Make sure you join me this Thursday morning. I'll be making the announcement as to who the headline performer will be at this year's Aquapalooza, Saturday, July 25 in Fairview Beach. I also hope to have that performer with me on the phone line this Friday morning. Stay close for details.On this date in 1994, twelve miles of highway in Waverly, Tennessee became Loretta Lynn Parkway. That sure beats Howard Stern getting a rest stop on the New Jersey Turnpike named after him (True).On this date back in 1975, Cher married Gregg Allman. It was a very successful marriage. It lasted 9 days (even mine have done better than that).I went into my bank this afternoon and the the tellers were like, "Hey, what was the answer to More's Mystery this morning? We had to come in to work. We missed the answer." More's Mystery did go a bit long this morning. Finally, someone called in with the correct answer: The Bold & The Beautiful.The Michael Jackson fiasco continues to heat up. Michael and his dad, Joe weren't exactly close, but yesterday, Joe and comedian Al Sharpton held a press conference. Joe plugged his new record label,then announced that Michael's funeral will be open to the public because "Michael would've wanted it that way".YEAH, RIGHT! MICHAEL WAS A REAL DOWN-TO-EARTH, REGULAR JOE WHO LOVED MINGLING WITH THE PUBLIC, WASN'T HE? IF JOE JACKSON HAS HIS WAY, THEY'LL CHARGE ADMISSION AND SELL T-SHIRTS.
Meanwhile, Michael's mother has secured temporary custody of his 3 kids. She plans to request permanent custody and the right to raise them.........because who's better at raising kids than the mother of the Jackson family?
I mean she did such a great job with the first batch!
