   30 October 2007 - Ethan Hawke, Joe's   
   02 Nov 07 23:08:05   
   
   From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu   
      
   Ethan Hawke:   
   	- Last time he was on the show it was for a play.  Something   
   happened shortly after he appeared: he was doing the play, Richard   
   Easton who plays his father had this monologue with an angry scene.  And   
   he had a full-blown cardiac arrest, timed so that it looked like great   
   acting.  He's fine now.   
   	   
   	- But the asking audience for a doctor in the theater, that   
   looked like part of the theater being weird.  Weird stuff happens in   
   Manhattan theater.   
   	   
   	- His brother was in Iraq, but he's all right now.  Did he know   
   growing up his brother would be a Green Beret?  Well, he'd be in the   
   basement and come up with a working crossbow that can shoot an arrow   
   into a tree, or he'd go camping ready to build a hammock out of twine to   
   sleep in the tree.   
   	   
   	- From about 16 to 24 Hawke was the arty instrospective wingman   
   and his brother was the jock.  Together they did very well.   
   	   
   	- Last year he got very into Halloween, with two kids, a five-   
   and nine-year-old; they all went a American Indians in feather and   
   warpaint.  With the woo-woo-woo.  But they had fun, a kid with the   
   trevace ... pulling a sled with his mouth.  They don't know the word for   
   it.  Conan just goes out as himself.   
   	   
   	- His film's a thrill and it's great working with everyone.   
   While watching the clip, Jeff Ross came up to put his hand on Conan's   
   shoulder, making Conan fear death, and announced that 'trevace' was   
   correct.  (I can't figure out what word they were going for.)   
      
      
      
   Joe's   
   	- Conan ruined the World Series.
