Courting Craig Ferguson: The Late Late Show Diaries 10-14-2005
Published October 17, 2005
"So, now we look for a tentacle!" Freakin' brilliant!
This reminded me of Monty Python's Holy Grail's witch argument:
VILLAGER #1: If... she... weighs... the same as a duck... she's made of wood.
BEDEVERE: And therefore?
VILLAGER #2: A witch!
This is so unhealthy, isn't it? I'm showing my inner movie geek. Surely, it's a sign of decompensation, frustration, and wantonness. Or something. And, stop calling me Shirley.
I probably should have taped the show tonight. It's apparent that I'm tired and goofy. But, you started it, you naughty giant tentacle! Yes, I'm casting blame. Just try and stop me. No, really. Come on, try it. I promise to stop if you come over.
Now we're back to the Bacon Brothers. Funny, all I can think of right now is breakfast. Scrambled eggs, crisp bacon, fresh orange juice, and a cuppa. And, that led me to think of Breakfast at Tiffany's. (A mind is a terrible thing to waste, isn't it?) "Peace Dance" was the song that the Bacons sang. Maybe if they'd chosen something else, I'd have paid closer attention. Perhaps the squid song.
This show was a big one for me. I managed to get a friend to watch with me. A friend who was amongst the unconvinced that you, Craig Ferguson, are the best thing to happen to late night TV since Johnny Carson. My friend is now a believer.
I can't wait for the next time we get to spend the evening together, Craiggers. Keep up the good work!
Your cheeky wee monkey and saucy little squidlet,
Joanie
Join the fun, check out The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on CBS, Monday-Friday, 12:30 PM, Pacific. If you can't stay up that late and/or refuse to record the show, you can always catch up on the monologues and skits on the LLS website.
About the author: Joan's fascination and adoration of Craig Ferguson is little more than silly fantasy, with a dash of lust, the likes of which are common amongst single 39 year-old women. She lives many miles safely south of Los Angeles and CBS Studios. She is seriously contemplating entering rehab to work on her Monty Python addiction.
