Halle Berry; Bill Hader; and a Spring Snake Symphony. PLUS: Pamela Anderson’s New Marriage; a Museum Theft; Great Moments in Presidential Speeches; a Cameraman with Friends; and Late Show Fun Facts.
“. . . . and now, a man who is the new oil . . . David Letterman!
ACT 1
Dave billboards the night’s show; “ . . . and tonight on the program, the Spring Snake Symphony. No reaction from the audience. Dave says, “Maybe you didn’t hear me . . . .” I laughed hard at that.
Dave opens a few peanut cans of the spring-loaded snakes inside, showing just how hilarious they can be. You open up what looks to be a can of plain old peanuts, but actually a spring-loaded snake is inside. Take off the top and a snake comes springing out. Oh, the fun.
Last weekend, Pamela Anderson got married for the third time, and there’s been no shortage of well-wishers. Dave found this message particularly heart-warming. Announce: “On Saturday, Pamela Anderson married Rick Salomon at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas. The bride was previously married to Tommy Lee and Kid Rock, while the groom is best known for his sex tape with Paris Hilton. So we at the Mirage would like to announce that the hotel will be quarantined until the premises can be fully disinfected.
Congratulations, Pam and Rick, from all your friends in Las Vegas.”
Dave grabs a can of salted mixed nuts from behind the desk. He opens the can and a spring snake jumps out of the can. Now . . . . NOW do you see the excitement that’s in store?
Dave asks if we could go back for another look at Pamela Anderson. Uh huh. Thank you for that request, Dave. Dave says “There wasn’t that much work done on Mt. Rushmore.”
A priceless Monet painting in a Paris museum was damaged when an intruder bashed a hole in the middle. The museum is appealing for the public’s help. Announce: “The Orsay Museum in Paris wishes to bring to justice the culprit who damaged the precious Claude Monet impressionist masterpiece ‘Le Pont d’Argenteuil.’
Impressionism experts have released this sketch of the suspect.”
(cut to an impressionist-style painting of the perp which is so colorful and non-realistic that it makes the wanted man unrecognizable.)
“Please contact authorities immediately if you see him. Merci, from the Orsay Museum.”
Dave notices something odd behind the camera. He calls out to camera operator Dave Dorsett: “Excuse me, Dave Dorsett. What are you doing? Who are those people?”
Dorsett is with three lovely looking women. DORSETT: “Dave, in honor of Columbus Day, I found three ladies named Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria. DAVE: “Dave, Columbus Day was four days ago.” DORSETT: “I booked them for the whole week.”
GREAT MOMENTS IN PRESIDENTIAL SPEECHES
Bush: “Are you from Afghanistan?!”
ACT 2 LATE SHOW FUN FACTS – Dave read a list of fun facts he received from his buddy Gary Sherman from Washington’s Federal Bureau of Miscellaneous Information.
Some day you’ll understand.
ACT 3
We are just about ready for the Spring Snake Symphony. Dave opens up one of the peanut cans . . . and inside are actual peanuts. Dave takes out a handful and pops ‘em into his mouth. He shuffles a handful of peanuts in this hand. He says it’s one of life’s automatic responses. Put some peanuts in your hand and you’ll immediately start doing this. He shakes his hands full of peanuts. But the way Dave shook his hand looked like he was doing something else; something naughty teens will do with their fisted hand when showing disgust to another. And then I realized that Dave didn’t say “peanuts”; he said “nuts.” And then I wondered if he tried to slip a blue joke by us. I’ve heard him say and do this many times before on the show but was this the first time I realized what he was doing? Dave said, “Put some nuts in your hand you and you can’t help but go like this . . . .” and he shakes his hand in this questionable manner. Hmmmm. Very clever. Very sly.
THE SPRING SNAKE SYMPHONY – with Eric Buss. Eric Buss’s performance is accompanied by Johann Strauss’s “The Blue Danube.” He will be using 375 spring snakes. The music begins, and so does Eric Buss. If nothing else, we now know the name that goes with the music. It’s “The Blue Danube” by Johann Strauss.
