no he's not appearing but this is a funny story.
on conan o'brian right now, some comedian came on and was talking about barrack obama. and the guy didn't knwo his name so they called "SABU". and it wouldn't had been as funny if they didn't keep saying-SABU SABU SABU SABU SABU.
apprently they thought he was an actor in the 20's

You weren't paying much attention. It was his mother who didn't know Obama's name, and said "What's that guys name... Sabu?" and the comedian guy knew his mom was talking about Obama right away.
And the "he was an actor in the 20s" they were referring to was probably Sabu Dastagir, who was an actor, but in the 30s-60s.

Sabu would be an awesome character on Conan's show. They could do a "Day In The Life With Sabu" sketch, where, he does regular stuff, then puts his mailman through a table.

Did Cena and Frankenstein have a contest to see who could waste more minutes of our time? Who am I kidding, Cena would win in a squash.

You said you'd take a English test when in fact, it should be an English test. And if your grammar were to be "consulted," it would mean that someone thinks you're an authority on the subject and is seeking your advice on it. Just saying is all.  |

The actor, I'm guessing, is the same one who was in the original Jungle Book who The Original Shiek used the name to call his nephew Sabu the Elephant Boy.

Clearly you're a fan of his considering the show is in your sig, and you made a thread about it. I'd figure you could at least spell the hosts name right. |
