Conan gets an award — 13 Comments

  2. For once — something negative to go with the positive. Namely, I love the First Lady’s coat, but its line is not flattering to her. What was she thinking!

    When V.P. Pence is done with Conan, I wants him! (Conan, that is. Quoting Kai, +4,000,000. 😀 )

  3. Coat? What coat? It’s the legs and, egads, the shoes!

    And in the category of “thinking alike” my headline for the same tweet on my page is “At last we know the answer to ‘Who’s a good boy?’ .”

  7. Trump gets it!

    Our DOGS are better than “Muslim” terrorists. Yes, our DOGS; because in Muslim culture they fear dogs more than other cultures fear dogs.

    I would not be surprised if Trump gets that telling them that our dogs are better than them is another slap to the terrorists.

  8. Conan: Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the women!

  9. Heh.

    Yesterday I asked a seventeen year old whether he’d seen Conan the Barbarian? No, he said.

    Well have you happened to see the photo of Arnold dangling in between Wilt the Stilt and Andre the Giant? Who is Wilt the Stilt?, he asks.

    Oh, uh, so he’s the only professional basketball player to have ever scored 100 pts in a single game. His eyes widen, whaaaat? he says, some guy scored 100 pts in one game? Yeah, I said, and he averaged over 50 per game for the entire season. You’re lying to me, he says. That can’t happen.

    Not only can that happen, he’s the only player to average over 30 pts and 20 rebounds for a season, and he did it 7 times. Played 13 years and never fouled out.

    Oh, and kid, do yourself a favor: go rent the movie The Princess Bride and watch it. Then go for Conan the Barbarian.

  10. sdferr,

    Excellent movies! Its too bad that the Wilt Chamberlain Conan movie was nowhere near as good as the first one.

  11. Melania’s coat looks fine for being with a dog – comfy, warm, ready to hide spots of dirt or slobber or paw scratches.

    I understood the dog was female, but it seems I was mis-informed:
    He is a male Belgian Malinois and was named after Conan O’Brien due to his shaggy hair. Conan took part in the Barisha raid in Syria, which resulted in the death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, Wikki.

    I saw that Wilt was able to jump from behind the free throw line and dunk the ball — so they changed the rules to disallow that. College later changed rules to stop then-Lew Alcindor from dominating with dunking, too. (Kareem Abdul Jabbar)
    Wilt only won 2 NBA championships, often losing to the Bill Russell led Boston Celtics. Was looking up first defenestration (1618 or 1419), for the prior thread on Hong Kong “suicides”.

  13. The problem is not with the fabric of the coat (as I said, I like it a lot) but with the line. This could have easily been fixed by wearing the coat belted, or even half-belted: the belt passes between the coat and the body at the back, then appears through slits at the sides and tied closely in the front. The fabric would still hide slobber.

    As it is, it looks like a normal coat that the owners use to camouflage whatever’s underneath, or when grabbing something to wear to the grocery store.

    But NOTE: That might be partly a matter of camera angle. Indeed, that whole shot might have been made and chosen in order to “show” that the President and First Lady don’t really like or trust Conan.

    However, far be it from me to speculate about possible ulterior motives among the Press.
