Archiver's Note:

This one's really long. There are two bits, one with David Spade, and the other with Chris Farley and Adam Sandler which is especially funny. Watch for the patented "so I says to the guy, I says".

March 18th, 1994

Thank you, thanks. I'm Norm Macdonald, and this is the fake news:

A Michigan man has been arrested for the murder of a coworker following their joint appearance on the 'Jenny Jones Show'. Jenny Jones says she's very upset over the incident. How upset? Find out on the next 'Jenny Jones.'


F. Lee Bailey said this week that if the defense only knew what Ron Goldman's last words where, they might be able to find the real killer. You know, if you ask me, Goldman's last words where probably, ah, "Hey, you're OJ Simpson!"


And, Bailey insists he's talked to potential witness Maximo Cordova. "I have not talked to F. Lee Bailey," says Maximo Cordova. Who's right and who's wrong? Find out on the next 'Cordova'.


Some teenagers are snorting or injecting Ritalin, a drug prescribed to treat attention deficit disorder in children. Drug abuse experts warn that Ritalin can cause accelerated blood pressure, along with enhanced mental alertness, a surge of energy, and an increased sense of self-confidence. And remember kids: those are bad things.


Well, tests got underway this week to see if those new outlawed bullets are really as dangerous as everyone says.


Norm: Well, in weather news, the south has been hit with a record number of tornadoes this month. Now a lot of viewers, ah, don't understand what a tornado actually is. So here to explain is best selling author of 'You May Be a Redneck", comedian, Jeff Foxworthy. Jeff:

Jeff Foxworthy (David Spade): Thank you Norm, thank you. If you have wind swirling around you at 140 miles per hour and lawn chairs flying about, you might be a tornado.

If cumulous and nimbus clouds dissipate when you're around, there's a good change you're a tornado.

If you're an extra tropical funnel comprised of warm humid air conflicting with dry air, causing a cone shaped swirling cloud that periodically touches down and tears a brutal path wherever it hits, there's a chance you may be a tornado.

If people see you and run, there's a good argument to be made, that you could be characterized, not unfairly, as a tornado.

If you where in Enid, Oklahoma in February, 1960 and when you finished your destructive rampage, 26 people where left for dead, you may be a tornado.


If you look in the mirror and see this, you--

Norm: Hey, hey Jeff, now ah, those are really funny but, hey, why don't you give us a redneck joke, huh? Like, ah, you know if, ah, if your family tree does not fork, you may be a redneck. One of those?

Jeff Foxworthy: Well Norm, that was last year, right now I'm focusing on promoting my new book 'You May Be a Tornado If...'. Which is in its third printing and has hilarious jokes like the ones I just told you plus a whole lot more.

Norm: Well, good luck there Jeff. Thanks a lot for stopping by.

Jeff Foxworthy: There ya go Norm! Thank you!

Norm: Jeff Foxworthy!

Jeff Foxworthy: Tornado!
