Motion Sickness, Booming Gun Sales and a Live Remote Broadcast
"How's Pauley?""Oh, Pauley. You won't see him no more"That was our movie clip this morning. Congratulations to our winner, Laura from Stafford, who knew that brief dialogue occurred in the movie, The Godfather.It was Clemenza who said, "Oh, Pauley. You won't see him no more". It's not exactly grammatically correct, but gangsters aren't exactly known for their eloquence. And Pauley, it seems, had trouble with some piano wires. I HATE when that happens.Happy Birthday today to actor/comedian Sinbad. He's 52. Russell Johnson, the guy who played "The Professor" on Gilligan's Island is 84 today, and Mackenzie Phillips is 49. Ironically, that's the same number of times she's been in and out of rehab.What else you missed this morning: The story of the guy in Oklahoma very drunk at a bar. First, he spilled beer on the pool table. The bartender asked him to pay his bar tab of $32.00 and leave. He gave her a credit card, but the card was declined. She called the police on him. The cops arrived and ordered the drunk to pay his tab. He was so smashed, he reached in his pocket and pulled out a bunch of gum wrappers and starting counting them as if they were cash. He then wound up scuffling with the police and finally got himself arrested for disorderly conduct, public drunkenness and assault on a police officer.I think this is a great publicity story for the bar. Where else can you get THAT drunk for only $32.00 ??!!In health news this morning, we reported that according to www.Elements4health.com, Pine bark apparently reduces air/motion sickness in passengers by 50%. It's probably true. I fly a lot and I've NEVER seen a beaver throwing up on a plane.I want to thank everybody who came out to see us this past Saturday at Gander Mountain on Route 3. They were telling me that gun sales are soaring due to fears that President-Elect Obama will crack down on gun ownershipm so a lot of people are running in to buy guns. Well, he did say he would jump start the economy.I got home today just in time to see President-Elect Obama and his wife Michelle visit the White House for the first time. President Bush was a little confused. He thought they were Tiger Woods and Beyonce.Speaking of which, we found out today that Michelle Obama's mother will also be moving into the White House to help with the care of the Obama girls. So, the White House will be home to Barack Obama, his wife, Michelle "Obama Mama" Obama and Michelle Obama's mom, Grandmama Obama. It's going to get a little confusing.Hey, join me tomorrow for our big Veteran's Day live broadcast from North Carolina Furniture Connection in King George. I'll be out there from 12 noon until 3 and I look forward to seeing you out there!!
