Don is HOT!

Did you watch "Judgmental Bastard", that DLF teased? Funnnnny.

Don is the best when the irony fairly drips.

Don was on Jay Leno again tonight and was hysterical. He blew a line and made a joke of it. Don definitely performs well under pressure and has a great sense of humor.

Wonder if he ever loses the sparkle in his eye??? I sure wouldn't want to be his spouse or kid when he gets mad though! Gasp

I have a feeling that Don will be back on Jay again soon.

Todd,

In one of these interviews that's been posted recently (I think it might have been the one that ran on "Today") Don said something almost exactly like that, joking about being the "heir to the lizard."

Yep, he said that during the Today Show interview, but I don't think that part aired, I think you can only see that on Joe Cip's extended version.

I love that line!

He really is a gentleman.

do you think it was cut because the line might have gone like this:

"Heir to the lizard, that insert DLF's favorite cuss word here."
