Anyway I still haven't seen much advice, so I'll give you the standard pitch: never mind what YOU should say, just keep her talking and actually listen.

Too many guys are worried about trying to impress a woman - if she's talking to you, she already is half-way there, you just have to keep from screwing up and acting like every other self-important clown she's had to put up with. Comment on her clothing, her hair (especially if it's different, women love hearing that their hair looks good because #1 they worry about their hair obsessively and #2 it shows that you are interested in her enough to notice); ask her just about anything as long as its not too personal but is still relevant - what's her favorite sport, who does she admire, ask her to sing her favorite song - anything goes, really.

If she asks you questions, answer, but don't go off too long on how awesome you are - and for that matter, don't denigrate yourself either. Just act like a regular human being and you'll be fine, constrain yourself from trying to be too clever or cool and you can't go far wrong.
