      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Max is:        - Sincere as always.                     Conologue:        - McDonald's introduced a Happy Meal with American Idol-inspired       toys, including a microphone, sunglasses, and Paula Abdul shotglass.       Michael Bloomberg wants to copy a Mexican anti-poverty program, a bus       ticket to Los Angeles. Bush will meet the Prime Minister of Japan, as       Bush calls him, Mister Miyagi. Jessica Simpson's father has offered to       manage Ricky Spears's career, noting, she's like the third untalented       daughter he never had. Wal-Mart is opening 400 health clinics in their       stores, important as 50 percent of the people they'll treat there won't       have health insurance. Those people are Wal-Mart employees. Angelina       Jolie has petitioned to change her Vietnamese Orphan's name to       ``Vietnamese Orphan Number 7''. When the band is booing he has a       problem. Former New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevy's ex-wife says, in her       book, that he's not really homosexual; McGreevy, furious, asked how many       guys you have to screw to get your wife to call you gay? In my       experience, eight.                     Walkover Music: Dude Looks Like A Lady. Is there anything Max wants to       tell us?                     YouTube Sensation:        - Nora the piano-playing cat. He's here tonight! It looked       better in rehearsal. She does classic, to, while not looking. Late       Night with You Shoulda Seen It At Rehearsal. She's a shy performer.                     13th Annual Audiencey Awards:        + Didn't they just do this like two weeks ago?                - Best Impression of a celebrity: 3-F, Vin Diesel.                - Conan Christopher O'Brien Award for Being The Whitest Guy in       the Audience: 12-B.                - Audience Member Who Knew He Might Be On TV But Wore That Shirt       Anyway: 4-C. With some college dorm print on his shirt. Oh, it's dogs       playing poker.                - Best Contortionist: 10-A. He flips his head.                - She show's broadcast to some of the Armed Forces. They're       right over there, by the exit, watching on a monitor. Both of them.       They didn't think the cat was that good.                - Guy I Was Gonna Make Fun Of Until I Realized He Could Rip Me       Limb From Limb: B-17. He punches his fist some. The soldiers don't       think Conan could take him. His bicep is three times thicker than       Conan's leg, but he shouldn't gloat.                - Best Audience Ever: 19 February 2007, seen in a picture. He's       kidding. It's from 21 March 2007. All right, it's you guys.                + Note that there *was* an Audiencey sketch on both 19 February       and on 21 March, so my impression that they just did it is valid.       Curiously, poking on my server indicates the 19 February summary wasn't       posted, although                              Darrell Hammond:        - Think he'll be loud Regis or quiet Regis? Everybody has one.       Conan learned his from Dana Carvey. Hammond does Regis scat-singing,       although that's Popeye.                - The Donald Trump/Rosie O'Donnell fight: don't pick a fight       with Trump. ``If I had a nickel for every time someone says that ...       oh, wait, I *do*.''                - Bill Clinton: would he enjoy being the First Husband? In the       White House, with no responsibilities besides hanging out with all the       First Ladies of other countries ... Hillary Clinton always has the look       like she hates -- here the Tivo reception started getting wonky. Sorry.        She could scare bad guys out of the country, though.                - What would Dick Cheney be like as President for a Day? ``Look       at the world map on that computer ... try and find Korea ... It's not       there anymore, is it?'' Yes, he'd be a mass murderer eagerly.                - How would you deal with being in a world where you were always       right? This gets on Dr Phil somehow, as if he were facing Kim Jong-Il.       ``My dog can hump a table leg, but that doesn't get you puppies, okay?''                            Conan O'Brien Hates My Homeland:        - Turkey: Formerly the Ottoman Empire, whose greatest       achievement was inventing a piece of furniture to rest your feet on.                - Turkmenistan: Why don't more people give their children       Turkmen names? I don't know, let's ask President Gurbanguly       Berdimuhammedow.                - Turks and Caicos: Where the National library his housed under       the reception desk of a Sandals Resort.                - Tunisia: Remember that scene in Star Wars where they're on       that desert planet and go into a bar with all those weird creatures?       Well, guess what, that was filmed in Tunisia and those weren't actors.                - Uganda: Situated right between Rwanda and the Sudan. Jealous?                            Andrew WK:        - He's written seven songs with ``Party'' in the title,       including ``Party Till You Puke'' and ``Party Party Party''. What's the       key to it? All his songs are party songs, as in celebrations.                - He's sure there are times Conan felt like not coming in, and       when perspective is lost and he feels obligated and trapped, then WK is       there to tell him that he didn't have to come in there. Conan agrees       then: he quits. All right, no, this is Conan's dream job, but there are       moments, like when the cat's arms pop off, that your soul leaves your       body and you wish you were on the high seas in the 17th century stealing       gold.                - Why is he a motivational performer rather than a speaker? He       doesn't just speak. He can move spastically around. That was one of       those moments Conan felt like doing something else.                     Blue October:        - From ``Foiled'': I believe it's She's My Ride Home. Pleasant       song, made well enough, but I'm not going to remember it by the time you       read this summary.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
