MADONNA VIDEO ENDS WITH IMAGE OF PRESIDENT BUSH WITH GRENADE IN HIS LAP...
It struck me as odd.
Come up with your own punchlines.
I mean 'True Blue' was always my personal favorite Madonna video - thanks to a slow-mo button on my VCR remote (this was when I was 15).
The head cold is getting a bit better!
The sun is out and it's Spring in NYC. Tough it is a bit nippy here.
Ate a bagel and banana for breakfast! Hope to eat lunch soon!
Bought some Capri Sun today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Like old times!
I am ten years old again!

It was a rather eventful night.
Most of the girls that worked in the MP Room at CBS failed to talk to me, my friend Todd, and of course 17 year old wunderkid Stuart. As if we weren't good enough to even say 'hi' to. EARTH TO GIRLS OF THE MP ROOM, "Don't do us any favors!"
GREG GUMBEL said hi to us. That was nice.
BUT CLARK KELLOG gets the COOLEST GUY AT CBS FOR REMEMBERING ALL OUR NAMES. MAJOR CLASS ACT, THIS CLARK KELLOG!!!!!!!!!!!
Lisa (who blew us off when she was with Kadous) was tonight without the company of an MTV VJs, and a bit nicer until my good friend Todd tried to take paper out of her fax machine. For no reason she went ballistic at Todd.
MEREDITH, THE COMMISSARY GIRL I WAS IN LOVE WITH, lost my love when she had a big fit upstairs because we couldn't find our boss. Way to lose your cool, NOW YOU REALLY LOSE!!!!!!!! YOUR PRIZE?..... THE FAT GUIDO THAT ALWAYS TALKS TO YOU.
Rich, the fifty something comedian, was all business last night and didn't tell too many jokes, he had to work more I guess. GREAT GUY, AND WHEN THE NIGHT WAS OVER HE DECIDED TO GIVE TODD AND I 5 STRONG MINUTES OF RAPID FIRE JOKES! GOOD STUFF, RICH.
BIG UP! I GOT MY PHOTO WITH DONNA, THE 50 year old Asian Commissary check out lady. Maybe most of the CBS girls don't dig THE WADE, WHO CARES! DONNA LOVES ME!!!!!!!!
Lastly, I got to meet Ernie Anastas, head newscaster at WCBS (NY local station), He is originally from Nashua, NH (I am from Manchester). We talked of the old country and laughed. I gave him cake and cookies courtesy of CBS Sports. He showed me and Stu his office and was just a real cool guy. MAJOR PROPS, ERNIE! AND THE GUY IS GREEK! YASOU!
That concludes the entries on CBS SPORTS. A little lengthy, but overall a fun two weekends. Thank you Eric for hiring me!!!!!! YOU ARE A GOOD MAN.

John Travolta has a new movie coming out today.
Am I the only one who wouldn't be caught dead going (and paying) to see that A-hole in a movie?
TRAVOLTA YOU SUCK!
DUKE LOST! YES! That's all I cared about. DUKE LOSING THAT IS!
Talked with a great comedian tonight. MR. RICH "something. He was great. He told me some great jokes.
Worked with 17 year old wunderkind, Stu, and of course my friend Todd. We were totally snubbed off tonight by this girl Lisa (who is usually pretty cool) when she was with her "STAR" friend KUDOUS from MTV (SORT OF PATHETIC CELEBRITY SIGHTING). I guess we're cool enough to talk to her when she's bored, but not when SHE'S GOT 'stars' in her eyes.
ONCE AGAIN CLARK KELLOG OF CBS SPORTS WAS REAL COOL AGAIN TO US little people.
I THINK I AM IN LOVE WITH A GIRL AT THE CBS COMMISSARY. NO JOKE!
March 27, 2003
Today is a great Spring day in NYC. I am working at CBS on the MARCH MADDNESS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT. Let's hope I see some big deals. Last week I met Les Monves (president of CBS TV ENTERTAINMENT). And when I say "met", I mean he walked by me.
My Boston Celtics continue to slide.
Can't wait to see 'Boat Trip' Man, that looks like the 'Citizen Kane' of
boat flicks.

