Something about "all you can eat" signs that turns a guy's head. And I mean no disrespect to any female fans of glutony, but strickly speaking as a guy...sometimes it's fun just to pig out.
May 19th and 20th the Minnesota Twins are hosting back to back "All-you-can-eat" nights.
The Texas Rangers are in town and I'm guessing the Twins had to figure an exciting way to get fans to that yawner. Maybe they figured that while sleepy fans' mouths were open -they'd be able to cram some food in there.
For $33.00 you get an upper level seat plus all the hot dogs, pop, popcorn, pretzels, H20, (and I think ice cream too) you can eat. Sorry, no beer included in that BTW. We gave away free tickets this morning to someone who would make us proud and would promise to keep a food journal that night. So hats off to a gentleman named Mike who claimed to be 2nd in the world in corn-on-the-cob eating. Good enough for me. Although we could only take winners by phone - I did get this in my inbox today and I had to share.
"Greg, my brothers took the "all-you-can-eat" tagline to the extreme at the Godfathers pizza place in Windom, MN. Between the two of them and 3 buddies, they ate 154 pieces of Godfather's Pizza. They can no longer dine at that Godfather's." That's a little more than 30 pieces of pizza each if you don't have your calorie counter out. That rivals the three Wendy's Triples I ate after a swim meet when I was 19 in Rochester. 2 and 1/4 pounds of beef alone even without the bread, cheese, lettuce and ketchup thank-you-very much. Still proud of that one.
Enjoy yourself if you decide to go to the game. I'll be the one in the XXXXXL Hrbek jersey.
A Neti Pot is being expounded by Dr. Oz., Oprah's made for tv Tuesday physician. He claims you can clear out you sinuses and possibly reach some heavenly epiphany by pouring water in one nostril and out the other.
The expression, neti, literally means "neither this, nor that". And from what I can tell, yoga types will tell you it has something to do with spiritual eternity and harmony...blah, blah, blah. Thus neti, (neither this nor that), they say, will be used to disclose the lie and reveal the truth.
I'm here to tell you, if you haven't tried the Neti Pot, the truth is: Nothing I pour up my nose will get me closer to the Big Guy! The Neti Pot is evil. I tried it at 8:40am on the air this morning. And I still feel like I'm walking around with water in my ears and up my schnoz. It's like living with water up your nose from the swimming pool all day. Frankly, the Neti Pot sucks and somewhere the devil is having a good laugh. Of course he would be, he had to have created the damn thing.\
Thanks for reading my blog...thanks for listening to the Greg and Melissa show on KS95 and I'll see you on the radio!
President Bush appeared on DEAL OR NO DEAL last night to honor a military contestant. Meanwhile Laure Bush hosts an hour of the TODAY SHOW this morning. Looks like they are setting up a post-Presidential reality show...here's a clip...
THOSE DARN BUSHES
Laura: "GEORGE! Hurry up...you're gonna miss your appointment!"
George: "Be right there sugar...I'm just watching the end of that GREEN ACRES...Hey how can the Monroe Brothers be brothers when one of them is a guy?"
Laura: "It's a TV show George...it's not real..."
George: "Right...like Larry King (canned audience laughter). So what appointment do I have today sweet baby?"
Laura: "It's an interview over at the Wal-Mart...remember?"
George: "You bet...I'm gonna be one of them greeters...just cuz' you retire doesn't mean you're dead! "(more canned laughs)
Laura: "Oh George!" (audience applause!)
Thanks to our men and women who serve everyday! We don't recognize you all enough. And thanks for waking up to Greg and Melissa each day on 94.5 KS95, thanks for reading my blog, and I'll see you in the morning on the radio!
Okay, I'm not the most fit guy but I ran a marathon...once. So how come I walk 9 holes yesterday pulling my clubs on one of those wheel around cart contraptions and I feel like I should be in traction this morning?
Simple. When in doubt, blame the weather. Five months of being sedentary will do that, I guess. All across the twin cities families and folks were finally outside! But one thing I didn't think about...that I would hurt after playing golf! And it's a TOTAL body pain..forearms, hips, and legs.
And you know what's sadder? There aren't many Google images of injured golfers so here's the next best illustration how I feel this morning.
It's great to have Spring finally here! Make sure you get out and enjoy yourself and if you see me in the grocery aisle buying Tylenol...chances are for the next few weeks, I just played golf.
Thanks for waking up each morning and listening to the Greg and Melissa show on KS95 from 5a-9am...and thanks for reading my blog too! And I'll see you tomorrow on the radio!
Melissa in her Hollywood Hot Dish mentioned that Britney Spears videotaped herself melting down at home and has plans to publicly release those tapes. Hmmm, don't think I need or want to see that. But here's something I did find oddly fascinating.
Here's the 3 minute video of a guy trapped in an elevator for 40 hours!!! I don't know about you but I'd have gone NUTS!
In my opinion this guy handled it like a champ. Me? I'd still be curled up in the fetal position rocking back and forth crying like a baby. Anyway - tomorrow you could win enough to maybe buy your OWN elevator. Birthday Bucks at 7:20am for $5000!
Enjoy your day, thanks for listening and I'll see you on the radio!
