   10 December 2008 - #2686 - Jennifer Connelly, Bradley Cooper, Alec Greven.   
   	Conologue.  Rod Blagojevich said he'll resign ... if the price   
   is right.  It's Blagojevich's birthday; for the second day in a row   
   federal agents jumped out and yelled surprise.  The former head of Papa   
   John's pizza has been appointed CEO of Dunkin Donuts and Baskin Robbins;   
   at his press conference he declared, ``what can I say, I have a gift for   
   making America really freaking fat''.  A gun manufacturer is making a   
   gun for old people; it's called a musket.  Three Kentucky Fried Chicken   
   employees have been suspended for bathing in the sink used to clean the   
   dishes; experts are trying to determine if this is gross or just sad.

   	Glass Half Empty/Glass Half Full.  A segment I haven't seen   
   before except in The Dennis Miller Shows old The Case For/The Case   
   Against.  Rod Blagojevich was arrested for trying to sell a Senate   
   seat/Sarah Palin is no longer the most embarrassing governor.  A joke   
   done on Letterman too.  The police will have machine guns at the Times   
   Square ball drop this year/They'll be pointed at Ryan Seacrest.  Conan   
   discovers all sorts of words he can say now.  Includes horrible joke   
   about layoffs forcing women into prostitution ``from Max''.   
      
   	'Tastic guy.   
      
   	More guys than usual at the studio: two operators on the camera,   
   extra cue card guys, studio wall holder, studio wall holder spotter,   
   cellist, cellist spotter.   
      
   Jennifer Connelly:   
   	One of her kids has been dating for two years; he's at the   
   interval between play-dating and actual-dating.  They cooked a nice meal   
   together: veal and pesto mashed potatoes.  He second film was an Italian   
   horror movie as a sleepwalker who communicates with insects and whose   
   best friend is a chimpanzee.  Chimps are the worst to work with.   
      
   Bradley Cooper:   
   	He's in a lot of movies but still nearly anonymous.  Was asked   
   to autograph as Matthew Perry as he was near him in a movie; so he did.   
   Was kind of unrealistic about audition prospects early on.  Would tape   
   line and play scenes with himself.  Figured to stage a fall with the   
   camera; it didn't work.  Met Robert DeNiro with a taped audition.  His   
   mother played the DeNiro part.  DeNiro ``could tell there was a   
   relationship there''.   
      
   Alec Greven:   
   	He's only heard Late Night is really, really late.  Greven   
   observed at the playground how boys had problems with girls.  Playground   
   relationships can last as long as recess, maybe.  Could go five days.   
   Long-term love is for later.  Really pretty girls ditch boys more often   
   than regular girls do.  Advice to boys: don't show off.  Don't tell lame   
   jokes.  Praises Conan's joke-telling skills.  ``Are you available to   
   come back tomorrow night?''  Don't act desperate.  Don't be hyper; cut   
   down on sugar if you have to.  It's the heart that matters.  Try ``hi''   
   as an opening line, or ``did you see that episode of (?)''.
