Here’s the deal: producer of a late-night show had been reading the MMP and decides that *YOU *will be a guest to talk to Jimmy or Dave or Conan or whatever host. One of the day-time talk shows is OK, too, if your fantasy prefers.
So, who will it be and why were you chosen? What will you talk about? What is your claim to fame?
I figure for me it’s a slam-dunk. I’ll be a guest on the new Stephen Colbert show when he takes over for Letterman. Because I’m nice, dammit! I figure Colbert needs to distance himself from the right-wing talking head he played on Comedy Central. What better way to do that than to chat with a nice, middle-of-the-road, non-controversial sweetie like me?
Heck, because I’m nice, I’ll even let you time-travel to chat with a host who’s no longer on the air (or alive, even!)
First! Now that the juvenilities are out of the way I shall post.
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffienatin’ YAWN 'Tis 45 Amurrkin with a predicted high of 63 and rain for the day. Looks like kind of a rainy week all around. Oh well, 'tis Winter and Winter in south Jawja means rain.
I think I’d like to be a guest on toe old Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and Ed McMahon because it was a lot funnier and sillier then and I like to be funny and silly. I figure that’d be enough to qualify me as a guest.
Thanks MOOOOOOM for startin’ us off today.
Ok, that’s all I got. I need more caffeine and rumbly tummy wants sustenance. Then, alas and alack, 'tis Moanday so irk purtification must commence. Le sigh.

When I was in junior high/high school, and I was still absolutely positive I was destined to become a Broadway Diva, I would imagine myself, as an adult, on the Merv Griffin show, singing something from my new Tony winning musical, and being presented with a surprise guest - my HS boyfriend with whom I’d lost touch.
Nowadays, I’d like to be on The Daily Show, notable for having written a book about something awesome (no idea what).
eta Bobbio - what does the S in SWAG stand for?
Blurf. Migraine. I’d like to go back to bed but work won’t get any less worklike if I take the day off. Plus I have meetings. Good thing I can telecommute.
I’d be on The Daily Show because of my passion for single-payer healthcare. I’m a bit of a wonk about it.
The Daily Show would be my second choice… oh who am I kidding - Jon’s my first choice! But since I’m so nice, dammit, I felt obligated to help out Colbert launch his new show.
I would be on the Johnny Carson Show, along with Don Rickles and Dean Martin. I’m not funny but they are/were, so people would assume funny by association. My claim to fame is that (shamelessly stealing from Katharine Hepburn) “stone sober I find myself perfectly fascinating.” Plus I know a lot of useless information.Rosie, you can go across the hall to Kramer’s apartment where he has assembled the set of the Merv Griffin show that he found in the dumpster.
Shark-a-pult expert here. You should put your mattress on a catapult (tied to the alarm clock). There’s a large motivation not to oversleep lest you become intimately familiar with the far wall. :eek:
Fallon or Stewart, though with going back could add Leno or Ferguson to the list. I definitely have some cool topics I could talk about, but I think I’d pass, I’d rather sit in the control room, more my style. However, Mooommm, I’d like to point out that you didn’t answer your own question; what are you going to talk about?
This Firday is pay day. One would think everybody would know this and get their dang time in to get paid. Nope. I get phone calls asking if this is payday week. This in spite of the fact that I sent out brand spankin’ new color coded payroll calendars on January second to each and every person.
StickyBuns yay for no skool! Try not to get in too much trouble, ok?
All you Sharkapult experts out there: did you see the advertisement this weekend involving the Piranha Apocalypse? It featured a supercell thunderstorm raining the notorious cattle eating fish everywhere. Just a suggestion if you want to go all WMD.
I suggest you start with ISIS.
It was a Vonage advert. Let your own fingers do the Googling…
It should be Swampbear. If its me you will need to invent a time machine because I will not bother for anyone less that Carson or Steve Allen. And the whole time travel thing would make for enough of a reason and something to talk about.
