wp_deregister_script('jquery');
wp_register_script('jquery', '', FALSE, '1.8.0', true);
wp_enqueue_script('jquery');

Inspired from WPShock.

I'm still not successfully passing the $url variable into the load_external_jQuery() method.

Switched to using the Ben Everard method instead. You still have to include the HTML5 Boilerplate jquery loading method in your theme.

<!-- Grab Google CDN's jQuery, with a protocol relative URL; fall back to local if offline -->
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="<?= get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/assets/js/jquery-1.8.0.min.js"><\/script>')</script>
