Got to give it up for Today's Winner; her scrawny head and shoulders tower above her peers. I haven’t seen her in much since I tried to watch that bizarre and terrible FX network show about the gypsies squatting in the McMansions. Also, with Conan O’Brien so much in the news this month, I’m afraid I have to admit that her entire career is largely eclipsed in my subconscious by a silly musical bit Conan did about six or seven years ago, a sort of Sing-A-Long-with-Mitch-type number which had as its closing lines,


“…And by coincidence

Minnie Driver’s the name

Women use to describe Conan’s penis.”
