  Anyone see the episode (fairly recent, I think) when Dave is getting some
cooking tips from this woman and she points to a dozen eggs on the table
and asks dave how he can tell which eggs are hard boiled and which ones
aren't?  He immediately responds,  "Oh, I know just how to do this... You 
toss one to Morty!"  With that, he immediately lobs one at Morty before he
even has a chance to react.  Plllffckkkkttt!!   It was raw.   It looked
so unrehearsed, so completely off the cuff, -- and Morty was laughing as 
he was wiping the egg off his face,   I laughed like I never have on this
show before.    

We'll really miss something if this goes away.

Yup.  Dave kept telling people to "sit down and shut up."  I don't
remeber the medallion around his neck, but that show was probably the

Due to threat of legal action from Dancing Waters, Inc. in Los Angeles (I
believe).  My favorite part of the whole affair was when in repeats, whenever 
Dave mentioned his wonderful fountain of love, a disclaimer along the lines
of "not associated with Dancing Waters, Inc." would appear onscreen.

This is the thing I hate most about Dave's show, this idea that only a few
members of a band can appear, and Paul's band backs up.  I don't think it's
a question of being too cheap to pay appearance fees for each bandmember
(I'm sure any band would split a flat rate to get on the show); the show
has a decent budget.  I'd like to thnk it isn't Paul's ego trip of thinking
his band is as good as anyone else out there (they're really a glorified
Bar Mitzvah band).   I'll bet anything that Letterman changes this when
he changes the show at the end of his contract.  

>P.S. I can't stand Will Lee either, don't know why, just can't.  So there!

Me too.  He seems to be willing to do anything to get himself onscreen.
Talk about yer hams.  And while he can read charts well, I just don't think
he's a very good musician.  Probably doesn't hurt that Daddy's a big deal

Is it just me, or did those women look like they couldn't actually

I suspect the same was happening on other instruments, but I'm really

I wonder...someone on Dave's staff must have said...'Hey,

You are correct sir!  That's exactly how they got they're name.  They're
logo (I guess that's what you call it) is two skeleton hands coming together
forming the square.  The group is named for the connotation.

As far as L7 (the group) is concerned, their song was weak.  This is the
hardest group of girls I have ever seen live.  I got roped into seeing them,
as was very pleasantly surprised.  An all girl heavy metal band?  Oh no!  Not
another Vixen?!  WRONG.  This was a fantastic show and yes, they can play.
I bought their latest CD after seeing them, and that's kind of lacking, but
not a total disappointment.  BTW, what they played was "Wake Up Dead".

    Paul's loose lips were best described by Lorraine Newman (formerly of
 Sat.Nt.Live.  During a bit about Mideval Musicians, Paul was playing a
 'band' leader.  The whole group was constantly using a substitute word 
 for fuck, perhaps 'fargin'...i forget.  Anyway Lorraine tells that on
 live TV paul let slip with 'Fuckin'.  She said the whole offset cast froze
 while staring at the censor, who was stricken...he had missed bleeping
 it and it had gone past.  Lorraine said nothing was ever heard of it
 but Paul gets the credit for letting fly.
