Comedian Bernie McGrenahan’s ‘Happy Hour’ Tour has students rolling in the aisles with laughter.  Now, Bernie is doing even more.  He is also changing the way students look at partying, by sharing his amazing life story.  A former ‘A’ student/athlete and high-risk drinker, who lost it all, beat the odds, and climbed his way back to the top!  Bernie shares all his ‘inside tips’ to when a party, stops being a party.  A stand-up comedy show first, followed by a powerful and inspirational message on how to achieve all your goals as a student.

I want to thank everyone who attended the HAPPY HOUR ‘Comedy with a Message’ Tour shows this fall !  What a great year it was, as so many of you sent thousands of incredible comments to this site!  Laughter and Learning, a lethal combo! As you can see I am home with my brother Sean, where we had a team dinner for my Softball team: The Diamond Dawgs recently.  Here is a pic from the Dinner.  Great friends Cal Tindal and Gary Graham are also in the pic with us!  My brother Sean is a great fan of Cal, but also a great fan of Matt Sykes, the character friend Gary played on the 1990’s hit show Alien Nation!   Peace out friends-  I will be back with another post later this week!

I loved returning to Cabrini after several years. We were a mighty and light crowd, who braved the ‘mandatory’ and suited up for a good time! Whew, I was working to make it tolerable for you! I love you students, who even if mandatory, made the best of a directive!  lol   I hope you had some laughs and also take a fair message with you!  I am posting pics shortly!
