JAY LENO’S MONOLOGUE  THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2011
 
THIS COLD WEATHER WILL NOT LET UP.  IT IS UNBELIEVABLE.  IT WAS SO COLD IN WASHINGTON TODAY THEY NEEDED JUMPER CABLES TO GET DICK CHENEY STARTED.
 
THIS STORM HAS CAUSED OVER 11,OOO FLIGHTS TO BE CANCELLED. IN FACT, MANY PILOTS HAD TO SLEEP AT THE AIRPORT BECAUSE THEY WERE TOO DRUNK TO DRIVE HOME.
 
HAVE YOU NOTICED HALF OF PROTEST SIGNS IN EGYPT ARE IN ENGLISH. HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT?  THEY MADE THE SIGNS SO AMERICANS COULD READ THEM. THEY DID.  TO MAKE SURE ALL AMERICANS READ THEM, THE OTHER HALF OF THE SIGNS ARE IN SPANISH.
 
WITNESSES ARE NOW REPORTING THAT PRESIDENT MUBARAK HAS HIRED THUGS TO POSE AS SUPPORTERS TO STIR UP TROUBLE IN THE STREETS.  HE'S ACTUALLY PAYING PEOPLE TO SUPPORT HIM.  AND TODAY, THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS SAID, "YOU CAN DO THAT?  YOU CAN PAY PEOPLE?" 
 
THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS LOST AGAIN LAST NIGHT. THAT'S THEIR 22ND CONSECUTIVE LOSS; I THINK THAT IS JUST ONE SHORT OF THE NBA RECORD.  AND HERE’S THE WORST PART—IT WAS A FATHER SON GAME.  THAT’S THE BAD…
 
ANYBODY SEE THE CAVALIERS/PACERS GAME LAST NIGHT?  THEY HAD A BIG PROMOTION:  THE FIRST FIVE CAVALIER FANS TO ARRIVE AT THE STADIUM GOT TO START.
 
THE WHITE HOUSE DRUG CZAR IS WARNING PEOPLE AGAINST TAKING A NEW DRUG THAT'S MARKETED AS "BATH SALTS."  HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THIS?  THIS IS REAL.  IT’S BEING SOLD ILLEGALLY ON THE INTERNET. THEY SAY THE SIDE EFFECTS INCLUDE CHEST PAINS, INCREASED BLOOD PRESSURE, AND LANDING A STARRING ROLE ON "TWO AND A HALF MEN."
 
POLICE ARE NOW INVESTIGATING WHETHER LINDSAY LOHAN MAY HAVE STOLEN A VALUABLE NECKLACE FROM A JEWELRY STORE.  APPARENTLY SHE WANTED SOMETHING NICE TO GO WITH THE ANKLE BRACELET SHE’S ALREADY WEARING.
 
IF LINDSAY IS FOUND GUILTY SHE MAY HAVE TO GO BACK TO REHAB.  TO WHICH CHARLIE SHEEN SAID, "I HAVE A SPARE BEDROOM."
 
HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!  DID YOU KNOW THIS?  THIS IS THE YEAR 4709.  WHICH IS ALSO THE YEAR WE WILL PAY OFF OUR LOAN TO CHINA. 
 
THIS IS KIND OF SAD; THE GLOBE IS REPORTING THAT PRINCE CHARLES MAY BE SUFFERING FROM MEMORY LOSS AND THAT CAMILLA PARKER BOWLES SAYS HE IS HAVING TROUBLE REMEMBERING. IN FACT, THIS MORNING HE WAS SO CONFUSED HE LEFT FOR WORK BEFORE REALIZING HE’S NEVER EVER HAD A JOB
