Yep. It was 9/13/93 and David Letterman had been KICKED OUT of the hot seat as Conan O'Brien took over Late Night and completely "enthralled the world" ( just as Watership Down the movie had done back in 1978 ;) ). Anyway, I've really got nothing to say, nothing new to report. I got college happening and . . . yeah, that's it. Hope things are going ( Read more... )

I think it's amazing he got anywhere. Before Late Night, he wrote for SNL and appeared on the show with a minor role every time. He wrote 4 episodes of The Simpsons ('New Kid on the Block,' 'Marge vs. the Monorail,' 'Homer Goes to College' and 'Tree House of Horror IV: The Simpson's Halloween Special IV'). He produced a show called 'Lookwell' about a retired actor who played a cop on TV that solves crimes in real life that never made it past the pilot. Yet he beat David Letterman out of a job! LETTERMAN! They essentially gave his job up to a nobody, Conan O'Brien. HA HA! I think it's all very humorous . . . but awesome at the same time. 12 years and counting. GO CONAN! I shouldn't make him out to be some loser, though. He graduated magna cum laude (that's among the best, I think) in his class at Harvard University and got a BA in History & Literature ( ... )
