No Secretariat, but I have a horsie, too. You know where!<\/em> And he’s enjoying his weekend:\u00c2\u00a0 Saturday funtime. #christmasstuffinyourpants<\/a>. <\/em>He also thanked his creator Grant Imahara<\/strong> for stopping by the studio on Friday, taping an appearance for later this month:\u00c2\u00a0 Oh and thanks to @grantimahara<\/a> for the house call today. He gave me a clean bill, tight nuts, and left with a mouth organ. Oh my! <\/em>Grant tweeted that while he wouldn’t be on Friday night, he’d be on soon and making some music:\u00c2\u00a0 Sorry peeps, I will be appearing on The LateLateShow next week. Will let u know when so you can catch my harmonica duet with Craig!<\/em>\r\n\r\nLate Late Show producer Michael Naidus<\/strong> is a big fan of Friday night’s musical act:\u00c2\u00a0 2 random but true facts. (A) I go to about two live concerts a year. (B) I once flew cross-country to see @nellie_mckay<\/a> on Broadway.<\/em>\r\n\r\nEach year, Google announces its “Zeitgiest” report of the most searched terms in a variety of categories.\u00c2\u00a0 @LLS_Episodes<\/strong> noticed that Craig ranked third in the fastest-rising TV show hosts category<\/a> for 2010, behind Sarah Silverman<\/strong> and Conan O’Brien<\/strong> but ahead of Oprah Winfrey<\/strong> and Ellen DeGeneres<\/strong>.\u00c2\u00a0 Thanks to the RSA’s @Fronneke<\/strong> who spotted a Gather.com<\/a> article about the category.\r\n\r\n<\/em>\r\n\r\nSaturday, December 11th is National Noodle Ring Day, International Mountain Day and International Children’s Day to mark the birthday of UNICEF.\u00c2\u00a0 Sunday, December 12th is the anniversary of the patenting of the hovercraft, Poinsettia Day and National Ding-a-Ling Day (do your own joke #inyourpants).","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
