I have a theory that God watches the monologues of the late night TV comedians and, every so often, he decides they're weak in subject matter. It's like, "Hmm…Dave and Jay don't have much to talk about. I'd better give them something." If the material is really weak, he'll have a Congressman or even a President caught in a sex scandal. If it's only so-so, he'll arrange something that offers less opportunity for jokes, like the President choking on a pretzel or Michael Jackson getting in trouble again.
And then, about once a week, he'll see that there's one news item that's so silly — so fraught with possibilities for humor — that it's good for at least 20 monologue jokes per comedian. Here's this week's. Watch and see if any of them can resist this. (It's the first item…the one about the bras.)
