Happy Friday — have a trailer for the new Conan movie…torn torsos, impalings, evisceration, and most importantly no real evidence of a story — just like the original. Now all we need is James Earl Jones and we’re gold, Jerry…Read on turks.

But of course he has to resign, and go to rehab, so at least there’s the chance he’ll be back. Never mind the fact that he seemed to do NYC some good
