JAY LENO’S MONOLOGUE HIGHLIGHTS

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2011

DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS?  YESTERDAY A GIANT ASTEROID, THE SIZE OF AN AIRCRAFT CARRIER, PASSED CLOSER TO THE EARTH THAN ANY OTHER ASTEROID IN THE PAST 35 YEARS.   IN FACT, IT ACTUALLY CAME CLOSER TO THE EARTH THAN THE INDIANAPOLIS COLTS HAVE GOTTEN TO THE END ZONE ALL SEASON.

THIS REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL RACE IS TAKEN ALL KINDS OF TURNS; RON PAUL WON THE STRAW POLL IN ILLINOIS.  A LOT OF PEOPLE DON’T KNOW THIS, BUT RON PAUL IS A DOCTOR AND BEFORE HE TURNED TO POLITICS HE WORKED FOR MANY YEARS AS A GYNECOLOGIST.  AND YET, EVEN AS A GYNECOLOGIST HE HASN’T TOUCHED AS MANY WOMEN AS HERMAN CAIN.  I WAS STUNNED TO LEARN THAT.

THE LATEST NBC POLL SHOWS JON HUNTSMAN, WHO IS ALSO RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT, AT 0%.  HE PEAKED AT 3%, HE IS NOW AT 0%. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS?  HE'S NOT EVEN VOTING FOR HIMSELF.

THIS SEEMS LIKE A BAD IDEA; BUDGET AIRLINE RYANAIR ANNOUNCED PLANS TO LAUNCH A PAY-PER-VIEW PORNOGRAPHY SERVICE FOR PASSENGERS TO WATCH DURING FLIGHTS.  YOU CAN WATCH PORNO ON THE PLANE?  HOW MUCH DO THEY CHARGE FOR A BLANKET ON THAT FLIGHT?  HOW MUCH DO THEY CHARGE FOR THAT?I GUESS YOU GET TO KEEP IT AFTERWARDS.  KEEP THE BLANKET.

SCARY MOMENT UP IN WASHINGTON STATE TODAY…YOU PROBABLY SAW THIS ON THE NEWS.  A YOUNG GIRL WAS TRAPPED INSIDE A LAUNDROMAT WASHING MACHINE.  TURNED IT ON…YOU CAN’T OPEN IT WHILE IT’S ON, THE GIRL IS IN THERE, AND THE WATER IS FILLING UP, THE GIRL IS SCREAMING AND SPINNING…  THE MOTHER COULDN’T OPEN IT, SO SHE RAN OUT TO HER CAR, GOT A WRENCH, AND BROKE THE GLASS, PULLED THE GIRL OUT.  THE GIRL IS FINE – SHE'S IN THE DRYER NOW.  SHE’S FINE.
