I'm watching Leno tonight and the subject is "teenage wasteland".

This 16 y/o just now sucked a long noodle up each nostil of his nose and it came out his mouth.... it was really funny! What a talent!

Now this other 16 y/o can spit way up in the air and catch it in his mouth. Hahahahahaha

And who sez kids now a days have no talent!?

This segment was really funny!

Sounds gross to me.

In fact it makes me long for the days of Mr. Carson.

I saw that segment. It was funny and gross, but I liked it. I also liked Kip and Kim at Hoover Dam.

That Hoover seg was funny too.

Scene 1 downstream location: "Why is the wall so high and the water is so low?"

Scene 2 dam top location looking north: "Oh, Ummmm...nevermind."

And the bit about the Nevada/Arizona time line was hilarious. "If it's 11 in Nevada, then it's 10 in Arizona. Standing on the line it must be 10:30".

There sure are some really dumb people.... duh.

== Letterman's been doing this kind of thing for 20 years. It's called "Stupid Human Tricks." Leno is, as usual, less than imaginative. [flame suit on]

I watched Leno last night. I usually only watch the monologue and occasionally the bit he does after the first commercial break (especially when it's headlines, which is BY FAR the best thing on Leno). I never watch Leno with guests because the conversation is boring and all he does is kiss ass. I assumed "Teenage Wasteland" was a musical band (that's what it sounds like) so I didn't watch. If I knew what it was I probably wouldn't watch anyway, as I'm not too much into gross-out humor. Leno himself is pretty annoying and snively, but his monologue is longue and I like that.

Yeah, but Letterman is BORING and sooo full of himself and of shit his eyes are probably brown too. He should be out to pasture like Carson.

I agree Joe, the best part is the Headlines....

The monologue, the bit, then change the channel. [beer]

I remember when Colin Quinn was doing Weekend Update on SNL, they had a funny joke about Leno. I forgot how it went, but I think it was with someone in the audience threw something at the stage, and Quinn said "that wasn't the only thing that could be seen coming from miles away on the show"

Frankly, I don't find anything on the Leno, Letterman or Kimmel shows worth staying up to see including the hosts. The last entertaining host really was Carson. Of course, I've been around long enough to have enjoyed Steve Allen (no relation).
