1 April 2008 - Helen Mirren, Wylie Gustafson, Carbon Silicon
Jimmy Is:
Drunk? Wondering if it's the last show of March or first show
in April. It's the best show in April.
Introduction:
Clinton challenged Obama to bowling. Some weird haircut
comment. John McCain old. Cuba is modernizing, making a raft with
cup-holders. CIA making a Wikipedia for its intelligence; Facebook
joke. Vatican believes Islam has passed Catholicism; Pope credits the
genius of that 72 virgins thing. Larry King old; View hosts shrews.
Floridians old. Southern New Jersey folks don't like folks from
Northern New Jersey; could lead to mullet-on-mullet violence. Paris
Hilton disinherited; will have to earn $2 billion back the hard way.
Late Night Staff Member Wet Jeans Contest. America Wins!
Michael Coleman: Gone to a new job in insurance. Had 10 days to
clean out his office; his junk is still in there. He has 24 hours or we
start giving his junk away. Keyboard, DVD -- Girls Gone Wild, 'Actually
Was For Research', Clothing, electric knife from Dr Joyce Brothers,
Autobiography of Rutger Hauer, red ski pants, creepy jester lamp.
April Fool LaBamba. It's mean but totally fun. There's a
spider on his back. Sure it's fun, but the joke could be on you.
- The Wet Jeans Contest feels like the sort of thing that might
have worked up as a way to fill time during the Writers Strike, and
that's a good thing. Similarly the Michael Coleman bit has the playful
fun nature of that.
Helen Mirren:
Great winning an Oscar. Autobiography. Conan couldn't talk
about his parents' sex lives. Mirren finds it natural. ``No! It was a
magical rabbit!'' Caligula was difficult, particularly in letting her
mother visit on the set. She's the coolest mom. Picture of her
one-and-only acid trip, which was fantastic. London's West End can be
dodgy. Football supporters chanting 'Arsenal!' into Chekhov. Crazed
drunk guy from the trash was Keith Moon. She had to go on stage; he'd
come with her. Regret not being on-stage with him.
Wylie Gustafson:
He did the Yahoo yodel. He screwed up; they have the copyright.
Chicks dig yodelers. Practice by yourself at first. Epiglottal
stretch. Conan tries. Knock-Knock jokes. Little-old-lady-who ...
They'll rock out.
Carbon Silicon:
The Last Post: Why Do Men Fight?
