wtf???

Hanks is one of several celebrities who frequently participates in planned comedy bits on Conan O'Brien's talk shows, including Late Night, The Tonight Show, and Conan while a guest. On one visit, Hanks asked O'Brien to join his run for president on the "Bad Haircut Party" ticket, with confetti and balloons and a hand held sign with the slogan "You'd be stupid to vote for us". On another episode, O'Brien, noting that Hanks was missing Christmas on his promotional tour, brought the season to him, including a gift (the skeleton of Hooch), and a mass of snow burying them both. On yet another episode, O'Brien gave Hanks a painting he had commissioned reflecting two of his interests: Astronauts landing on the beach at Normandy.[citation needed]

Not done: This information is already at Tom Hanks filmography, which is linked from this article. This is a common practice on Wikipedia with biographies of people who have an extensive volume of work. Adding his full filmography to this article would make it unnecessarily long and unwieldy. See WP:LENGTH. If you have a specific edit that you think needs to be made to this article, please make it in the form of "Change XX to YY". Thanks! --ElHef (Meep?) 15:51, 16 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Birthday/Marriage Incongruency

Says he was married in 1965, which would make him 9 at the time, if he was born in 1956. Pretty sure that's not correct.
