|    7 August 2007 - Glenn Close, Trade Deadl    |
|    09 Aug 07 21:30:05    |
      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Glenn Close:        - 'Fatal Attraction' changed her dating life, and her visits to pet stores.        Particularly in elevators. She was never good at dating, and has the knife       still. And now children recognize her as Cruella de Ville from the       live-action '101 Dalmations'. A        child came up to her and she did the Cruella laugh. The child burst out       crying.               - New York City lets you be the bag lady you are, but sometimes people will       say she looks better in life than in the movies. Is that a compliment? Conan       gets the same thing, and is told that after he owes whoever he's talking to       money. Maybe they        just want to touch her hair. Conan gets that too.                - She's sometimes mistaken for Meryl Streep. She supposed it happens to       Streep; when Streep was pregnant last a Los Angeles store gave her all sorts       of free things and told her, ``You were great in Fatal Attraction''. Conan       gets he was great on Happy        Days.                - Her granny was tough, ran away from Texas to New York and worked in a bank       in World War I. She was a Yankees fan, and would watch games, smoke, and play       cards; she knitted a pillow for Phil Rizzuto and didn't hear from him.        Somehow she got him on        the phone and demanded to know where her thank-you note was. She should have       sent threatening pillows.                - She loves dogs. Sad, being Cruella. Next week she premiers a blog for dog       owners. Pure fun for her. 'Lively Licks: Profiles of Dogs And Their       Humans'. Max has the same blog title. Ted Danson and Debra Massy will be       part of it. If your dog        wrote an autobiography what would the title be? ``My Owner The Genius.'' If       your dog was a famous person who would he be? ``Harry Hamlin, he's very       good-looking but not the sharpest knife in the drawer.'' Is there a secret       only your dog knows? ``He'       s seen the horror that is Conan naked.''                - Rumor is she loves dogs so that she sometimes eats dog biscuits. She used       to eat them all the time when she was little, and couldn't believe others       didn't. A woman in the front row says her too. She last ate one in a while       ... Conan has a Milkbone        box. She nibbles on one, and gets Conan to try it. Conan takes the box to       the audience where one woman nibbles too. They take a long time to chew and       swallow. Maybe they should look at the ingredients. Conan thinks this       terrible advice. She worries        about anal leakage.                     TV Talk Show Trading Deadline:        - Now they can't trade on-screen talent. They've made great trades in the       past -- Triumph to Charlie Rose once, sprucing up the interview with Bill       Gates. Manzy, half-man, half-pansy, to The View. Vomiting Kermit to Larry       King Live.                - They're going to try trading Abe Vigoda. Unacceptable offers: Today       offered an Epson printer. Dateline: NBC offered a ficus and some used       highlighters. America's Got Talent offered David Hasselhoff. Many trades       happen at the last second, though ...                - They have Abe Vigoda for another year! Yay!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
