them to       the general public, in the Accident Waiting To Happen Aisle.       With two bad jokes, he skips the next and goes to:               - Yesterday (this gets applause) Britney Spears was       selected as 2006's worst-dressed celebrity. Criticized for going       out every night wearing the same old vagina.                      Walkover Music:        - Sledge Hammer!                     Johnny Vance is there from Sydney, Australia:        - He looks like Dave Thomas (of SCTV). They're on at       10:30 am there. On every channel. Conan goes a bit nutty. But       the show's big. Why is he dressed like a ninja?                     New Characters for 2007:        - Ronald Trump; the Suicidal Ant; Kevin Moriarty; Lindsay       Lohan's Appendix; The Carpet Sample Man Was Never Meant To See;       Keith Chutney. Detailed consideration given in another thread.                     David Arquette:        - Ah, it's not my impression. He did used to be on all       the time. He's no longer so nuts now that he's married. He's       given up his tapestries of naked ladies with animals. Also       vintage playbooks. In 'I Was A 50s Pinup' he found pictures of       his mother. She was in a movie called 'Olga's House of Shame',       which was another story.               - His sister Patricia got married, and they had to wear       kilts. Conan thought he looked all right when he had to wear       one. David didn't like it, as he doesn't like his legs. He       shows his calves, which are kind of ugly. Conan's calves are       nice and smooth, and the color of white margarine.               - His movie coming out April 20 is about hippies who meet       a guy obsessed with Ronald Reagan. Johnny Vance knew.               - He's started chasing paparazzi to take their pictures.                     A Guy in the Audience finds every Guest for tomorrow Guest-Tastic.        - He doesn't like the monologue, and reads about gum       disease instead of the comedy bits. They're terri-tastic.                     Lonny Ross:        - Meeting people you've done impressions of: awkward? He       met Ray Romano, and had trouble resisting slipping into that       impersonation.               - He was an intern at Late Night years ago. He had a lot       of great moments, he says now. A few days into his internship he       was sent to porn shops for a specific porn video. Why? He       doesn't know. Conan can't figure why they would have wanted       that.               - Big difference getting actually paid for working now:       he has to take sexual harassment seminars. Not to learn how. He       doesn't envy the person who has to give that speech to comic       actors like Tracy Morgan. Morgan asks, if he wants sex, is       wearing sweatpants, and gets an erection, is it sexual       harassment?                     Chuck `The Iceman' Liddell:        - Ultimate fighting involves fighting with lots of       things, though not fire extinguishers or mailboxes. There's a       lot of boxing in very rapid succession; the referees seem able to       stop things before they go too far. Conan practices his       scary/annoying boxing. Picking out a good nickname is       troublesome.               - Trash talking doesn't really get to him. But they're       not allowed to cuss.               - The sport used to have very few rules; they're gaining,       like rules against eye-gouging, and strikes the groin are frowned       upon. No finger in any of your opponent's orifices.               - Conan asks for advice on defending himself, but I had       to turn the TV down because my Dad insisted the TV was waking him       up what with it being as loud as the heating system. The Iceman       broke a finger, though.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
