since i moved to the US, back in 2001
i stayed late to see what Conan O'Brien was babbling about
i learned 'funny' English and to laugh with him very late at night
Conan was one of those symbols from New York City for me
and then they moved him to Los Angeles to do the Tonight Show
i was somehow sad 'cause i relate Conan with NYC
but it was OK, after all i don't care for Jay Leno
nor for any other late shows or talk shows anyway...
i am a PBS viewer, and a Turner Classics Movies fan
with some dose of Law & Order SVU now & then
and other silly stuff
(hey!! nobody is perfect!)
but from late night TV i only cared
for this quirky skinny tall red-haired man
who used to write for The Simpsons
and now... after getting him out of NYC
they are bringing back fat simpleton Leno
to the Tonight Show
and leaving Conan with plenty of money
but without a TV show...
am gonna miss Conan!!!
and his great irreverent sense of humor
tomorrow is his last show
TV was bad,
it just got worse...

Couldn't watch it :( And I want to see that Freebird rendition with Will Farrell...
I really don't care for that kind of entertainment, especially the gringo smartass format ala Johhny Carson/David Letterman (whom I deeply despise), and precisely that is what I like about Jimmy Kimmel: his irreverent mockery about everything those entertainers and their shows are. Turn to Jimmy Kimmel, he's the best!

Hopefully people would put that much effort and attention to where it is needed. I don't like gringo-media.
Oh! BTW Bere bere bere, I love your CD! Just barked back to Mister Wofo-wifi and mentioned there how much I liked the way the sounds were translated/interpreted to graphics. Very clean, simple yet modern and bold. It certainly has character. Beautiful work! I told him you two should work putting a video together: his sounds and your images, I'm totally positive they would match seamlessly! Again, congratulations BereWeber musixdesignermistress!

so glad you trust me ;) and trust me, i am right! heh heh
dear Ground Control, yeah!! that' was funny, and yeah i've seen Kimmel now & then before... and like you, i don't really like those shows too much, and i have never really followed one, but with Conan, whenever i tuned in for him, he made me laugh! i am not an avid follower but amongst all the crappy late show, his was the only sort of good one
ahhh and sooo nice you got the Perro's album!! to confess i kept the graphics to a minimum and rather simple 'cause i was afraid how they would print!!! i was more worried about the font sizes being readable and the photos having accurate colors than getting too baroque with the design, i feel it came out rather simple looking but at least we have no "huge" mistakes, i'd change somethings if possible, but not any more... heh heh, hey!! but for the next Perro album, huh??
and i can't wait to get YOUR album!! and to see the graphics of it, 'cause i know your style and i love it! you are still the best graphic designer i know alive, and darn good drummer too, so get to work heh heh
hugs and glad you liked it!
herr Thilolilito, i will send you a CD too all the way to Germany as soon as i can!
Oh, Bere, i just typed you this long comment about Conan, then I tried to "preview" it for typos, and it bloody disappeared! >:[ It's too long to re-type, so I'll just have to tell you next time I see you. :-)
