|    22 February 2007 - Jimmy Fallon, Keith O    |
|    23 Feb 07 01:51:08    |
      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Tivo listed guests this night as Peter O'Toole and Hellogoodbye, forcing       me to wonder when Jimmy Fallon's name was mentioned to wonder what kind       of sick, twisted world it is when Peter O'Toole is *second* to Fallon.       It turns out I read the listings for Leno's show.       Max is:        - In need of a stick to get his point across.                     Conologue:        - Denmark and Lithuania are pulling their troops out of Iraq.       They'll pull out the same day so all four guys can carpool. He acted       out a carpool. Bush flew to North Carolina to discuss plans to cut gas       consumption. The best idea was to not fly Air Force One to North       Carolina; he can take a bike. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have       been sniping. Good news for Obama is bickering with Hillary is making       him look Presidential. The audience may have been correct about that       response. Arnold Schwartzenegger called John McCain a great senator and       good friend, as McCain is so much easier to pronounce than Rudy       Giuliani. And then he eats a sausage. Ikea (don't woo) (he contests       the audience with this) (it goes too far) (the joke has no chance) will       start charing for plastic bags at the checkout counter. They'll come in       two sizes, Gluten and Sven. A ten-minute setup for *that*. Paris       Hilton's birthday is this week; she threw herself a birthday party and       brought two dates, explaining why she said, 'No cake for me, I had a       sandwich in the car.' (A pause, gasps of horror, then a round of       applause.)                     Walkover Music: Up Around the Bend, Creedence Clearwater Revival.                     Strange Story on the Internet:        - La Dolce Vita. Its owners filed a copyright infringement       against a porn producer. Max is disgusted by the shameless filth       merchant. Max wanted La Dolce Vita and was shocked to find it was some       old Italian movie instead. This never happened in renting Star Whores       or Romancing the Bone. They had trouble with the flag unfolding, which       outrages Max. You'd think gravity would handle that.                      It's time to look into the future, all the way to the Year 2000:        - Crazed gunmen will hijack a jetBlue airliner and force it to       go to its scheduled destination on time.                - Angry parent groups will get the letter 'Q' kicked out of the       alphabet when it's revealed that it's just an 'O' with its junk hanging       out.               - Britney Spears will reveal the reason she shaved her head is       to reduce aerodynamic drag as she plummets from fame.                - ( Jimmy puts on deelybops. Conan disapproves. )                - N'Sync will partially reunite when Justin Timberlake stops in       at a chili's and Joey Fatone takes his order.                - Controversy will erupt at the Oscars when Helen Mirrin       dedicates her award to whoever shot Biggy Smalls.                - Soul music will become less popular when the women stop       calling women 'Baby' and start calling them 'Me Hearties'                - George W Bush will no longer be referred to as America's       Dumbest President but instead as America's Most Successful Retard.                - In a poll where people are given a choice between Hillary       Clinton and Barack Obama sixty percent of women say they'd rather vote       for Obama, and eighty percent of men say they'd rather sleep with Obama.                                   Jimmy Fallon:        - His parents were around last time; they've lost their minds.       They met his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The night before       Mom called and said 'OK, don't get mad,' but his Dad is missing a tooth       because one was knocked out. The dentist won't take him. He just won't       smile, despite being a happy guy. And she was rubbing her eye in her       sleep and has a bloody eyeball. Dad kept his money in his bathing suit.        He microwaved it to dry it off. There's metal in money now. The       microwave caught on fire. He and his girlfriend went to France for ten       days, and had only one fight, that lasted nine days. Touch of Woody       Allen and John Travolta combined. He got to perform with Pete Townshend       of The Who. They met at a Madison Square Garden show. Got to get on       stage to sing 'Let It Be' with Paul McCartney. There was another       celebrity who didn't want to walk out with Pete and wanted to do better.        It was Regis, who wanted the Scissor Sisters. He dyed his hair blond       for 'Factory Girl', which sounds like a good idea until you try it.       Things get on about Ty's hair; I don't know who Ty is in this context.       He took a camera picture of Jerome Bonaparte, which vaguely resembles       Conan with an exposed brain.                     Max got some red wine on his tie:        - Maybe he should be 'Max Winestain'. God shows up to tell him       that's the stupidest joke ever made. He orders Gabriel to give him the       shotgun and blow up Earth over that really bad joke. War, tidal waves,       famine, those happen for good reasons; Wine Stain a child would know       better. God blows up the planet; that was just a model to scare Conan.       That gives Max the chills. Conan suggests naming him Max Iceberg. God       chases Conan with a baseball bat.                     Keith Olberman:        - Thanks for having him back after only nine years. He was       renewed on MSNBC, rare by itself. 48 more months till it's over. He       does a countdown to the worst person of the world. Not just bad people,       but more political or societal, like two doctors in Serbia, one who was       treating a patient. The other walks in and slaps him; they start       fighting in the middle of an appendix operation. Those would be the       worst people in the world that day. Bill O'Reilly shows up on the list       not more than once a day. He's ... He's an idiot. Conan's a fan as he       has an O' in front of his name. Spring Training's started. Olberman       has a large baseball card collection; his writing career started on       baseball cards. Some are collector's items. He brought some. Tops 1972       Billy Martin: he's got one finger holding his bat. They wanted to see       if they could get away with that. 1966 Claude Raymond: his fly's open.       Next year, he had the same problem. His face looks like a crazed sex       offender. Or that he's been surprised with his fly open. 1989 Billy       Ripken: Apparently an accident. There's something written on the bottom       of the bat, 'Krunk Face'. No, 'Muck Race'. Olberman knows what they're       going to put on after firing him; who are they putting on after firing       Conan? They've got someone ready on a chute, like a Dixie Cup. They       pull a string, new guy drops in, blahblahblah, 'We've got a great show       tonight'!                + My dad insists on the car on listening to right-wing talk       radio despite his not agreeing with anyone to the right of Nelson       Rockefeller. The guy the other day talked repeatedly about the network       'PMSNBC', which in his little world is apparently considered witty.                + Incidentally, The New York Times reports that Jimmy Fallon's       been signed to a development deal with NBC with particular interest in       making him Conan's successor on Late Night.                     Steven Kaplan, Bread Expert:              [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
