Back From Vacation, Living Longer & Kim Kardashian

Nice to be back after after a week's vacation, but of course, always a little hard to get back into the roll of things. My thanks to Brian Stroble for filling in for me. It was not exactly a restful vacation. As many of you know, I have a stage show I do, and every October, I perform on weekends at Six Flags in Jackson, New Jersey. I do 8 shows per weekend, so over the week, I did 16 shows up there. The weather up north, as it was here in the Fredericksburg area, was awful. There was no snow where I was, but there was snow just a little north of where I was. Parts of Pennsylvania also got snow, one of the earliest snowfalls on record for that area. In addition, you might have heard Sheila Quinn mention this morning that Friday was the coldest on record here in Fredericksburg. So much for global warming.In medical news, if you're a guy and would like to live longer, here's some advice from the Swedish Institute for Social Research: Marry a well-educated woman. The institute did extensive research, studying over 1.5 million people between the ages of 30 to 59. They discovered that men who marry well-educated women, women who, at the very least have a college degree, on the average, will live 10 years longer than those who marry women not as educated. What did don't know is WHY this is. The theory is that well-educated women are more likely to read important health news and repeat it to their husbands.

So, the good news is you'll live 10 years longer. The bad news is you'll have to spend those 10 years being nagged by your wife about your unhealthy lifestyle.

I don't think I buy into any of this. David Letterman married a well-educated woman, and I'm willing to bet he won't be living much longer.


Finally, for you Kim Kardashian fans: Kim has a new swimsuit calendar out. There are 16 photos in it. Apparently Kim thinks there are 16 months in a year.
Smart as a whip, that Kim Kardashian.
