Jukebox Heroes, An Incredibly Dumb Criminal & I'm A Big Dope
I want to let you know about a show coming to Massaponax High School on Saturday, September 19. It's a show called "Jukebox Heroes" performed by The Mahoney Brothers. I know these guys. They're from New Jersey, and they put on one of the best "tribute" shows you will EVER see. This is not just a band. It's a show band. They do tributes to The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ricky Nelson, The Everly Brothers, Willie Nelson & Buddy Holly. Tickets are $15.00 each and WELL worth the money. More importantly, all the money raised goes to the Children's Miracle Network it stays HERE in our community. Tickets will be sold at the Bloom at Lee Shopping Center, Monday through Friday, 5 P.M. to 9 P.M. and Saturday & Sunday from 9 A.M. to 2 P.M. For more information, call 540 898-2324.
A couple of days ago, our ice machine stopped working. What a nice time of the year for that to happen. One-hundred degree temperatures and no ice. I called in a repairman, who came over today. The guy here was 10 minutes when he called me over and asked how long the machine had been off. I said, "Well, it hasn't been making ice for a couple of days." He said, "No, I mean how long has the machine been OFF?"
"Whadda ya mean?"
"There's nothing wrong with the machine. Somebody turned it off. That's why it's not making ice. I just checked it, re-checked and double-checked it. There's nothing wrong with the machine."
"Great!"
"Yeah, that's the good news. The bad news is I have the charge you $65.00 for the service call."
If you want to feel like a big dope, hand over $65.00 to a repairman because the reason the ice machine wasn't making ice is because either Rae or myself inadvertently turned the machine off. I begged the guy to tell me that he has had calls like this before, and he assured me he has had hundreds. Anyway, I'm trying to feel better about myself over this whole thing, so tomorrow morning, I'm going to ask you to call in with similar stories. If you've ever done something like this, call me tomorrow morning and tell me about it. We'll have some fun with this. My direct line into the studio is 540 710-1045.
Happy Birthday today to Andy Griggs.

He is 36 today.
He is David Perticone. He is facing serious jail time.
I guess you have to give this guy some credit. Al Gore would be proud of him. He's trying to help the environment by robbing houses within walking distance. There's something to be said for that.
