Farewell Conan

I don't watch the tonight show, and I don't really care about Conan O'Brien, but, his farewell was heartfelt and so gracious.

"Here is one thing I will leave you with, work hard, be nice, and great things will happen to you. Things never turn out the way you think they are going to, but that is where the opportunity lies."- Conan O'Brien

Ahh... that is nice. He sure got screwed over. I don't care about either of them (Leno or Conan) but it will be interesting to see if there's any backlash for Leno. I never did understand what people see in him. I'm more on Team Letterman and Ferguson. Who am I kidding - I like Chelsea Lately better than all of them.

I agree, S. I never watched Leno or Conan but I am for sure on Team CoCo. He handled himself like a gentleman. And I love that he blew money like a maniac the last few shows. Tom Hanks was on the last show and the band played "Lovely Rita" while he was walking out. It cost NBC 500,000K. Hee hee.
Leno is trying to combat backlash by going on Oprah. Whatever.
Rosie O'Donnell had a great quote about Leno needed to just let Conan have the job. Can't remember the exact wording.

I heart Chelsea too. And she is DAMN funny live. Girl showed up in leggings, a tshirt and a scrunchy. No lie.
