Big Al’s Blog: 5 things…including “A minute with Mike”

I have no idea what’s going on here but I need answers and I need them now! A year ago, I noticed a Christmas tree stand was missing from my house and I never found it. it just vanished. Then about 4 months ago, there were 3 or 4 Chicken Wings that were half eaten that just appeared on my counter one night and my front door was open.

runnerI did my share of cardio this weekend. Friday, it was 5 miles. Saturday morning, I jogged 7 miles. And Sunday morning, I walked 4 miles before church. All of that and I haven’t lost a single pound. This is not good at all.

The Doctor doesn’t like to be mentioned in my blog or on the radio very much and I understand that. That kinda sucks since we spend so much time together. But that’s her choice. But at the same time, she realizes that it is what I do. We are supposed to be going to New Orleans together in a few weeks. There’s really no real reason for the trip other than just getting away for a bit and I think we’ll be meeting some of her friends there that she doesn’t get to see very often. That should be fun.

Speaking of friends, I was out to eat with her and some other friends on Friday night and a friend of mine happened to see us so he sat down for a second. I introduced him to the group. It was toward the end of our meal. My friend was sitting there no more than 5 or 10 minutes. The bill came to table while he was sitting there and he paid it. Did I mention that he didn’t order a drop of alcohol on our tab but for some reason, he just felt compelled to pay the tab of 5 or six people that he had just me. it was probably about a $350 tab plus the tip. Who does that? Of course we all thanked him…and the dude just walked away.

Hey Ladies, How would you like to spend “A minute with Mike?” I’m not sure if this is going to work but that is my proposal to the promoter. The former Heavyweight Champion of the world is coming to town and since I own a sports bar, I thought it would be cool if we could get Mike to stop by for an appearance. But I would like to have more than an appearance. How about an event? I told the promoter that I would rent a boxing ring and ladies could sign up to spend 1 minute in the ring with Mike Tyson. The top 5 “bidders” would win the chance to do it and all of the money would go to charity. I’m not sure if they will approve the idea…I’ll keep you posted. Of course, he can’t hit the ladies back. He would just be in the ring, ducking and dodging and hopefully the girls could get one or two punches in. We’ll see.

Other bad ideas that I have had for promotions that were a FAIL:

Bikini Pub Crawl for people that have cancer and stuff

Pajama Party, (i was the only one that wore pajamas)

Oscar watching party, come dressed as your favorite actor. (Pee Wee Herman and 2 girls dressed like the Avatar creatures were the only participants)

Ok, so maybe promotions aren’t my “thing.” hahaha