Dave called it “a crowd pleaser, very satisfying.”
ACT 4 TOP TEN: SIGNS YOU’RE NOT GOING TO WIN A NOBEL PRIZE #2. You’re known for invading Iraq without an exit strategy.
HALLE BERRY
Ahh, the pregnant Halle Berry. She’s 5 months along. Any morning sickness? Halle said she didn’t have morning sickness, it was more like “all-day sickness.” Boy or girl? Halle doesn’t know, and doesn’t want to know. She did however get an ultrasound done and the doctor says the baby looks surprisingly like Dave. Hooo boy, if that’s the case, I really hope it’s a boy.
The baby’s dad is a French-Canadian model she met on a Versace shoot two years ago. They’ve been together ever since. And as a French-Canadian, he wants the baby to grow up knowing French. Halle thinks it’s only right that she too learn French, and so there are post-it note stickers all over the house identifying objects by their French name.
Halle’s heard that a baby can start learning 18 weeks after conception and her friends have given her a new baby product . . . imagine that, a new baby product . . . . which you can strap to your belly which plays sounds for your baby to hear an hour in the morning and an hour at night. It’s supposed to make the baby smarter and less colic-y.
(In fact, it was reported that a baby right out of the womb spoke the words, “Would you turn that damn thing off!”)
Halle’s mom was a nurse and her advice is not to be too obsessed. Mothers have been given birth forever; there’s no need to obsess over it. When Halle was born, there were no ultrasounds. Halle’s mom admitted to drinking and smoking all through her pregnancy and Halle turned out normal. Obviously, you shouldn’t smoke or drink while pregnant, but you shouldn’t over worry either.
In Halle’s new film, Things We Lost In The Fire, she plays a wife and mother of two kids whose husband dies in a random incident of street crime. Her deceased husband’s best friend moves in, an ex-lawyer turned troubled addict. It opens October 19th.
ACT 5: It’s the Spring Snake Symphony . . . in reverse. All the spring-loaded snakes fly back into their peanut cans.
ACT 6 WILL IT FLOAT?
Tonight’s item: Alan Kalter, TV’s Bobby Remco, announces tonight’s Will It Float item is a battery-powered chain saw.
Dave is disappointed in the item, since it obviously will sink. It’s a piece of machinery, what else will it do? Of course it’ll sink. Who picks these items? Bobby Remco says, “I do.”
The "Will It Float?" models drop the battery-powered chain saw into the Will It Float tank and it . . . . SINKS!
Dave wonders what we will use next week: a boulder? A cinder block? I forget, but it was something like that.
Hmm, how about a pumice rock?
ACT 7 BILL HADER
From “Saturday Night Live” – seen Saturday nights. It’s done LIVE.
You may also know Bill from the summer hit film, Superbad. He played an unorthodox cop. Some would say he was making a mockery of the police. Has this caused him any trouble with real police officers? Bill says he was walking on the Lower East Side of Manhattan last week and he was called over by some cops: “You, c’mere! We’re not mad at you . . . c’mere.” They talked about a scene where Bill’s cop character told a naked nerd that he did the same stuff the nerd had done: drinking, drugging, smoking . . . the real cops said they wished they could say that to every knucklehead they have to arrest.
Bill grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma – a land so flat you can see your dog running away for three days. When people hear he is from Tulsa, Oklahoma, they don’t know what to make of it. They always think it is extremely rural. They’ll wonder if he had television growing up or if he rode a horse to school.
So how does a kid from Tulsa end up on “Saturday Night Live.” Bill had been performing with a comedy troupe in L.A. and was seen by Megan Mullally. She put in a word to Lorne Michael, unbeknownst to Bill. Out of the blue, Bill got a call to come in and audition. He had no idea what the audition would entail, but had heard it often calls for some impressions. Bill did Vincent Price doing a rap song. About Vincent Price, Lorne Michael only asked “Bill . . . why now?”
