Letterman 3/17 -- What was the guy doing with the tissues?

At the beginning of the Late Show, some guy was doing something with tissues in the aisle. It threw Dave off and he asked if they should just restart the show. The producer said they'd edit it out. Well, Dave kept mentioning it so they didn't edit it out or nothing he said for the rest of the show would make sense.

Anyway, I didn't catch what the guy was doing. He told Dave and Dave repeated it, but I wasn't paying attention.

Can anyone inform me? I don't feel like waiting for tomorrow's Wahoo Gazette.

Forget tissue guy. What the hell is wrong with Courtney Love?

This interview took place just after this.

Courtney is either 1) back on hard drugs, or 2) really desparate for attention these days. Either way, she needs help. She's got talent but is too busy acting nutty these days to show it.

She's flashed Dave about 3 times already .

Letterman said to her, "I'm so glad I had a son."

I didn't think it was drugs, she just really has self esteem issues, on the one hand, she's right, no one says the kinds of things she says on talk shows, but, just the same, there was nothing she said anyone really wanted to hear.

Love is just a really really sad case of "has been" star desparately begging for attention. Her brain and body are growing disproportionally, with an adult body acting as teenager.

What was surprising is that not only did Dave agree to have her on the show, she was the only guest for the show. What a horrible decision. This show gotta be the worst show ever.

Yeah, Courtney gives Love a bad name.

Quite a downer from Tuesday's "Trump or Monkey" contestant that was, as Letterman would say, "cuter than homemade shoes".

She admits to being on Oxycotine (sp?), and as a admitted heroin addict I don't see how she could take it without abusing it. It makes me wonder what kind of doctor would perscribe it to her.

Please tell me she no longer has custody of her daughter... as if there was actually any faith to be had in the family court system.

these days?

The only self-improvement that Courtney Love has ever accomplished was by paying a plastic surgeon. She's a serious whack-job. I'm surprised Kurt Cobain is the only dead man left in her wake.

Oh, come on. That show was great! Dave is at his best when the guest is flaky like that. It was great when she wouldn't let him go to commercial without asking her another question, and he asked, "What do you weigh?" That shut her up.

Oh, and she got arrested after the show.

Just watched the show from last night. Looked to me like Dave had lipstick on his cheek after being escorted out by the "Will it Float" models. Is that what the tissue-guy thing was all about?

Well, in the last few years she has done some semi-coherent interviews, so I thought she was fairly clean and sober. Now I think she's back in Anna Nicole territory. I really wonder if it's just prescription drugs they're both abusing. And both have kids, which is the saddest thing.

This sounds like it was the best show ever.

She was a real nutcase on the show. How was her song? I fell asleep during the end. Damn couch.



I did wake up in time to see Dave kiss both of her hands. He usually only seems to kiss the women he really finds attractive. Hmmm.

When Dave first walked out, he was escorted by the two models. One kissed his cheek and he had some lipstick on it. The guy was trying to get him the tissues to clean it off.

Dave said "if I get lucky enough to get some lipstick on me, I am leaving it on."

Courtney was like watching a 20 minute slow-motion train wreck. There was a few times, I swear I could have shut my eyes, and she sounded just like Rupert from Survivor.

I liked her musical performance.

Dave did have someone else scheduled on the show, but ran out of time.

I liked the end where he said the other guest wisely left the building.
