Matt Lauer hit by funny bombs at Friars Club roast

Quote:
Matt Lauer knew he'd be skewered at his Friars Club roast Friday at the Hilton - but when Tom Cruise showed up, he was toast.

The two famously argued over psychiatry and anti-depressants when Lauer interviewed the "War of the Worlds" star on the "Today" show in 2005.

So when Cruise bounded out of the audience, Lauer nearly fell off the dais.

"You know, I was just taking his advice. He told me, 'Nobody wants to hear about your dopey movie. Go crazy. People will love you for it.'

Lauer managed to get in the last jab.

As Cruise tried to cut out early, the 6-foot Lauer called out to the much-shorter Cruise, "Can't you stay, man? We can get you a booster seat."

"No one who...conjures up the most evil of those half-tamed demons that inhabit the human beast, and seeks to wrestle with them, can expect to come through the struggle unscathed." - Freud

62 years ago, January 30, 1948, Gandhi was assassinated. His tech lives on.


February 2010 - The beginning of the end.

March 2010 - Kirstie Alley takes over cult promotional duties from Tom Cruise and excels.
