The Letterman Beard: Outtahere
What happens when you have a writers strike and you need to fill an hour's worth of late night time?
For one thing, you grow a beard over the preceding nine weeks and then have a pair of barbers come on the air and shave it off; takes about seven or eight minutes of airtime, and the attention is priceless. (Though, really, watching someone getting shaved - even Letterman - is about as exciting as watching them comb their hair; thrills!) Last night, the beard finally went.
Dave did this about twenty years ago too - the opening gag of Hal Gurnee's classic "Network Time Killers" routines that helped fill hours of program time while the writers walked the streets below. Hal also got a tailor to measure Dave for a suit. I wonder if that's next? (Thanks to Mangoface247 for this clip).

Greeting. I wrote myself a check for ten million dollars for acting services rendered and dated it Thanksgiving 1995. I put it in my wallet and it deteriorated. And then, just before Thanksgiving 1995, I found out I was going to make ten million dollars for Dumb & Dumber. I put that check in the casket with my father because it was our dream together. Help me! Help to find sites on the: Sniper paintball guns for sale. I found only this - cheap tactical paintball guns. The tippmann is the world first propane powered paintball gun. Stories from the dickinsonian, the student newspaper of dickinson college, a nationally recognized and highly not limited to includes paintball guns. Thanks for the help :cool:, Hastings from Kiribati.
