ask of some Noo Yawk "comics", “If you were Jay Leno, what would be the one joke that you would tell that could possibly get people to forgive you for what happened?” The results:
• “Ladies and gentlemen, the only reason you see me standing here is I was NBC's Plan B. Plan A involved the corpse of Johnny Carson and a lightning bolt.” —Jay BlackBa-doom-BOOM!
• “We've decided to start fresh at the Tonight Show, so we've added some new segments: 'In the Year 4000,' 'Jay's Book Club,' and 'Top Eleven Lists.'" —Veronica MoseyBa-doom-BOOM!
• "Remember when the Taliban was overthrown, but then they came back into power again? Hi, I'm Jay." —Tom CotterBa-doom-BOOM!
• "Me going back to the Tonight Show is like saying, 'Check the prostate again, Doc, and this time have some fun with it!'" —Chip HirschfieldBa-doom-BOOM!
• “The New York Times [SIC]
asked people to send in their joke ideas, jokes, or lines that they'd tell, if they were me, that could possibly get people back in my corner. I sent in four pages. It all got rejected.” —Yes, Jackie "the Joke Man" MartlingBa-doom-BOOM!