*Question: What this site is in great neeed of?

Pathetic? YES! Am I excited? YES!
We all have tough days... rejection, office place hecklers, bums that throw nickles at you, JUST ROUGH DAYS.
But today, I HAVE ACHIEVED GREATNESS! 44 people (and counting) needed to see what I had to say. THEY COULDN'T LIVE ANOTHER MOMENT OF THEIR LIVES NOT KNOWING WHAT I ATE FOR LUCH (chicken quasadia - spelling is atrocious I know).
SO THANK YOU AGAIN. THANK YOU! PLEASE COME AGAIN! I just drank a Coke. Later I will drink water. I took 4 Cold Tylenols today. I failed to get any phone calls today. My left foot hurts. My hair looks great today (that's what the cleaning lady said).
Working hard.

CELEBRITY SIGHTING:
NEON Dieon Sanders, yesterday at NBC. Surprisingly, he did not recognize me as the guy who went out in a fierce rainstorm during the NFL preseason CBS studioshow this past August to get him Popeye's fried chicken. I got soaking wet, head to toe (ended up with a bad cold) just so he could eat his Popeye's (was thanked by my boss Bob, but not Prime Time himself).
March 17, 2003

March 15, 2003
Many a times Janine and I talk about one of our heroes... Bob Dylan all the time. She gave me a bunch of video tapes with great stuff (EAT THE DOCUMENT/ ----RENALDO AND CLARA)
March 14, 2003
ON the 1 Train going downtown yesterday.
In walks Bob Balaban (with these glasses may I add), and his hair was slightly frosted blond. He sat and was very quiet. He didn't think anyone noticed him. Well... I whispered, "Hey Bob." His head shot up looking at me trying to recognize me. I smiled and said, "Last year when you were on Conan, I got that chicken sandwich for you, remember?" He shook his head as if he were saying 'No, I don't remember you.' That just broke me, man. I was hurt. The train pulled into Sheridan Square in the Village and he jumped up (he's a small guy, real small guy) and walked quickly out of the train. As he passed me he said, "I told you I didn't want tomatoes on my sandwich... didn't I, you assh@le. I am allergic to tomatoes."
I giggled and yelled back, "I KNEW YOU REMEMBERED BOB. (pause) BOB! BOB?"
Thanks John for the beers (sorry I dumped my beers, sir).
March 13, 2003
Adam Nekamkin (Jerry Seinfeld look alike)
Corner of 55 and 9th
Smoking a cigarette
Just got to eat a free lunch from this place called Island Burger! I had a BBQ chicken sandwich and an extra thick milkshake (Black and white). THE LUNCH WAS EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!! (and free)!
I did not see Sarah Silverman today. But the cleaning lady is a very lovely lady with a quick wit.
March 12, 2003
Also today, while working at Comedy Central I met Sarah Silverman. I am not a huge, huge fan, but I do enjoy her comedy!!!! I told her I am from her hometown (Manchester, NH) and she flipped. I told her I bussed tables at 'THE BACKROOM', one of her favorite hometown restaurants. I then told her how it was great that she's been mentioned in JOHN CLAYTON's 'IN THE CITY' COLUMN from the Manchester Union Leader newspaper. Clayton is not a bad guy, but if you read some of his columns.... he mentions restaurants to get free meals etc. Sarah shook her head and had no clue who he was. By not knowing of this guy... well, that made my day as well.
THIS '29' BREAKS THE FORMER RECORD -'27.'
I feel both excited, proud, and ultra pathetic!
WADE LIVE!
AT THE 10:17 COMEDY NIGHT SATURDAY,
MARCH 15TH AT 10PM