“Saturday Night Live” – Saturday’s guests: Host Jon Bon Jovi; musical guest – Foo Fighters.
And that was our show for Friday October 12, 2007.
The spring snake in a can of mixed nuts was invented in 1915 by Samuel Sorenson Adams. Other S.S. Adams’ inventions include the Cachoo Sneezing Powder, the Dribble Glass, the Joy Buzzer, and the bug in the ice cube. Wow. I would have liked to have known this guy.
My bug in the ice cube story: I bought a “bug in an ice cube” gag many years ago. I was just out of college and a member of the Hillcrest Volunteer Fire Department. On this night, I attended the Hillcrest Volunteer Firemen’s Formal Dinner. I showed off my ice cube to a few fellow firemen. We soon found ourselves chatting with a future Chief. When he wasn’t looking, I slipped the “bug in an ice cube” into his drink. He took a sip from his vodka tonic. He took another sip. A bunch of us tried our best to suppress our laughter whenever he took a sip. And then . . . as he neared the bottom of his drink, his eyes widened in shock. “What the . . .!” he cried. He pushed past us in anger and disgust. He was heading to the bar, smoke coming out of his ears. He was thinking that if he got a bug in his ice cube, somebody else might too, and the night was filled with local politicians and important town officials. He realized this could lead to great embarrassment to the Department. My childish delight turned to concern. I thought this might turn out bad. I followed him to the bar, just in case the confrontation got out of hand. My comrades followed. The future Chief gets to the bartender and demands an explanation for the filth he has found in his ice cube. The bartender, calm as could be, snaps back at him, “Hey, A-Hole, it’s a phony ice cube. Somebody put it in your drink as a joke.” The future Chief reaches into his drink and takes out the ice cube. He turns around to find 6 of us laughing up a storm. For two seconds he wanted to kill us. And then he laughed and couldn’t wait to do it to someone else.
My Joy Buzzer story: Many many years ago my friends and I were invited to a costume party. We were just-out-of-college age. We knew one of the guys who lived in the house of the party. He was a good guy. We were familiar with the other habitants. They were full of themselves, snobbish, and too cool for the likes of us. So we went. I forgot what my friend Matt was dressed as but it included a joy buzzer. When we arrived we pretended to be happy to see the snobbish bunch. My friend Matty shook the hand with one of the hosts. The host got a shock from the joy buzzer. We howled with laughter. The host was livid. This only made us laugh longer and louder. Of course, the joy buzzer was the hit of the party amongst the 5 of us. The rest of the party hated us and wanted us to leave. This only made us laugh longer and louder. It was 4 hours of giggling like little kids. We proceeded to go out of our way to have the best of times, much to the chagrin of the hosts. Our immaturity in light of their superiority was some of the most continuous fun I ever had.

Rodrigo De Triana
Rodrigo de Triana (born 1469 in Sevilla, Spain) was a Spanish sailor. Born as Juan Rodrigo Bermejo, Triana was the son of hidalgo and potter Vicente Bermejo and Sereni Betancour. His father may have been murdered during the Spanish Inquisition.
On October 12, 1492, while in the crow's nest of Christopher Columbus's ship La Pinta, he sighted land of the Americas. He was the first European since the Vikings known to have seen America.
After spotting America at approximately two o'clock in the morning, he is reported to have shouted "Tierra! Tierra!" (“Land! Land!”) Columbus claims in his journal that he saw "light" at 10PM the previous day, "but it was so indistinct that he did not dare to affirm it was land."
Every October 12th takes me back to the year 2000. October 12th is the traditional Columbus Day, celebrated on that date before the “we gotta always have a 3-day weekend” crept in to our lives. So why does October 12th make me think of the year 2000? Because in 2000, October 12th, the traditional Columbus Day, was Late Show #1492.
My last word on Joe Torre and the Yankees. I say sign him for two more years and keep him for the final year of Yankee Stadium. If you want to get rid of him next year and start fresh at the new Yankee Stadium, fine. I don’t want to start anew in the Stadium’s goodbye year.
