The Green Swimsuit, The Lombardi Quote & Trouble At Starbucks

I hope you had a nice weekend. Mine was AWFUL. I was working a comedy club in New York Saturday night and had to fly out of Dulles Saturday afternoon. What was supposed to be a 40-minute flight turned out to be a 5-hour flight. I could have WALKED to New York quicker. The return flight yesterday was better, but not much.

Last week, I told you about the guy in Ohio who was arrested for "menacing and harassing" women as they exited an ice cream shop. What made this particularly disturbing is that the guy was wearing a green, one-piece, women's swimsuit. In addition to the "menacing and harassing" charge, he was also charged with partially exposing himself. That's true. In fairness to him, those high, French-cut, one piece swimsuits are notorious for wardrobe malfunctions. His name is Kevin Miller. He's 41 years old.
Here he is....................................................and here he is at the time of his arrest. All of this, of course, is a classic textbook example of how NOT to get a woman to share her ice cream with you. And ladies, here's the really good news................HE'S SINGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mentioned Vince Lombardi on the show the other morning and recited his famous quote: "Winning isn't everything. It's the ONLY thing".

Leslie, from our sales staff, pointed out to me that I made the same mistake many people make. I mis-quoted Lombardi. He didn't say, "Winning isn't everything. It's the ONLY thing. The actual quote is, “Winning isn't everything, but the will to win is everything.” My personal favorite Lombardi quote is, "We didn't lose the game. We just ran out of time." In addition, Vince said a lot of other things, many of which we can't repeat on radio or in this blog.

Starbucks rang up double charges on millions of customers over the Memorial Day Weekend due to a computer glitch. My guess is that since it WAS Starbucks, nobody noticed.

"I'll have a Double Grande Latte Cappucino Supremo Mega Grandissimaximo Giganto de Humongo-Rama-Lama-Ding-Dong.....................decaf. How much is that? Forty-two dollars? Here you are."
