      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Max is:        - Giving the most normal exchange they've ever had on the show.       That ruined it.                     Conologue:        - Bush had a press conference; he was asked if he knew the       current price of a gallon of gas, and got it to within a few pennies.       Not surprising, as he spends most of the day watching The Price Is       Right. Candidates are announcing fundraising totals; Mitt Romney has       raised $23 million, Rudy Giuliani has raised $15 million; Tom Tankredo       raised two children. Dancing with the Stars is on; Joey Fatone danced       to the theme from Star Wars, proving there is something more       embarrassing than being in N'Sync. Shots were fired at a Nickelodeon       Kids Choice Awards party. Police say they'll apprehend whoever was       involved and give them a time-out. In New Jersey firemen had to use a       crane to remove a 700-pound woman from her house. She's doing fine, but       the crane is in critical condition. American Idol fans have started       calling Sanjaya's hair a pony-hawk, as a cross between mohawk and a       ponytail. Tgey also call Ryan Seacrest something that's a cross between       a douche and a bag. University of Florida won back-to-back NCAA       championships; once again, they're going wild in Florida.                     Walkover Music: Ray Charles's Mess Around:        - Conan thought it was Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel.                     Passover Started:        - Did Max's family have a nice seder? Did they observe the       usual traditions? Say their prayers of atonement? Child lighting the       candles of Abraham? Singing the hakish mul? So Passover's important?       None of them are Passover traditions, and he doesn't think 'hakish mul'       even means anything. Is he even Jewish? It's a stage name: he's really       Mike Wayne of Chappaqua, New York.                     Late Night Reject Characters:        - They're being aired just for a tax deduction.                - The Embarrassing Bowling Accident.                - Knights With Armor Made From 2004 Presidential Campaign       Buttons.                - S & M Lincoln, who *has* been on before.                - Lobster Jerry Lee Lewis. Note that it's red before being       cooked.                - Wind Chimes Jacob Marley.                - The Remorseful Fishhook. It begs the fish's forgiveness.                - The total deduction for the show: $789.00!                            Rosario Dawson:        - It's a cool aunt who knows how to do this shoulder-wiggle       thing. She's on a Rolling Stone cover. The photographer had this idea       for the pose ... maybe for years and years ... wasn't even a       photographer.                - Do women enjoy being in a strip club? She enjoys the       experience. It's amazing to watch in another country, too, with       different taboos. You can see in tropical places like Brazil or Hawaii       kids comfortable with their bodies. Conan wants to have photos of him       doctored to show when he was young. She remembers his little doll.       (``They shouldn't know about that, that was our little time together!'')                       - She's a fanatic for comic books, and has her own. She's a       huge Trekkie. She was with her sister and watched nothing but Law and       Order and Star Trek all weekend; she tried watching Battlestar Galactica       and got razzed that any good episode of it was done three years ago on       Trek. She speaks only a little bit of Klingon. Some of that Conan's       heard yelled at him on the street. she just made some nerds extremely       happy.                + Her being a Trekkie is convenient. I have her mixed up in my       namespace with the woman who played Bellanna Torres on Voyager.               - They did incredible car stunts with a `death-proof' car, and       you can see they were real stunts.                     Conan Hates My Homeland!        - Tajikistan: congratulations, you're where Uzbekistanis go to       feel better about themselves. (They're upset he can't say it right.)                - Thailand: where you can have sex with a 14-year-old prostitute       if they're willing to come out of retirement.                - Trinidad and Tobago: The Siegried and Roy of the lesser       Antilles.                - Taiwan: Oh, wait, you're not a real country, you're China's       krunk.                - Togo: You've got it all, and by 'it all' I mean risk of both       bacterial and protozoal diarrhea!                     Jason Sudeikis:        - Peyton Manning was host of Saturday Night Live a little bit       ago. Conan remembers athletes as most fascinating hosts as they were       wholly out of their element. As an actor, he was a great quarterback.       He got into it, though, the only problem was him getting to asking       people to quiet down when they were laughing too much at the show.                - At Goodnight, Everybody, Conan's always fascinated watching       what cast members do under the credits. Jason's done all the waving,       chatting, standing alone, that sort of thing. He got in trouble for       'air drumming' in the background; he didn't know what he was doing.       That wasn't really Jason playing, that was Max. He ruined it; so many       people at home thought Conan had invisible drums!                - The A Holes ... started as a late-night writing session,       inspired by chewing gum obnoxiously. He'd be a horrible guest. 'I hear       you got a book coming out,' 'Do you work out?' 'Yeah, a little,' 'I       know what that is,' 'What is it?' 'Phallic.' But everyone likes it, and       everyone recognizes it -- they're not doing anyone specific, but       everybody has this image of where the jerks in their lives come from.                     Martina McBride:        - From 'Waking Up Laughing': I believe that it would be       something along the lines of 'God is Great', but this album is *not*       linked to by the Amazon.com link from the Trowbridge page. Following it       leads me to 'Timeless', released in October 2005, and 'White Christmas',       October 2003, as the most recent releases.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
