I really like Conan O’Brien and enjoy his work a lot, so I’m going to take his side on the whole Jay Leno / NBC / Conan debacle. It’s a shame that his chance at the Tonight Show didn’t last too long.

If you’re not in a reading mood, watch Letterman try and explain this through his stream of consciousness:

I’m not too worried about Conan though – he’s a real talent and wherever he decides to go, I’m sure he’ll do well.

Although the the result is a beautiful face indeed, it seems like the technology behind it kind of takes the “average” of the features between the beautiful celebrities, resulting in a not-so-memorable nor striking personality.

Hot or not? You decide.

i’ve always have a nagging feeling that this is the case… and now, what do you know:

According to the National Domestic Violence hotline, these are some signs that you may be in an emotionally or physically abusive relationship.

Does your partner:

* Look at you or act in ways that scare you?

Check.

* Control what you do, who you see or talk to or where you go?

“Stay away from the werewolves. I love you.”

* Make all of the decisions?

Check.

* Act like the abuse is no big deal, it’s your fault, or even deny doing it?

“If I wasn’t so attracted to you, I wouldn’t have to break up with you.”

* Threaten to commit suicide?

“I just can’t live without you. In fact, I’ll run to Italy and try suicide by vampire if anything happens to you.”

* Threaten to kill you?

On their first date.

These are some more signs of an abusive relationship.

Has your partner…

* Tried to isolate you from family or friends.

Bella doesn’t have time for anyone else!

* Damaged property when angry (thrown objects, punched walls, kicked doors, etc.).

Check.

* Pushed, slapped, bitten, kicked or choked you.

Does tossing her through a glass table count?

* Abandoned you in a dangerous or unfamiliar place.

“We’re breaking up. And I’m leaving you in the forest.”

* Scared you by driving recklessly.

Check.

* Forced you to leave your home.

She had to run away with him to flee from the other vampires in the first movie, and she had to drop everything and run to Italy in the second.

* Prevented you from calling police or seeking medical attention.

Check. Even in the hospital, nothing is a big deal.

* Views women as objects and believes in rigid gender roles.

Well, they are Mormon… (I know, I know, cheap shot.)

* Accuses you of cheating or is often jealous of your outside relationships.

Check, wolf-boy.

Now I’m pissed. According to the NDVH, “If you answered ‘yes’ to even one of these questions, you may be in an abusive relationship.” This list is fifteen.
