Writerless Conan on Larry King: He Is Old
My writers are on strike, so this monologue is cobbled together from Dixie riddle cups, fortune cookies and old Sanford & Son dialogue. If anyone has a joke, I'm paying cash, so meet me in the alley.
That's Conan O'Brien, finding comic gold -- well, comic bronze, anyway -- in the Writers Guild strike. O'Brien was the emcee for last night's "Stand Up For Heroes" concert, benefiting the Bob Woodruff Family Fund, which helps injured veterans, especially those with traumatic brain injuries like the one Woodruff suffered while covering the Iraq War as ABC's anchor.
More Conan:
Bob's not the first veteran to be injured covering a war. True story: Larry King was wounded covering the War of 1812. He took a musket ball in the left suspender strap.
