TEAM CONAN

While I don't actually watch his show with any regularity ( I lean towards Letterman and/or Kimmel if they have guests that peak my interest) - I absolutely never watched Jay Leno. He came accross as irrelevant and quite frankly, a freaking bore to me. It just feels like the TV swine over at NBC is jerking everyone around with this unsubstantial-considering-the-state-of-the-world-today news item - most of all, the TV audience. Anyhow, my vote is for Conan - whatever the outcome. I watched his show last night and his irritation fueld some pretty funny remarks. Hmm... maybe we need to focus on the ridiculous from time to time to take our minds off poverty, hunger and war.

In other entertainment news - I am giving a shout out of support to Artie Lang - a regular on The Howard Stern Show. A recent suicide attempt by this talented comedian has Howard, Robin and countless listeners saddened at this terrible news. Artie did live through his attempt, but here's to hoping he finds the will to live and address the inner pain he must've been in. It's baffling how someone who can entertain and deliver laughs to so many can be a tortured soul inside. *sigh*

OK.... let's chalk this up to one of several in a series of 2010 blogs about...... whatever is on my mind at the moment.
