(From Tuesday night’s monologue: “Oh, I gotta tell you, Kev. I saw paranormal activity. Not the movie, the Phillies fighting their way back from the dead. Very exciting. Very exciting. In fact, coming in this morning, I heard the Phillies’ theme song on the radio: Stayin’ Alive! Stayin’ Alive! Well they’re hanging in. They go back to New York for game six tomorrow night. This is going to be the classic match-up: we’ll see if the Phillies’ Dominican and Korean players can beat the Yankees’ Japanese and Panamanian players. Because it is America’s pastime. And for the first time in 27 years, an American has won the New York City marathon. So now the Kenyans will just be satisfied with winning the White House. They’ll have to take that. God, can you believe it’s been a year since Barack Obama was elected president? Actually, there have been some changes: His new slogan is now ‘Yes We Can, But Don’t Hold Your Breath.’” Those were the first five jokes he told.)
