- I know ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” is aired from Rockefeller Center, which doesn’t have a lot of elbow room, but that new set sure did look tiny.
- I thought Fallon’s suit really stood out, a very classic gray with a dark blue matted tie, almost like he walked off the ‘Mad Men’ set.
- Conan had a much better opening segment when he took over the reins, and both basically had the same sentimental opening about being a kid and staying up late at night watching Carson. Actually, Fallon didn’t have an opening segment, he just went straight to the monolog that was rather flat, but I needed some excuse to post that Conan video because I liked it so much. But Fallon’s strength is getting people talking via social media and getting celebrities to come out of their shells doing some great bits.
- Kim Kardashian was on the last ‘Tonight’ with Leno in a farewell celebrity ensemble bit and on the first ‘Tonight’ with Fallon in a welcoming celebrity ensemble bit.
- Visually Stunning. That was quite the scene seeing U2 play on top of Rockefeller Center at dusk with the Empire State Building in the background along with the Rutgers band. I was surprised the band played before Will Smith was interviewed. And it was freaking me out how close everyone was to the edge of that roof.
- Fallon’s interview with the band was a bit awkward, but Edge was pretty funny starting off playing “Stairway to Heaven” when asked to play acoustically.
- I also caught Kevin Spacey on Letterman last night and Spacey actually made a Larry Hagman reference. Spacey always does a Johnny Carson impression on Letterman, and he once again delivered last night.
- I saw a news segment on KTVT that AT&T Stadium is getting some huge “AT&T STADIUM” wording put on top of the dome that will light up and heat the roof in case there’s another ice issue, but I can’t find the story.
- I hear the Cowboys and Stars have a frosty relationship (forgive the pun), but I came across an article that the Stars are trying to host a hockey game at AT&T Stadium.
- Today marks one week of the retaining wall project, I actually thought it would be finished by now.
- My preferred card game – hearts.
- Highlights of that woman playing running back for a local indoor football league.
- A mother’s breast milk is different from a boy than a girl, but the article doesn’t mention anything about what happens if the mother has twins with one being male and one female. Wouldn’t it be cool if one breast was specific to each sex?

Fallon started very slow but after giving his sentimental speech he rebooted the show and it was great from that point on. The entire show was solid. The rap dancing bit was funny. The shot of U2 on top of 30Rock was breathtaking. Yes, that studio looks small but it's the same one Johnny started in.
FWIW, almost all of those Disneyland tips apply in Disney World as well, just in case any of your readers are headed east instead of west.
