ACT 1
Dave laments, "I got a hold of something and it won't leave me alone." He had one of those protein shakes that comes back to "say hello to me every few seconds." It a shake made of fruit and a cup-and-a-half of paint.
There's some interesting news about Jenna Bush that's been revealed. We take a look.
Announce:
(various shots of the White House) "Jenna Bush recently told 'Texas Monthly' that she has heard ghosts while in the White House. Could there really be an evil, ghostly, undead creature wandering the halls of the White House? You betcha. (cut to shot of Dick Cheney) Dick Cheney: Locked and Loaded."
Our costume designer Susan Hum makes an unexpected entrance. She is holding a bowl of something and stands beside Dave.
DAVE: "Hi, Sue."
SUE: "I made macaroni & cheese."
DAVE: "That's great, Sue."
Dave goes on with the show. Sue remains.
DAVE: "Sue, is there something I can help you with?"
SUE: "Everyone loves macaroni & cheese."
DAVE: "Sue, we're right in the middle of a show. Maybe some other time."
SUE: (turning angry) "Don't get cute with me, you Nancy-boy!" She drops the bowl of macaroni & cheese and exits. She points a threatening finger Dave's way as she exits.
A new government report has compiled a list of the most depressing jobs in America. We have a summary of the results here:

Someday you'll understand.
ACT 3
AMANDA PEET
Amanda is a mom of an 8 month old baby girl. Ahhh, coming to the Late Show must be like a vacation! Is baby a good sleeper? She gets about 11 hours. Amanda and husband attempted the Ferber method of getting their child to sleep. I'm familiar with this and for Denise and me it worked like a charm, but it is a bit nerve wracking. How it works is when it's time for baby to go to bed, you put the baby down in the crib. You let the baby cry for 5 minutes. You then go in and calm the child without touching him or her. You can speak softly to her, but you cannot touch; you cannot pick up. When baby is quieted after a few minutes, you leave. If baby starts crying again, you let her cry for 7 or 8 minutes, then repeat the above. Do it again and then you let baby cry for 10 minutes. You keep increasing the time away until the baby sleeps. For us, by the third night our twin girls were sleeping throughout the night. But it is agonizing to sit outside their bedroom door listening them cry. It's tough.
Does Amanda sing to her daughter to try to get her to sleep? She doesn't. Dave used to sing to Harry, until one night when Dave said, "OK, Harry, now it's time for a song . . ." and Harry responded, "No song, daddy."
Having a first child is very difficult on a parent. As Dave says, "You make a lot of rookie mistakes."
