Jokes for Show #51

Thanks, Jimmy!
I realize now that the number one reason Jimmy Fallon & Co. haven’t yet hired me is that they didn’t want to force me to work on Memorial Day. I appreciate that, guys, because we had a great day with family today, and if I was already working for the show, that might not have been possible. But if Jimmy’s working, I’ve gotta pen (keyboard?) a few quick jokes:
- Today is Memorial Day. And of course, we want to take a moment to honor all who’ve served our country in the armed forces. We owe you so much. I, for one, shudder to think how weak the United States would be if we had to rely on unarmed forces. You can’t even hold a gun if you’re armless, I think. Unless you somehow hold it with your teeth.
- The website Twitter is in the planning stages of a reality show focused about the site. The show’s expected to be canceled after exactly 140 seconds.
- Jay Leno will leave the Tonight Show this Friday night. His chin should be gone by the following Tuesday.
