Mike and Mike and Jesus

While listening to ESPN radio this morning I heard Mike Greenberg wish Peter Gammons a Merry Christmas.  Two things immediately came to mind.  It was good to hear that people in the media will occasionally still say a centuries old holiday greeting and that the only time I heard it this year was from a Jewish guy from New York.  Is this some new angle on the only black people can say the “n” word idea?  If you are a Christian you can’t say it because you’re imposing your intolerance on others but if you are a Jew, that’s fine because you’re going home to light a menorah later?  Or could it be that a Jewish guy was talking to another American that likely celebrates a holiday celebrated by a gigantic majority of the country and wanted to wish him and his family a good Christmas?  Probably.  Hmmm Defender of my faith, Mike Greenberg?  That’s fine.  I’ll take it where I can get it.   

Merry Christmas!

Skydiving no longer does it for you?

Calling all of those thrill seeker types! 

Fresh off their “burning down the house” performance in Rhode Island, Great White is taking their thrill ride overseas.  This is really kind of like X-Games for 80’s metal fans.  SUNDAY, SUNDAY, SUNDAY!  BE THERE!  AS GREAT WHITE PLAYS LIVE!  

In my stand-up days, I got more boos AND laughs with a bit about these dudes.  It was tasteful.  As tasteful as a stand up bit about Great White burning mullets off of dozens of fans can be.  

I can see the concert flyers now…  GREAT WHITE Live!  What are you?  Chicken?    

Great White announce the European tour in support to the release of their album Back To The Rhythm.
