This is the first of my weekly Friday “Out In the Street” posts (named after Bruce Springsteen’s ode to Friday “Out In the Street”) where I take a break from discussing business and turn my attention to other topics of interest – politics, pop-culture, sports, ect.
He is no Wade Boggs: WNTP in Tampa reports that Sheriff’s deputies arrested a man who became belligerent after drinking 48 beers on his birthday. James Taylor (not the singer) told Sheriff’s deputies he had “about 10 beers to many” after drinking 48 beers to celebrate his 48 birthday. I guess if he was 38 he would be in the clear. As amazing as this story is, it pails in comparison to former Hall of Famer (and ironically former Tampa Bay Ray’s third basemen) Wade Boggs’ claim that he once drank 64 Miller Lites on a cross country flight to Seatlle.
Raise a Glass: Each week I will ask that you raise a glass at your local establishment to a deserving individual or individuals. Speaking of the Boss, I ask that you raise a glass to E Street Saxophonist Clarence Clemons who suffered a stroke this week and is recovering. Get well soon Big Man.
See you next week.
