   20 September 2007 - Simon Pegg, Mystery    
   21 Sep 07 02:08:47   
   
   From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu   
      
   Simon Pegg:   
   	- Pegg was last here seven weeks ago.  This could start a most   
   exciting romance.   
   	   
   	- He got robbed in New York City.  Lost his camera, phone, iPod,   
   all these things.  But they got him on the security camera; the thief's   
   got a MySpace page, which struck him as weird.  He could look up what   
   the guy who ripped him off and see what he does.  Favorite music   
   Coldplay, hobbies love to rob.  He considered joining MySpace to see if   
   the robber would add him.   
   	   
   	- If you're going to steal a digital camera, at least leave the   
   memory card.  The burgled will think you're thoughtful.   
   	   
   	- The New York Post headline on this was 'Spider-Man Fails To   
   Save Kirsten'; the press won't stop giving Spider-Man a hard time.   
   	   
   	- The new movie works with Hank Azaria, so it was the chance to   
   talk with every voice in the show.  Azaria would cough in-character when   
   the cameras start rolling, sabotaging his work.   
   	   
   	- Azaria didn't bother with a nude suit for his nude scene, and   
   just went nude.  Pegg kept seeing Moe the Bartender and Apu.   
      
      
      
   Mystery (The Pickup Artist):   
   	+ He looks like everyone of the guys my little brother lived   
   with in college.   
   	   
   	- Last time on the show he wore goggles; now, someone stole his   
   Harry Potter Quidditch goggles.  Might be the guy with Pegg's camera.   
   Check his MySpace page.  Now he can go around and ask people to tie his   
   wrist thing to prove he's had girlfriends before and never will again.   
   	   
   	- He learned to lie and open up strangers and how not to weird   
   them out.   
   	   
   	- Pegg once told a woman she looked like an angel who'd fallen   
   from heaven.  She turned around: she'd fallen on her face.   
   	   
   	- Mystery's best opener ever: 'Hi.'   
   	   
   	- If you say one interesting thing, 'that's interesting'.  If   
   you say ten interesting things, 'you're interesting'.  Fish cough, which   
   he learned on Snapple through fun facts.  But it turns out Snapple Fun   
   Facts are not all true.   
      
   	- Ever consider what it's like to be pursued by a larger person?   
      
   	   
   	- He compares ways to get into a group of people to the way   
   horses get together.  You have the pinwheel hat, your fake beard, and   
   your boxing gloves on, and you want to share Snapple facts, so you   
   circle them and whinny.   
   	   
   	- Mystery would make Conan's Merv bigger and more grand, to use   
   as a pickup tool.  And Conan has rapport, so once he's past the hair he   
   has something.
