Going Down in a Bleyz of Glory!
Oh man. So, I’ve been talking about starting up this weekly web show with Hardy and some other people - and, like I’ve mentioned previously, it’s not gonna be that big of a deal. More than anything else, it’s just something fun to do to keep busy while we’re unemployed. A reason to wear pants. You all know what I’m talking about, right? All you beautiful pantswearers out there.
Well, TMZ heard about this “Web Show” idea, and they said that they wanted to do a story on it. Say it with me, kids: *GULP*. This kind of attention makes me nervous for a couple of reasons:
1. The very last thing I want to do is to start any crazy rumors or cause trouble by making headlines like REBEL CONAN STAFFERS START UP A SHOW IN HIS ABSENCE, etc etc. The people at TMZ are extremely nice folks, but we all know that the internet can sometimes be a giant game of telephone: Someone reads something and gets the wrong idea and then there’s major trouble and everything’s all fucked up just because I wanted to do something stupid every week that would get me into some pants and out of the house.
2. If there’s like a whole lot of attention on this “Web Show”, then what I have planned is invariably going to let everybody down! I mean, I’m brilliant and handsome and talented and handsome and good looking and extremely handsome, but I wasn’t planning on really doing a huge big production for this show. It’s more of an exercise in being a moron. If there’s gonna be actual people watching it, then they’re going to be disappointed… Unless they want to watch a show called “Non Stop Farting For Ten Minutes with Aaron Bleyaert”. So let me go on the record by saying this: The web show is not, and will not, be affiliated with our show, Conan, or anything else. It is just for me and my friends to have fun with. That’s it! I hope you’ll watch, but I don’t want people to get the wrong idea. Can you dig it? I knew you could, baby. I knew… You could. ;)
Now… Onto the meat of today’s post! I’m still here in the office, and since I can’t update the Tonight Show site any more, it hit me that there are a bunch of wall signatures that you guys never saw and that I’ll never be able to put on the site… So I took some pics of a few. Ready? Let’s go!
Carl Reiner:
Gary Oldman:
Quentin Tarantino:
Joel McHale:
Joel brings up a good point: What will happen to The Wall? There’s rumor that it’ll stay here; there’s rumor that the walls will be cut out and removed; there’s even a rumor that they’ll sort of peel the paper part of the wall off (can they even do that?) and reapply it onto some sort of backing for safekeeping! In truth, no one knows what’ll happen to it… But I really hope that it doesn’t just stay here and get painted over - for no other reason than we’d lose all three of Norm MacDonald’s hilarious signatures:
Oh, Norm. You’re the best.
