      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Ann Curry:        - Conan has more makeup on. She rubs his hair, and Conan rowls.                - She does three hours of TV daily, soon to be four, and night materials too,       there may be too much Curry.                - They do a lot of stuff inside, then outside, and back again. Once she ran       so fast to the Top of the Rock -- and they'd just opened it so she didn't know       where it was -- and she ran right into a glass revolving door, breaking her       nose. The security        guy asked if she wanted to sit down; it hurt more than childbirth. But she       had to do the interview.                - Blood was dripping out her nose, and they had thirty seconds to air. She       wiped her nose and now, we're going to be talking about decorating. Her eyes       were as big as saucers, and she covered her nose to stop the blood. So the       audience only saw the        horrified looks of the interviewee, who didn't drop the beat.                - And she had to interview Brad Pitt the next day. Brad Pitt kissed her and       thought it added character.                - Her life seems in peril for some Today Show segments. They've had her jump       out of planes twice. Swim with sharks. The second jump was a tandem jump,       and the wind took them far away from the right direction and they ended up in       someone's backyard.        Matt Lauer didn't know where she was, so all she could do is knock on the door       where the guy ... just saw you on television. Despite the weirdness of that,       he did have a car and could drive her to the location. Matt Lauer gave her a       locator so she        could always be tracked down.                     Gary Vaynerchuk:        - He wants to build people's palettes. He feels wine is broken in America.        He compares ordering the 'wrong' wine to ordering the wrong toppings on pizza,       which is pretty impossible.                - There'd be descriptions of wine as being like grass and grapefruit; he       wanted to see what that was like. He's eaten cigars. These aren't just odd       confessions; he wants to taste the influences in wine.                - Try a little grass, then some sauvignon blanc. Conan thinks he wishes he       didn't have the grass.                - Now, wet rocks in salt water, and you need to lick the rock. For the       minerals and salt water.                - Cherries, dirt, tobacco. Does he do this in the restaurant? Eat some more       dirt.                - Burgundy tends to be mushroomy and earthy and sweaty sock-y. Conan refuses       to taste Vaynerchuk's sweaty sock, but agrees to taste his.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
