	I don't know why I overlooked this before; sorry for that.  
Anyway.  I keep hearing rumors about Jimmy Fallon being the New Late 
Night Host, but I have to admit I still don't get why.  It seems kind 
of like a repeat of the rumors when Letterman was leaving Late Night 
that Dana Carvey or another former-Saturday Night Live-player would 
get the post.  It was a surprise when someone as obscure as Conan of 
April 1993 got the job, but it did also turn out very well; I'm not 
sure why they wouldn't try to repeat that good experience.  

	Has Jimmy Kimmel got something that really powerfully commends 
him to a talk show host role?
