Hi. I just got back from the WLS Stars on Stage event downtown, and it was great. I was able to meet, shake the hands of, and get autographs from almost everyone there minus Rush Limbaugh, who obviously did his 30 minute shtick and split.
Even got pictures of me with a few people, including Jay Marvin, the beautiful Eileen Byrne, Roe Conn and his crew......I'll post those as soon as I get them....
...two notable mentions...one was Tony Snow. One of my favorite guys, he is kind of the Limbaugh or O'Reilly type but down to earth and you can take him seriously on many issues. He came and visited as he has a show on WLS on Saturdays. Oh, and yes, obviously he is a correspondent from non other than, the FOX News Network, where our own Astro Joe was just on.
...second notable mention was George Noory...that's right, the AM Coast to Coast guy. Got to meet him, shake his hand, and get an autograph, minus the photo because I wasn't thinking of it at the time. He was onstage for a bit and it was great, because while every person on stage talked about politics, he came up and totally changed the entire mood by bringing up microbiologists who turn up dead, certain information on the space program that suddenly disapears, and scientists who vanish and are never heard from again. Great stuff.
Afterwards we went to Carson's and got free beer, root beer, and cheesecake all paid for by WLS (we paid for our steak and ribs, but free dessert and beer??!! How could I miss it....) and Jay and Eileen were there too, so we actually walked up and got to talk, argue, and get better pictures with.
Overall it was a great afternoon/evening.
