JOKES JAY REJECTED
The Week January 8th, 2007


President Gerald Ford was buried in his hometwon of Grand Rapids, MI on Wednesday.....Ford is best known for being the only American president whose funeral lasted longer than his presidency.

Munkith Faroon, the man who prosectued Saddam Hussein, said that when guards began to taunt Saddam on the gallows, he came this close to calling off the execution.....But apparently he didn't want to leave anyone else hanging.

Linton Brooks was fired from his job as the head of the National Nuclear Security Administration.....That's gotta make you mad. You get fired by a guy who can't even pronounce "nuclear."

An FBI report reveals that former Chief Justice William Rehnquist was so disoriented while being treated for addiction to painkillers that he imagined the CIA was plotting against him and he tried to escape the hospital in his pajamas......That's what makes this such a great country. You start hallucinating and bolt from the hospital in your pajamas. They make you put a robe on. And the next thing you know you're Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court!

CBS has announced that "60 Minutes" will not replace the late correspondent Ed Bradley in the middle of the TV season.....In a related story, CBS announced that they're changing the name of the show to "52 Minutes."

Whitney Houston is selling hundreds of personal items at a New Jersey auction house. The auctioned items include a slot machine, a leather whip, and 13 bustier bras adorned with animal prints and sequins.....So apparently what happens in 'Vegas doesn't always stay in 'Vegas.

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline have reached a temporary joint custody agreement. Under terms of the agreement, Britney will keep the kids. And K-Fed will keep the joints.

Lindsay Lohan had her appendix removed yesterday. That's what I call growing up fast..... One day you're removing your panties for paparazzi. The next day you're removing your appendix.

Marilyn Manson and Dita Von Teese are getting divorced after a year of marriage..... Apparently they had nothing in common--except hair, makeup, nails and wardrobe.

Verne Troyer who played "Mini-Me" in the Austin Powers movies has entered rehab in Michigan for alcoholism.....In lieu of flowers, please send Miller(R) shorties.

Two people were stabbed to death at Cheli's Chili Bar in Detroit, a sports bar owned by Detroit Red Wings defenseman Chris Chelios.....If convicted, the perpetrator faces up to 10 minutes in the penalty box.

Tiger Woods and his wife announced that they're having a baby. And Michael Jordan and his wife announced that they're getting a divorce.....You don't suppose--nah!

A calf with two faces was born at a dairy farm in Virginia last month. The calf has two noses, two tongues, and two jaws--but only one mouth.....A "two-faced cow." Isn't that what The Donald called Rosie.

A Chicago woman was hospitalized with alcohol poisoning after playing a game of "Trivial Pursuit" in which participants had to down a drink every time they gave a wrong answer.....A Hollywood movie is already in the works. It's called "Dumb & Drunker."

And finally, and not a moment too soon.....

Parents of a disabled 9-year-old girl who cannot sit up, roll over, walk or talk had her uterus and breast tissue removed and had large doses of hormones injected to stunt her growth. They call her "pillow angel" because she sits neatly atop a pillow.....If that sounds creepy, you should meet "rear-view mirror girl" and "wallet boy."

Goodngiht everybody. Gino@wlup.com
