Jimmy Fallon is back, and even his monologue is more fun than letting mice loose in church. The results are in, for those of you who follow competitive eating…And what kind of patriotic holiday would the 4th of July be without gluttony? The world is watching, America! We’re still first in something.
While Jimmy was on hiatus, the enmity in Washington D.C. did not take a break, instead escalating with Speaker John Boehner’s announcement that he was considering suing President Obama. The sad news takes a funny turn when Jimmy jokes about it, describing a possible alternate plan Obama might employ, followed by, “I can do this all day Boehner,” Jimmy ad-libbed, sounding very much like President Obama.
Jimmy is equally convincing when he invites us to imagine the case before the Supreme Court. Complete with the dramatic ” People’s Court” music and intro – with Jimmy perfect as long-time announcer Doug Llewelyn. “This is the plaintiff, House Speaker John Boehner, he claims the President has used his powers to pass laws” But, where does the Miami Sound Machine fit in? Why worry! It certainly lends a festive atmosphere to an otherwise dull and silly Supreme Court hearing.
Hillary Clinton’s book is last on the agenda. Jimmy observes that maybe the title “Hard Choices” is responsible for the drop in sales, and offers several alternative titles, all of which Hillary is free to use…I’ll mention only two.
I think every woman can relate to this one. “Hillary Clinton and the Deathly Haircuts.”
Pictured of course, is “Kill Bill Volume 3” One may draw his or her own conclusions about this intriguing title.
