Handsome Men's Club

Now that Conan O'Brien has been eliminated from the Late Night race, Jimmy Kimmel can take his throne as the 'King of Late Night'.... It's funny, I remember listening to Jimmy Kimmel on local morning radio as 'Jimmy the Sports Guy'..... In a radio bit in 1997, he pinned a piece of ham from a McDonald's Egg McMuffin to the radio studio with the claim that he was going to eat it one year later.... He ate the piece of ham one year later, and you could hear the crunch over the airwaves....

Anyway, he created another hit video that's even better than the 'I'm F@#$ing Matt Damon' and 'I'm F@#$ing Ben Affleck' videos! Enjoy the 'Handsome Men's Club'!


I don't know why I didn't get my invitation to be in the video. I guess they're still mulling over my application.

The Late Shift

Don't get me wrong, I'm on Team Conan, but YouTube user FiveAlex2009 has posted 26 Jay Leno appearances on 'The Late Show with David Letterman'....

All before their friendship crumbled because Jay Leno and his manager used shady tactics to beat out David Letterman for the 'Tonight Show' host position after Johnny Carson had retired.... And when I say beat out, I mean, having an agent who bullies NBC executives and hiding in closets during executive meetings to gain an upper hand in negotiations.... Have you seen the movie 'The Late Shift'? It's about the battle for the 'Tonight Show' host gig.... Now we need 'The Late Shift 2' to cover NBC's latest debacle between Jay and Conan O'Brien....

Keep in mind, most of the videos include David Letterman asking Jay Leno a question, then Jay proceeding to talk for four to five minutes. But it was interesting to see their dynamic (and Jay 'Elvis' Leno) before the feud.... Click on the photo of Jay and Dave to see the videos....
