Late Night...

A very funny Late Night with Conan O'Brien last night. There was a report from American Idol tryouts in Hawaii by Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. He was thown out of the auditions and the local NBC affiliate did a news story about it. There is also a funny clip of him doing the weather report on the local news in Hawaii.

Will Ferrell was on talking about his movie Elf. He is always funny.

Finally Sarah Vowell was on promoting the audio release of her book The Partly Cloudy Patriot. I think that she was uncomfortable being out there with Will Ferrell at the other end of the sofa. Vowell and Conan talked about the Civil War, pointing out that Conan is the same height as Lincoln and Sarah is as tall as Lincoln's Secretary of State William Seward. She also explained her idea for a show similar to MTV's Cribs only it would show the homes of prominent historians such as Doris Kearns Goodwin.

If you missed it, I think that it will be on Comedy Central on Monday. Set the VCR.
