The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy FallonA woman in Las Vegas was arrested after she threw a shoe at Hillary Clinton while Hillary was giving a speech. The woman was tackled, cuffed, and thrown into a police car. Then the cops said, “Normally, WE do that, Hillary, but thank you for the help.”

Next week Google will give the public the chance to buy its $1,500 Google Glass. Finally ending the stereotype that people who wear glasses are smart.
The Late Late Show with Craig FergusonThe Coachella Music Festival begins this weekend. It’s held every year in the California desert. It’s a whole weekend of peace, love, and $12 bottles of water.
If you’re a hipster who likes indie music, Coachella is the place to walk around saying, “I liked them before they sold out,” and “I liked them before you did.”
It’s close to L.A., so a lot of celebrities go to Coachella. Danny DeVito goes every year. And if you rub his head, you get three wishes.

It’s a great day if you love the moon. And who doesn’t love the moon? Al-Qaida.
Tonight’s a very rare occurrence. A blood moon eclipse. Doctors believe if you stare at a lunar eclipse for just three minutes, you may have smoked too much marijuana.
The blood moon is the second most impressive type of eclipse. Number one will always be a total eclipse of the heart.
The blood moon will be at its reddest at 3:07 a.m. That’s two hours from now. It is good that it is on at that time because everyone knows there is nothing good on TV after midnight.

The Late Late Show with Craig FergusonIt’s tax day today. Good news for the studio audience. You can deduct your laughter as a charitable donation.
Every year, the IRS collects over $950 billion in taxes. There’s more money coming at them than a stripper at Charlie Sheen’s house.
Let’s play “How busy do accountants get on tax day”? They’re busier than drug dealers at Coachella. Busier than someone doing sign language for Regis Philbin. Busier than Justin Bieber’s lawyer. Busier than gossip blogs when a late-night show’s host retires.
A new study says that an average person’s chances of getting audited by the IRS is the lowest they’ve been since the 1980s. Don’t get any ideas, Willie Nelson.

Speaking of religion, the Pope let two 11-year-old boys ride in the Pope-mobile with him. Afterwards the Vatican told the Pope, “That’s not the kind of publicity we’re looking for.”

The Rolling Stones celebrated today by partying late into the afternoon.
There is a new survey out today, the best and worst jobs in America. The worst job is lumberjack. Being a lumberjack must be tough. For one thing, you have to wear plaid. And that is so 1990s.
There are a lot of shows about lumberjacks, like “Ax Men” on the History channel. They’re all over cable TV: “Bark and Recreation.” “Saw and Order.” “The Branchelor.” “The Wood Wife.” “Two Oak Girls.” “The Big Branch Theory.” “Game of Pine Cones.”

It’s a great day for Victoria Beckham, also known as Posh Spice. It is her birthday. You know who also has a birthday? The Ford Mustang. Now the Ford Mustang and Posh Spice are very different, of course. One’s a sleek machine that’s been redesigned a couple of times over the years but is still a great ride. And the other one is a Mustang.
According to a new survey, being a mathematician is the best job in America. So congratulations, nerds.
I’m announcing my retirement. Well, just until after the commercial.
