With Election Day approaching, the presidential candidates stepped up theirTV appearances. This week, Gore and Bush were on Letterman, Regis, and”The View”. Meanwhile, Ralph Nader was a plaintiff on “Judge Joe Brown”,and Pat Buchanan appeared on a security camera at a Walgreen’s.

This just in – New York City Police have reportedly apprehended the personwho let the dogs out.

Tina Fey: Prostitutes in Lyons, France sent a fax to the governmentto complain that they are losing business to Eastern European women whoare protected by the Albanian mafia.

Okay, first of all, how rough-looking are these French prostitutes thatall their customers are running to the Albanians? Secondly, why did theysend a fax, and from whence? Do they have a fax machine in the whorehouse,or did they all trundle down to Kinko’s – “You fax these, I’ll let you shaveme.” Thirdly, how come French whores know how to work a fax machine, butevery time I try to use it, I hit Power Save, or I forget to dial 9.. Thisjust proves what my boyfriend always says – that I am dumber than a Frenchwhore.

Back to you, Jimmy!

Jimmy Fallon: You take this one.

Tina Fey: Alright, I’ll take this one!
