But if he makes you laugh, more power to you. Missy,

I'd love to tell you to go do something to yourself but that could get me banned. I'm more curious to the origins of the screen cap which was obviously sent out as P.R. from someone inside FBN.

He’s been at least as funny, even more so, since coming back on without them." Being as funny as he was in the past is no compliment. Leno is quite possibly the laziest comedian in the world, goes for the easiest punch lines, regularly dusts off Bob Hope's old jokes and retools them to fit whoever is popular now and has been ripping off Howard Stern's "sketch" ideas long before he hired Howard's old announcer. Leno makes "Larry the Cable Guy" seem innovative. And his ratings since the strike show it. “I think Jay Leno should just fire his writers.

I'm glad "American Dad!" is coming back, too, but that show is only moderately left ideologically...in my opinion.

He's been at least as funny, even more so, since coming back on without them. I guess he started out years ago writing his own jokes, and has certainly not lost the "knack" for doing so.
