I think we're going to be seeing more hybrid cars. The Prius is known as a hybrid because it can run on either electricity or the smugness of the owner.

Conan: Conan O'Brien

In a recent poll, California was voted the least popular state in the U.S. But don't worry, we are still the most popular state in Mexico.

The actor who won Best Actor speaks no English and says he loves America. And I'm thinking: "Whoa! We might have a new governor for California!"

 
Live: Jimmy Kimmel

There's an event being held in New York over the weekend by a group that's working to get yoga as an Olympic sport. NBC is pulling out all the stops to get us to not watch the Olympics, aren't they? If football isn't an Olympic sport, why would they include the thing my mom does on Tuesday mornings?!
