JAY LENO’S MONOLOGUE HIGHLIGHTS

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 2011

BIG NEWS TODAY ON HEALTH CARE REFORM; DR. MURRAY IS GOING TO JAIL.

CONRAD MURRAY WAS FOUND GUILTY OF GIVING MICHAEL JACKSON AN OVERDOSE OF A PRESCRIPTION SLEEPING AID.  PRETTY RECKLESS ON THE PART OF THE DOCTOR; THEY SAY THE SEDATIVE HE PRESCRIBED WAS FIVE-TIMES MORE POWERFUL THAN A JOE BIDEN SPEECH.

HERMAN CAIN IS ALSO TAKING SOME FLACK FOR SAYING THAT CHINA WAS DEVELOPING NUCLEAR WEAPONS, BUT THEY'VE HAD THEM SINCE THE 6O'S. I DON’T THINK HE’S THAT WELL VERSED ON FOREIGN AFFAIRS. TODAY A REPORTER ASKED HIM HOW HE WOULD HANDLE GREECE? AND HE SAID HE WOULD PUT AN EXTRA LAYER OF WAX PAPER UNDER THE PIZZA BEFORE YOU PUT IT IN THE BOX.

LINDSAY LOHAN SENTENCED TO 30 DAYS IN JAIL…SHE WAS OUT IN FOUR AND A HALF HOURS.  YOU THOUGHT CELEBRITY MARRIAGES WE'RE OVER FAST.  OH MY GOD.

ACTUALLY, THE REAL REASON THEY LET LINDSAY OUT EARLY WAS BECAUSE OF JAIL OVERCROWDING IN CALIFORNIA.  IRONICALLY, THE MAIN REASON FOR THE OVERCROWDING?  THE LOHAN FAMILY.  THEY ARE ALL IN THERE.  

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT FROM HERMAN CAIN TODAY.  HE’S LEAVING THE TEA PARTY AND JOINING THE T&A PARTY.

AS YOU KNOW, A 20-YEAR-OLD WOMAN HAS FILED A PATERNITY SUIT AGAINST JUSTIN BIEBER.  SHE CLAIMS SHE MET HIM AFTER ONE OF HIS CONCERTS AND HAD SEX WITH HIM FOR 30 SECONDS.  SO SEE THAT, DESPITE ALL HIS WEALTH AND FAME, HE'S JUST A REGULAR GUY!  THIRTY SECONDS, HE MUST HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT BASEBALL OR SOMETHING.

DOCTORS IN ISRAEL NOW SAY THAT A SIMPLE JOLT OF ELECTRICITY MAY CURE MALE IMPOTENCE.  YOU KNOW, IT’S BAD ENOUGH YOU HAVE TO CHARGE YOUR CELLPHONE, THEN YOUR LAPTOP, NOW YOU HAVE TO PLUG YOUR PENIS IN BEFORE YOU GO TO BED! TERRIBLE IDEA.
