JAY LENO’S MONOLOGUE

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2010

THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF THE HOTTEST WEEKS IN CALIFORNIA HISTORY, 113 ON MONDAY.  IN FACT, IT WAS SO HOT TODAY PRESIDENT OBAMA WENT INTO SOMEONE’S BACKYARD JUST TO USE THE SLIP-N-SLIDE.  THAT’S HOW HOT.

CONGRESS ADJOURNED FOR 45 DAYS. TAKE A BREAK GUYS.  YOU’RE KNOCKING YOURSELVES OUT.  WHEN THEY COME BACK AFTER NOVEMBER 15TH.  THEY WILL BE A LAME DUCK CONGRESS.  WHICH IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT CONGRESS CAN BE ANY LAMER THAN IT’S BEEN FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS.

YESTERDAY PRESIDENT OBAMA SAID, "NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO QUIT". AND TODAY RAHM EMANUEL QUIT.

THE PRESIDENT’S CHIEF OF STAFF HAS RESIGNED.  DURING HIS FARWELL SPEECH EMANUEL CRIED BECAUSE HE WAS LEAVING THE WHITE HOUSE.  OF COURSE, PRESIDENT OBAMA CRIED BECAUSE HE’S STILL THERE.

ARNOLD SCHWARTZENEGGER SIGNED A LANDMARK BILL THIS MORNING DECRIMINALIZING POSSESSION OF MARIJUANA.  CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR, MEG WHITMAN SAID DOESN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT AS LONG AS THE DRUG DEALER YOU BUY IT FROM WAS LEGAL.

AS YOU MAY HAVE HEARD; THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE MEG WHITMAN IS IN TROUBLE FOR ALLEGEDLY HAVING AN UNDOCUMENTED ALIEN WORKING IN HER HOME.  OF COURSE, GLORIA ALLRED IS REPRESENTING THE UNDOCUMENTED ALIEN.  IN FACT GLORIA ALLRED CALLED THE MAID THE ROSA PARKS OF THE LATINO COMMUNITY. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT ROSA PARKS WAS HERE LEGALLY.

I LOVE THIS STORY.  AN AUSTRALIAN MAN IS SUING HIS BOSS FOR PRESSURING HIM TO GO ON AN OFFICE RETREAT AT A NUDIST RESORT THAT WAS FOR MEN ONLY.  SO SEE THAT GUYS, I'M NOT THE ONLY BOSS WHO DOES THIS.

I THINK THE GUY GOT SUSPICIOUS DURING THE TUG OF WAR.

ASTRONOMERS SAY THEY’VE FOUND A NEW BLACK HOLE IN OUR GALAXY.  THE BAD NEWS; IT’S THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT.

THINGS ARE NOT LOOKING GOOD FOR THE U.S. DOLLAR; IT’S FALLING FAST.  IN FACT, WE JUST HAD THE BIGGEST ONE MONTH DROP IN TWO YEARS.  GIVE YOU AN IDEA HOW BAD THE DOLLAR IS, I WENT TO BUY GOLD TODAY AND THEY SAID I CAN ONLY BUY IT WITH GOLD.

THE MOVIE "THE SOCIAL NETWORK" OPENS TONIGHT.  IT'S AN INCREDIBLE TRUE STORY OF THE INVENTOR OF FACEBOOK, HOW  HE BECAME THE YOUNGEST BILLIONAIRE IN HISTORY AND SINGLE HANDEDLY REVOLUTIONIZED THE WAY PEOPLE WASTE TIME AT WORK.

ACCORDING TO A STUDY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES, MEN PREFER A WOMAN WITH LONG ARMS OVER A WOMAN WITH PERFECT CLEAVAGE.  REALLY?  THEN HOW COME MEN GO TO TOPLESS BARS INSTEAD OF ARM WRESTLING CONTESTS?  WHY IS THAT?

POLICE IN HOUSTON ARE INVESTIGATING THE DEATH OF A 35 YEAR OLD MAN WHOSE BODY WAS FOUND LOCKED INSIDE A VIDEO BOOTH AT AN ADULT BOOK STORE 24 HOURS AFTER HE WAS SEEN ENTERING THE BOOTH. HE WAS IN THERE FOR 24 HOURS AND THEY FOUND HIM DEAD.  POLICE THINK HE MAY HAVE DIED FROM A SERIES OF STROKES.
