Chumworth Jokes Submitted to the Late Show

From July 2003 until October 2009 I wrote and submitted monologue jokes to the LATE SHOW with DAVID LETTERMAN. I wrote and submitted about 10 jokes for each show they taped, the vast majority of which were not used. But a couple of times each month (sometimes more, sometimes less) Dave would use one on air and I would get paid for it!

Dave is one of my top two all-time comedy heroes, so it was an honor and a privilege to hear him tell a joke I wrote. Every single time. It never, ever got old.

This section displays all of the jokes I submitted over the years, in all their glory (such as it is). Use the archive links at the lower left to jump to a specific month, or the search box to look for jokes on a certain topic.

Jokes highlighted in bold were used on air (sometimes after further modification), though I don't remember when I started using this convention. You can see all of my jokes that were used on air by Dave (as well as those told by Jay and Carson and Jimmy) on my Late Night Jokes page.

Enjoy!

TUESDAY: It’s 2007 and I’m still writing 2006 on my checks.

Last night I did it on three straight checks when I was trying to pay for sex.


TUESDAY: The other night I watched the big New Year’s Eve show on TV.

It was a big show; there were people dancing in the street, bands performing and it was all hosted by Ryan Seacrest – no, wait, I’m sorry, that the was the Saddam Hussein execution.


TUESDAY: Over on ABC the other night they had Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, hosted by Ryan Seacrest and Dick Clark.

Did you see him? It was sad; he looked awful, he seemed confused and he couldn’t speak coherently – and Dick Clark didn’t look too good either.


TUESDAY: Over at my house we had the annual Letterman family New Year’s Eve party on Sunday night.

My Uncle Earl was there and by midnight he’d already eaten three bags of confetti.


TUESDAY: Everybody’s still in the New Year’s spirit.

Earlier today Madonna adopted the Baby New Year.


TUESDAY: Saddam Hussein was hanged last week.

Well, that should close the book on that whole Iraq thing.


TUESDAY: Saddam Hussein was hanged last week.

Hanging wasn’t his preferred method of execution; he was hoping for death by chocolate.

So it was almost exactly three years between when we pulled him out of that spider hole and when we put him right back in it.


TUESDAY: Have you seen the video of Saddam Hussein being hanged?

I saw it and it’s rough. I haven’t seen somebody get it like that on video since Paris Hilton.


TUESDAY: Yesterday down in Texas a small plane violated the airspace over President Bush’s ranch.

It turned out to be a pilot error but just to be safe the Secret Service rushed President Bush to a more secure spot so he could continue doing nothing.


TUESDAY: Former President Gerald Ford died last week at the age of 93.

Gerald Ford was the only man who became president without being elected president or vice president – other than George Bush.


FRIDAY: Celebrity birthdays: Porky Pig turns 71 tomorrow.

He’s the most famous 70-something without pants other than Ted Kennedy.


They had James Brown’s body on stage at the Apollo Theater last week.

Before they brought out James Brown’s body they warmed up the crowd with Sammy Davis Jr.’s body.


Big crowds of people went to the Apollo Theater last week to see the body of James Brown.

I believe it was the most people to see a corpse on stage other than Joan Rivers.


Big crowds of people went to the Apollo Theater last week to see the body of James Brown.

So many people turned up to see him that his body’s been booked for a two week run in Las Vegas.


Harrison Ford is going to make another Indiana Jones movie this year.

In this movie Indiana Jones is going to be a little older; the working title is Indiana Jones and the Prostate of Doom.


Last week in California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger broke his leg skiing.

The good news is the doctors say he won’t need crutches – since his knuckles reach the ground.


Congratulations to Kate Moss and Pete Doherty who were married in Thailand last week.

The whole thing was pretty secret. The only we thing we know for sure was that there was at least one crummy singer at the reception.
