Waldo Joins the Polar Bear Club - 1/1/2008

Tuesday, January 1st, 2008

What a way to start the New Year off right.  Being Head Moron at The Rebel 105.9, I find myself just doing what comes Natural.  This is one of the Craziest things I have ever done…with my oldest son ‘Stone (13)…great things to share with the family!

 Need a Toon...see my buddy Ron

  …on a very snowy and wind whipin’ cold morning…

Even the Bravest Super Hero Strength of ‘Captian DJ” couldn’t resist a shivering moment at the lakes edge, as the winter wind blew over the water, freezing his manly nipples…

  This year I joined a bunch of daring swimmers, many were ‘Polar Virgins’…after some warm-ups, loud outburst of wind chill…we posed for a quick picture to capture the moment…forever a memory for generations to come…to ponder “WHY”…

 Comments from listeners/viewers: 

  • Wow… it has been a while since I have seen that many “Man Boobs” in one video.  J

  • A little known tidbit from the annals of American history.  The infamous line from the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson that “. . .all men are created equal” ,  was said to have been penned on the same day in which he joined the inaugural chapter of the Polar Bear Society of greater Philadelphia.  The original draft stated ” that at least in cold weather, all men are created equal”  and was duly edited by one Benjamin Franklin, who by the way, declined an invitation to join the winter-time aquatic festivities claiming that “he would much prefer to fly a kite in a thunderstorm.”   Go figure.

  • Don’t ever invite me to join that club!  That reminded me of a Seinfeld episode, “shrinkage”!

  • My friend, you are out of your mind!!!!!  Do you have pneumonia�
    today???????  Thanks for the laugh!!

  • You’re whacked-out dude!

  • I LOVE IT!  You and Stone “the gorgeous” are CRAZY! J

 

Peace in 08!
