Though we've already awarded victory in last night's Return of Late Night TV talk-show wars to Conan O'Brien, whose downy Strike Beard simultaneously displayed solidarity with his absent writing staff and offered comfort to millions of fans anxious about how Hollywood's labor unrest affects the Masturbating Bear's ability to release the painful tension in his ursine nether-regions, we ...
The Conan O’Brien beard is a hot topic
amikelife.com 1/3/2008 — So back in November I posted a little blog about Conan O’Brien and linked to a video that was pretty hilarious and showed that him and his staff were all growing “strike” beards in solidarity with the Writer’s Guild. Conan O’Brien’s beard has become a hot topic this week, maybe it’s because he’s returning to late night today (Wednesday) or ...

Even coming back to TV could not get David Letterman and Conan O'Brien to shave their beards. Letterman looks like what Santa Claus looks like after Christmas is done and puts on his day job attire while Conan O'Brien looks like he ...

Whose Strike Beard Is Better? —

The only one I didn't get to was Kimmel, and that's because I was too busy watching the end of Letterman, Leno (btw...Emril has gained so serious lbs.) and of course Conan.

And you saw those paparazzi shots of Conan O’Brien, walking around town like a high-fashion lumberjack, right? If a strike beard can do that for Conan, just imagine what it could do for a piece of ass like JJ Abrams . I know it’s wrong, but strike ...
