It seemed like really nervous laughter from the crowd. I was on-edge! He almost looked like he was going to crack or something! Seriously, I was ready for him to say or do just about anything. At one point there were flashes of R. Budd Dwyer in my mind, not that I thought he would, just that I was expecting anything/everything.
Letterman's a weired guy, though. He's all very 'hush-hush' about everything, what with the ranch in the middle of nowhere and the 12,000 volt electric fence. He never really does interviews, rarely appears in films and always uses that pseudonym "Earl Hofert" whenever he is in one.
I can only imagine that the "evidence" in the box was photographs or tape recordings or something like that... He probably would have been very freaked out by the invasion. I guess that saying all this on air is his way of trying to take back a bit of control or whatever. I'm not surprised he called his lawyer first, though because he really only trusts "his people".
Also, I saw that clip of Conan bonking his noggin the other day. I didn't think it was funny; It looked like it hurt!
EDIT: I just looked the whole thing up on the Wiki:
"News reports the next day identified the perpetrator as Joe Halderman, a producer of the CBS series 48 Hours, who at one time lived with one of Letterman's assistants Stephanie Birkitt."
I remember her! He used to make her do a parody of her ex-boyfriend dancing to Rod Stewart!
I wonder was she one of the ones he was bangin'... or if maybe she just knew about the others.
