Oprah's Favorite Things (and other Oprah news)

So today was the big day. Oprah's Favorite Things. If you missed out on the frenzy, check out the list here (which includes the new Video iPod) and her holiday gift suggestions here.

In other Oprah news, Roger Ebert amusingly relates "How I gave Oprah her start" (and will guest on Wednesday's show). And on December 1, Oprah will be a guest on Letterman for the first time since May 2, 1989. (She'll be promoting The Color Purple on Broadway, and is currently celebrating her 20th Anniversary.)
