And somehow doing the Letterman show was the "biggest thing ever" when they did it. It's funny how that works.</p>

<p>how many jokes can he get out of that trip to the furniture store?</p><p>that wasn't bad. i think the leno appearance was better</p>
<p>Generally I don't care for Norton and I thought he came off pretty well. Good work.</p>

I could not get passed how much weight he lost. He is half the size he was on Lucky Louie. The Aids must be really kicking in.

<p>nice set. I wish he had closed with a new joke instead of the one he used on the couch (?) with leno.</p><p> </p><p>Where the fuck were the plugs? </p><p>Dave: "you can catch Jimmy Norton on 92.3 freeFM or on XM Satalite radio"</p><p>how fucking hard is that?</p><p> </p><p>I bet they mention that tomorrow</p>

<p><img height="190" src="http://www.hbo.com/onenightstand/img/252x190/jimnorton02.jpg" width="252" border="0" />Funny stuff. IRON MAN by Paul Shaffer and the World's Most Dangerous Band was a good call. (but WHO made that call? CBS? Norton? AMERICA WANTS TO KNOW! Hoo tipped the band off to Jim's obsession with satanic rock and rollers - <a href="http://www.myspace.com/thecosmiccircus" target="_self"><strong>BLACK SABBATH?</strong></a></p><p>Oh I mean the<a href="http://www.thecosmiccircus.com/" target="_self"> </a><font size="2"><strong><a href="http://www.thecosmiccircus.com/" target="_self">CBS Orchestra</a></strong> .. I guess someone finally figured out that there is nothing really DANGEROUS about Mr. Paul Shaffer other than his 8 inch <strike>cock!</strike></font></p><p><img height="200" src="http://images.zap2it.com/20060103/paulshaffer_lateshow_240_001.jpg" width="240" border="0" /></p><p>Nice set. Looks like a young Don Rickles when he smiles</p>

When I think of Leno, the last thing that comes to mind is "edgy". I know his standup is probably different, but his monologues are embarassing. Conan is where it's at.</p><p>I echo what people say about Jimmy losing wait. AIDS does work.</p><p>Good set by Jimmy. They shafted him on time for a longer set and a promo from Dave.</p>
That was a really strong segment.

<p>PERRYNOID: jimmy had said on o/a that the letterman staff asked him for some favorite songs to walk out to...he told them anything by Sabbath.</p><p>makes sense now why so many guests smile and wave to the band...it must always be a "request". never knew they did it that way.</p>

i'm surprised they let him get away with the furniture store joke. i saw him at the cellar working on that bit earlier this summer so to go from that to national TV... weird. what i liked the best was watching him contain his own laughter at how well the performance was going on. he cracked a few smiles but quickly went back into character.<br />
