LAUGH LINES
For Sale: “The Unabomber is selling his property in Montana. . . . Remember the Unabomber? He was the guy who played ‘Survivor’ by himself. He did it before it was fashionable.” (Jay Leno)
Stayin’ Alive: “CBS announced that the season finale of ‘Survivor’ is going to be 90 minutes long instead of the usual 60 minutes. Apparently, the contestants need that extra half-hour, because in the final episode, they’ll try to kill New York City rats. Tougher to kill--but meatier.” (Conan O’Brien)
Third Time’s a Charm: “Arnold Schwarzenegger tells “Access Hollywood” that he’s eager to do ‘Terminator 3.’ This time, the Terminator will face another artificial life form that just won’t stop: Al Gore.” (Daily Scoop)
All a Buzz: “Flies have invaded the N.Y. town of Naples. Experts say the flies were attracted by 200 tons of manure spread in a farmer’s field. If 200 tons of manure attract that many flies, wouldn’t the presidential campaign be permanently infested?” (Jerry Perisho)
Forgettables: “Jane Fonda tells the new issue of O magazine that posing with an anti-aircraft gun in Vietnam as a protest of the war was ‘the most horrible thing’ she could have possibly done. How quickly she forgets ‘Barbarella.’ ” (Ira Lawson)
