|    17 May 2007 - Amy Poehler, Dave Annable,    |

      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Amy Poehler:        - They hung out with Will Arnett, her husband, in San       Francisco, and Conan had a romantic dinner with him. Arnett       appreciates the roses, and says they'll have a secret show, just the       two of them, every few months.                - There was an If They Mated done with them a few months ago;       it's kind of like Jay Leno's old ``Beyondo'' bit. It's a reason for       birth control. Looks more like Arnett.                - She's an American Idol fan. She's struck by how       contestants' faces, and how they look when one knows they've screwed       up ... or when they really killed. With a good monologue joke Conan       swells up with pride. Poehler enjoys the post-singing part, just       before they're judged.                - Simon Cowell: she agrees with what he says when he says       something, but it doesn't look like he's always paying attention, just       saying, ``Yeah, I agree.'' She likes when people get cocky with       Cowell. ``You're terrible.'' ``Well, you're just jealous because       you're not terrible.''                - The Dog Whisperer. She loves interviewing the dog owners.       ``AhIDunnoWhyMyDogIsSoHyper...'' It's fascinating. Conan turns into       a blues singer to say, slowly, ``I don't know why my dog is so slow''       as played at 16 rpm.                - You have to be high-status, getting off the elevator first.       It works for people too. Conan's quite cruel that way in elevators.       ``I Go First, Sucker'', that'll be his celebrity autobiography. It'll       sell two copies.                - She's Snow White in the new Shrek movie. She believes White       has a type-A personality, and imagines the bathroom is gross. They       show her using her powers of singing to attack a castle. The first       song is from Megan Hiltie (sp?), a professional singer; the second is       by her. Led Zeppelin's tough to sing. And then the lyrics are awful       and bizarre, and they go onto hobbits putting on shoes.                - She's doing a movie with Tina Fey this summer.                     Dave Annable:        - Conan is very tall. He grew up in Orange County, and a       woman loves the concept of oranges. He moved to Hollywood, like Conan       did, to become a male model. It was a huge adjustment.                - Cool, though, is the weather. He bought an '89 BMW       Convertible. But he sings in the car, and is horrible. In the heavy       traffic, people everywhere listen to how bad he sings. Conan sings,       causing animals to stop mating.                - Is he dating Sally Field? It's just because they're on the       show together. She plays his mother. But he showed him mom the       magazine and said they were in love. His mother cheered at being       Sally Field's mother-in-law.                - Conan's tabloid stories are, like ``O'Brien Bad Tipper'' or       ``O'Brien Squints At Sun''.                - He lost weight for a role, a war vet. With man-boobs and       love handles this would be really embarrassing. And what if he only       lost the love handles? He just wants to have one ab, which is weird;       you want either none or the whole pack. He wasn't successful; they       had to do custom light.                - Conan heard makeup can give you a cut chest, and he'd be       very interested in that himself. Annable thinks it's true, but asked.        The makeup guys said yeah, they can draw some legs on.                - He was called for an NHL Celebrity Blog, and to be with the       Stanley Cup. It's like the Pope. He got a little too excited,       started making out ... he started to think of stories of where it's       been, like, every nudie bar on the planet, and ... it needs to be       boiled for a hundred years before anyone touches it again. So if you       have a doctor here ... ``I have a disease ... I'll talk to Conan,       he'll fix it!''                            M Ward:        - From ``Postwar'', and joined by Neko Case, Kelly Hogan, and       Jim James from My Morning Jacket (?). The titles on the Amazon link       don't strongly suggest which song it is; it is the sort of thing       pleasant to listen to on a dark, rainy afternoon while drinking tea       and wondering how you got to this point from where you were in high       school.               http://www.amazon.com/Post-War-M-Ward/dp/B000GGSMDA/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
