Boys, there ain't no free lunches in this country. And don't go spending your whole life commiserating that you got the raw deals. You've got to say, ''I think that if I keep working at this and want it bad enough I can have it.'' It's called perseverance.

NBC Pulls Conan O’Brien’s Devious ‘Bugatti Veyron Mouse’ Sketch Off the Net

looks like nbc knows how to punch back when it’s being taunted. the almighty pea­cock pulled the web clips from conan’s ridicu­lously expen­sive ‘bugatti vey­ron’ sketch off nbc.com and hulu. the move was made to avoid pay­ing extrav­a­gant roy­alty fees when o’brien decided to play ‘sat­is­fac­tion’ from the rolling stones.

the soon to be gone “tonight show’ host exclaimed that even though his show is about to go off the air, “we can do what­ever we want, and they (nbc) would have to pay for it”. to prove it, he rolled out a bugatti vey­ron (the most expen­sive car in the world) dressed up as a mouse, while play­ing the rolling stone’s iconic ‘sat­is­fac­tion’ tune in the back­ground as the car’s theme song — mak­ing this $1.5 mil­lion sketch the most expen­sive to date.

i’m curi­ous to see what devi­ous lit­tle plan coco’s cooked up for next show. aren’t you?
