   9 August 2007 - Cuba Gooding Jr, Conan O   
   11 Aug 07 02:17:17   
   
   From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu   
      
   Cuba Gooding Jr:   
   	- He works a little dance into sitting down.  He was big into dancing as a   
   kid.  His father's a musician; so he did The Robot.  The Black Robot.  Conan's   
   The Very White Robot.  His is the same moves but he steals your wallet.  He   
   borrows.  Don Rickles    
   is calling.  His dance as a child turned into mime.  It didn't work.   
   	   
   	- He was MacGuyver's sidekick a while.  His wife and her friends think he's   
   obsessed with duct tape.  It may have rubbed off on him.  He'd make a duct   
   tape omelet.  He can fix anything.  He was driving his car and bumped off a   
   tree (that's not crashing,    
   sure, the tree jumped in front of him; it was the tree from The Wizard of   
   Oz).  The light was broken, so he took it to the repair shop, and they   
   replaced it, but they missed the inside screws so one light would point down.    
   He took it down, screw wasn't    
   working, so he balled up duct tape and now it rides perfect.  Problems with   
   your marriage?  Duct tape.   
   	   
   	- Daddy Day Care: His kids have seen it multiple times and love it.  His kids   
   loved Elmo and kept watching.  He'd hear 'This Is Elmo's Train' in his   
   dreams.  He'd have dreams of being assaulted by Elmo's Dream and screaming   
   ``Elmo, no!''  He has a movie    
   clip culminating with a blown-up guy with a toilet seat around his neck,   
   despite the fact he is not McLean Stevenson.   
      
      
   Conan O'Brien Hates My Homeland!   
   	+ Folks in Ukraine may have just been upset that Conan keeps calling it ``the   
   Ukraine'', when they're trying to drop the preposition from the country's   
   name.  Reuters's public feedback column gets a couple angry letters whenever   
   they slip and say ``the    
   Ukraine'' too.   
   	   
   	- The exclamation point and Conan's face with a dagger through his head is   
   universal so it doesn't matter they can't read the letters.   
   	   
   	- Virgin Islands: maybe you wouldn't be if you weren't so ugly!   
   	   
   	- Wallis and Fortuna: the reason for your peoples' long lifespan?  Not even   
   death knows where you are!   
   	   
   	+ They're south Pacific islands, east of the northeast corner of Australia,   
   east of Vanatu, and about 2000 miles west of Tahiti.  They have about 15,000   
   people and are a French overseas collectivity.   
   	   
   	- Yemen: if you think Yemen is too tough on shoplifters, raise your right   
   stump!   
   	   
   	- Zambia: don't let anyone tell you that you're dirt-poor!  You've got plenty   
   of dirt!   
   	   
   	- Zimbabwe: you'll come for the country's pristine beauty; you'll stay   
   because rogue soldiers have chained you to a burned-out jeep!   
   	   
   	- That was the last country!  They're done with Conan O'Brien hates my   
   homeland (and they deploy confetti for the third time this week).  Tune in   
   tomorrow for Conan O'Brien Read My Home Address On The Air.  There are 120   
   million addresses in the US    
   alone, and he'll read every one of them!  The lawsuits will fly!
