It’s been a busy week! Wednesday, Gail and I attended an event at “The Parade Company” - the big warehouse where they design and construct all of the Floats you’ll see in the annual Detroit Thanksgiving Day Parade down Woodward Avenue. While I was there, I was interviewed by Channel 4’s Steve Garagiola. (He’s the one wearing the giant foam animal head. I’m not sure what kind of animal, exactly) We talked about my being named the co-Grand Marshall of this year’s parade. Just click below to watch that interview.
Then Thursday, yes THURSDAY night (I can do these things now that I retired) Gail and I, along with Big Al and his girlfriend Claudia… I mean his wife Debbie, went to see Kathleen Madigan at Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle in Royal Oak. As always, she was fabulous… confirming my belief that she is far and away the funniest comic in the country. (With the possible exception of the U.S. Congress as a whole). Below are some pictures of us after the show. If you want to see Kathleen - she’s in town through Saturday night - call the Comedy Castle at (248) 542-9900 or go to comedycastle.com
(Thanks so much to Carolanne McClelland for the photos!)
NOTE: Big Al told me last night that he’s recently dropped 15 pounds… That must be why he didn’t have to wear his underpants-extender! You be the judge! (No comments about my belly please!)
Have a great Autumn weekend and we’ll see you back here on Monday!
