      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Max is:        - In a hand-shaking mood. It felt good. Conan and Max are       getting married.                     Conologue:        - Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are getting married; you can't boo       someone's wedding. Tom will give all the guests hand-embroidered towels       with his and her initials. Katie will give them hand-scrawled notes       that say ``Help me''. Arnold Schwarzenegger visited Mexico to thank       everyone who voted for him and eat a sausage. Bush planned a visit to       foreign countries this week because he's unpopular at home. The White       House points out he's just as unpopular overseas. A restaurant in       Arizona started selling the Quadruple Bypass burger -- two pounds of       burger meat in four slab, three cheese layers, four bacon rashers,       lettuce, tomato. To help you get into your car they rub the bacon       grease on the doorway. Democrats plan to raise the minimum wage because       something must be done to protect Kevin Federline's future. Federline       was performing in concert when he went off on his divorce and said F---       Britney. No one in the audience was offended because no one was       offended. ``We will help K-Fed, and put a man on the moon and do the       other thing ...''                     Walking over: They're down with the funk, and ordered to never say that       again.                     Shocking Statments from the Max Weinberg 7:        - Elton John said we should do away with all organized religion.        That got him in the news. Why not get publicity for Late Night by       having their musicians say something like that? S               - Mark Pender: Children should be breast-fed till they learn to       ride a bike!                - Jerry Vivino: If you have two kinds of VD they cancel each       other out!                - La Bamba: I think it's a national disgrace that it says 'Made       in China' on my bong.                - Jimmy Vivino: Cosmetics should only be tested on really ugly       animals.                - Scott Healy: Homeless people have one too many kidneys                - Mike Merritt: A midget on a budget should be called a mudget.                - Max: one thing I've learned from touring on the road, the       kitchen staff at Applebees really puts out.                - Joel: It's not gay sex if you imagine you're a lady! ...       We're not playing Announcers Reveal Things They've Got To Believe To       Make It Through Another day?                            NBC's Made-For-TV Movie about the Elections:        - Joe Lieberman: Teller, from Penn and Teller.                - Montana Senator John Tester: Biff from Back to the Future.                - Nancy Pelosi: Martin Short.                - Rick Santorum: Woody from Toy Story.                - Chuck Schumer: Grampa Munster.                - John Kerry: An Easter Island stone head.                - John Murtha, running for House Majority Leader (that's the       before picture! We worked too hard on this one): Ernie the Keebler Elf.                       - Robert Gates: Pope Benedict Palpatine.                - Donald Rumsfeld: Skeletor.                - Dennis Hastert: Boss Hogg.                - Laura Bush: The Joker.                - George W Bush: Patrick, from Spongebob Squarepants.                     Robin Williams:        - Ramble ramble ramble, he grew up in San Francisco so saw a lot       of cowboys but no horses. Conan met him at Saturday Night Live;       Williams was one of the first celebrities he was around. One of his       vivid memories was Williams with his shirt off for a costume change, he       was the hairiest man Conan's ever seen. It's like he's wearing a fur       coat. Occasionally he's had to wax, once, and a woman halfway through       asked if she could take a break. He felt like a sheep when he was       shaved. Ramble, ramble. He goes on about nipples. Give him a minute,       he can grow a beard. Conan could try for a couple years and get two red       hairs. Williams goes into an annoying Chinese voice, and claims to have       an eight-inch penis. More rambling and it gets onto a diaper and       Williams in a child voice.                - He's into biking. People can't ask for autographs at 25 miles       per hour; you can wear those pants and people go ``Dancer?''       ``Bicyclist.'' He wears the pants around the house, and people say,       ``Take those off.'' Problem with biking is you can get into it and end       up 50 miles away and realize, you have to get back. He's done about 70       or 80 miles. Last weekend he did 53 miles in about three hours. Riding       with someone else, you can draft.                - Conan got interested in comedy by Warner Brothers cartoons.       Williams's favorite was Elmer Fudd, and imagines him in 'A Streetcar       Named Desire'. With his son he felt like Sylvester and Son, ``Oh,       father, must you do what you do, must I wear two bags in case one       breaks?'' And then he gets onto World War II propaganda cartoons.       Marvin the Martian had a suppressed episode in which he talked about       walking on his own testicles, and then called himself ``harder than       Chinese algebra''.                     Cheap Shot on the Band:        - Well, it looks like Conan has hurt Max's feelings. He needs       to say he's sorry and quick. To say you're sorry is to ... apologize.       Let's see if Conan will ... apologize. (Conan looks in horror at this       sailor guy.) I'm Captain fun! I do a children's show across the hall!       I overheard you and Max and thought it would be a good lesson for the       kids to see if you ... apologize. ( Conan says he's sorry, and Max says       that's okay.) Now, kids, you see what Conan did? He pretended to be       sorry just to please me. A people-pleasing liar is called a ...       hypocrite. (I'm not a hypocrite!) A ... hypocrite! (Don't say that       anymore!) Oh, I would, but Tuki the Toucan will. A ... hypocrite!       (That's the worst puppet I've ever seen in my life!) Well, that's what       happens when you show your kiddy show's entire ... $50,000 budget on       ... Instant Scratch-Off Lotto Tickets. (Captain Funn, that's terrible)       Captain Funn has a ... gambling problem. Well, at least I'm not an ...       alcoholic. I have ... Four drinks a day, tops. Well, i call that a       problem. I need it to relax, the tension in our home is killing me.       Oh, so, you want a divorce. (Guys, guys, guys, take it outside the       studio, will you?) Fine ... I'd rather be dead than stuck one more       second in this stinking rattrap of a show.                             Christian Slater:        - As a child actor he worked at Radio City Musical Hall, the       Christmas Special. When he was twelve -- they all played several roles.        Did the Living Nativity Scene about five time a day. He was a shepherd       with the sheep and all that sort of thing. But they don't have enough       microphones for everybody in the cast, so they used the prerecorded       voices to the years before. They did that on Late Night for two years.                       - He's got two children. Is his seven-year-old aware his dad is       a well-known person? He does; he tells the lady at the drive-through       burger that his father is Christian Slater. It's cute but awkward when       your son is your publicist.                - Anthony Hopkins could look through you. ``Bobby'' uses actual       footage of Bobby Kennedy in an artistic way. It would be hard for Conan              [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
