Hire Me, Jimmy Fallon! » Harry Potter http://hiremejimmyfallon.com Lex Friedman's quest to get a job writing for Late Night. Sat, 19 Dec 2009 13:40:34 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 Jokes for Show #7 http://hiremejimmyfallon.com/2009/03/jokes-for-show-7/ http://hiremejimmyfallon.com/2009/03/jokes-for-show-7/#comments Wed, 11 Mar 2009 02:08:45 +0000 Lex Friedman http://hiremejimmyfallon.com/?p=51 My suggestions for tonight’s monologue:

  • Bernie Madoff, the 70-year-old trader accused of defrauding investors of billions, will be pleading guilty, and could be sentenced to 150 years in prison. With good behavior, he could be released right before his 200th birthday.
  • A first edition Harry Potter book was sold for $19,000. And they say there’s a recession! Specifically, it was Harry Potter and the Disappearing Savings Account.
  • Coolio has been charged with crack cocaine possession. We talked about it in the writer’s room, and we decided this story needs so punchline: Coolio’s enough of a joke as it is.
  • Chris Brown and Rhianna are reportedly recording a duet together. It’s reportedly a remake, entitled “Anything you can do, I can do battered.”

Boom! Good luck with tonight’s show, Jimmy!
