      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Dane Cook:        - He tries nicknaming him Snow Conan. Conan's never had a       successful nickname as his original is too weird. ``On your feet,       Vit!'' Vit wonders why he came to this horrible country.                - Halloween is a great night for crime. ``I can describe the       man who assaulted me, he looked like Napoleon Dynamite!'' He had to get       inventive as a kid.                - He couldn't get Underroos; he offered to wear them out for a       costume. His dad promised to look up Underroos. What he got:       Fruit-of-the-loom. He's Casper the Ghost. With Boo written in in       marker. Which makes a lousy costume as Casper hated scaring people when       it couldn't result in the death of a raccoon.                - Cook's always annoyed by the guy who goes as the giant penis.       He'll go as the giant vagina and bump into him all night.                - Masseuse humor: his masseuse was a big fan. It was the       best-worst insult when she said in annoying Boston accent, ``I have an       idea for a TV show that I would love for you to be part of.'' It's an       interview show, she's the masseuse, rubbing celebrities. Ozzy Osborne       from Black Sabbath, and she'd show how Ozzy Osborne from Black Sabbath       was really articulate. Like, how you're not funny.                - Cook was the face and voice of annoying the Major League       postseason. (nb Conan: a baseball *playoff* is at the end of a season       to break a tie in the standings and see who goes to the postseason.)       They annoyed baseball-viewers when they came on during baseball games.               - His dad was scouted to play; he was steeped in baseball       growing up. Cook would really like the seats where he and his dad sat       when the Red Sox broke the curse.                            Coming Up Tomorrow Night:        - Conan carries on proudly explaining who'd be on the show if       there isn't a strike. You can watch it online in Slovenia! Vit is on       tomorrow too, whatever his plans were.                - The Writers Guild may be going on strike; they represent       almost all TV writers including Late Night's staff. So if there is       you'll be deprived of their unique, incisive social satire, and never       idiotic or arbitrary. Isn't that right, Cactus Chef Playing ``We Didn't       Start The Fire'' on the Flute?               - In a commercial Brian Williams mentions that due to the       writer's strike the show may be really super-funny this week.                      --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
