   Rebecca Romijn:   
   	- Conan, rightly, compliments her for dressing up.  And she's   
   engaged to Jerry O'Connell.  Will she take his last name?  Probably   
   just the O.  She wants him to add a silent J to his name.  ``Erry   
   O'Connell''.   
   	   
   	- They have a tandem bike.  It showed up in tabloids.  It   
   looks very posed; it's not.  But he did make them wear matching   
   Wheaties jerseys, the only day they've taken a big spill, and she has   
   a scar to prove it.   
   	   
   	- When you're in back, you can take breaks on the tandem bike.   
    In back you can't steer, you can't break, you can't see what's going   
   on; it's good couples therapy and requires compromise and trust.   
   	   
   	- In the spill, they weren't going fast, but he saw what was   
   going on, and jumped off the bike.  Conan is pessimistic about their   
   prospects, and says he and she should get dinner.   
   	   
   	- She must have die-hard male fans other than Conan.  She got   
   letters about her luscious melons from this guy with very curly   
   handwriting.  ``I love to look at pictures of you and your luscious   
   melons, I would like to see a picture of you and your luscious melons   
   in a pink bikini, or a black bikini ... when's your birthday?''  They   
   intercut with Max.  Isn't his birthday February 2?  He says yes.  He   
   claims she's mine.  Max glares.   
   	   
   	- Ugly Betty: she's on as a post-operative transsexual.  It's   
   a funny role.  She's never seen anything like it.  Conan thought it   
   would play as a joke once, but it seems to work.  She's made many   
   transgender friends.   
   	   
   	- Last week Rebecca Geyhart was on as her character's   
   girlfriend pre-op, and gave her a goodbye kiss.  Romijn wasn't   
   worried; there's only so much you can do in prime-time network TV.   
   They had a short kiss, and a long embrace, and couldn't stop laughing.   
    It was the director being creepy.   
      
      
   [ Dave and The Wave ]   
      
      
   Donald Faison:   
   	- All the NBC stars are in town for up-fronts.  Scrubs is   
   coming back.  Faison's banned from up-fronts.  He mistakenly thought   
   Jeff Zucker was a publicist.  He's the head of NBC.   
   	   
   	- This was back in season one, before the show was on the air.   
    They threw a big party.  He got a little drunk, getting happy and   
   kissing people, and looked in the corner and saw the NBC publicist ...   
   he thought.  And called the guy over.  He shook no.  Faison said get   
   over here.  Zucker shook no.  Faison figured this was his big night,   
   and this guy's not saying no.  He put Zucker in a headlock, got ready   
   to kiss him on his head.  Just before he kissed him Zucker screamed,   
   ``Please, Donald, no!''  He now runs all of NBC Universal.  But   
   Faison's still got a job, he just can't go in a room where Zucker is.   
   For a long time Zucker kept his distance.   
   	   
   	- It seems like a fun set.  Yes: he annoys a lot of the cast,   
   but otherwise they're friends.  He likes to sing a lot, and   
   impersonates Neil Diamond singing the Transformers theme.  (``What are   
   you talking about?  Pierre Bernard knows.)  o/` The Transformers ...   
   more than meets the eye! o/`   
   	   
   	- Conan spent some time as a comedy writer ... how did you get   
   an idea like that?  Faison would watch WPIX, and they had Neil   
   Diamond's Greatest Hits.  He doesn't know any full song Diamond has,   
   since they only sang four words of it on the commercials.  He gives an   
   ongoing medley.  So he thought The Transformers would be great for   
   Neil Diamond.  (Frankly, it's not a bad idea.)   
   	   
   	- He's a serious Star Wars fan.  There's this Robot Chicken,   
   doing a Robot Chicken Star Wars, Lucas is involved; Faison's involved.   
    They got to the Skywalker ranch to see the screening.   
   	   
   	- He saw Empire Strikes Back 350 times as a kid.  He knows the   
   dialogue cold.  What's his favorite section?  He'll set it up.  Han   
   and Leia had their first lover's quarrel, and the group is together on   
   Hoth as Skywalker returns.  Solo: ``Well, your Highness, looks like   
   you managed to keep me around a little while longer.''  ``I didn't   
   have anything to do with it ...''  this goes on.  Carries on to   
   Chewie's laugh, and Solo's ``Laugh it up, fuzzball.''  Conan's sure   
   Chewbacca never cackled that way.  Faison just doesn't have a   
   Chewbacca voice.   
      
      
   Silversun Pickups:   
   	- From ``Carnabus''?   (I like bands that have a real record,   
   by the way.)  The lead guitarist is every guy from the campus paper I   
   used to be on.  Can't figure out the lyrics and right now the Internet   
   Service Provider is throwing a major hissy fit so I can't look up   
   likely titles on Amazon.  Sorry.  If I remember before posting this   
   I'll try to replace it, but we all know that won't happen.
