An astute staff member who either watches The Tonight Show (we don’t) or got a press release (we didn’t) indicates that Jay Leno made this joke last night: “It seems all high school wrestling in the state of Minnesota — the entire state of Minnesota — has been temporarily suspended because of a herpes outbreak.  Let me tell you something, if you’re catching herpes from
wrestling, you’re pinning the other guy all wrong.” Once and for all: This is herpes gladiatorum we’re talking about here — not the other kind of herpes. Yeah, it’s fun and all to make jokes about it, but it amounts to fourth-grade snickering about a word with a double-meaning. Now, you want to know what is funny? Ron Mexico. That’s funny. Always.
