Here's one of the jokes from Fridays, as mentioned in the article:
"President Jimmy Carter said this week that after he leaves office he
plans
to return home to work on his memoirs and live the life of a loser. The
president's memoirs are tentatively titled 'How Ronald Reagan Whipped My
Ass' and they describe how Carter could rise from obscurity in Plains,
Georgia, to the most powerful office in the land and still wind up in
obscurity in Plains, Georgia."
What a dumb joke. A much better joke was the one Floyd Robertson read
during a Season 3 SCTV Newscast:
"The Soviet Union denies that it invaded the country of Yemen, saying the
presence of 250,000 Soviet troops in that nation was purely coincidental.
Soviet premier Leonid Brezhnev said 'the soldiers had two weeks off, and
decided to go to Yemen because they have nice beaches.... yeah, that's
it...
nice beaches.....it's true, I swear, I....' End quote."
Now that is an example of a funny news joke! SCTV was the master. All
bow
before them.
