I am still trying to come down from the rush I felt at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh! These students are so hip, year after the year. Allie, Megan, Ralph, and the 170 Team Leaders are AMAZING! Father Hogan, God Bless you my friend. I almost pulled you aside to share a little ‘confessions’ that have been weighing me down! 
You have to see this video I took of the Team Leaders with this new dance they put together for the freshmen to the song ‘Ghostbusters’! I stayed for an hour to watch the rehearsal. This will be a ’sneak preview’ before it’s major debut next week on MTV! Let me see if I can get this downloaded. If not, check back later. I am still learning this new BLOG stuff! I just learned to cut and paste, last week! LOL NOT!!!! Who you gonna CALL? TEAM LEADERS! I am in my hotel and SO happy to have an early night to myself to chill and talk to students. I have been averaging 5 hours or less of sleep the last ten days. All worth it, when the students come up to you after a show! ‘Walk the Walk’ Dukes! There is an amazing life out here, if you keep the focus! Yours, Bernie
Bernie man~ We love you bro.
Having us on your website so quickly shocked and impressed us all. As always, your routine has left us speechless. I’m the guy who took the pictures with you, they will be in your e-mail box soon.
Duquesne Loves ya buddy, keep up the superb work =)
James- Thanks bro- I am here working on this video! Having a little snag, but my web designer is going to talk me through it shortly. I love you guys also- I mean that. Check back for the video soon! I will wait for your pictures also! Thank you. Bernie

Bernie,
You’re amazing, man. This is the 3rd time I’ve seen you at Duquesne, and I always walk away knowing I’m lucky to have experienced your show. Thanks for hanging around with us afterwards. We love having you at Duquesne. Have an awesome day, and keep up the good work!

Bernie,
Thanks so much for the sincere (and fast!) post about Duquesne University’s Orientation. I think it was clear that your program has been talked about highly amongst the students and Team Leaders from the large attendance. This is my fourth and final year participating in Orientation and I know that I will carry your story with me for years to come. You have made such a difference, and we thank you for that!
Katelyn- and Katie-
I had too much fun today. Truly. there is something about your group- your energy, your attitude with students and each other. It is SO infectious, I just want to come back now and hang out more! I have to find some food first!! LOL I’m starved again! Oh shoot- I have half my $8.00 sandwich left in my backpack from Starbucks! LOL I better get that now- before it becomes CORN!!! LOL Please do take me with you, wherever you go. You are already inside, and a part of me. Sincerely. Write me, whenever you want, even after the college days! Love Bernie
I knew the what was coming because i heard you last year as a freshman and i still got choked up. thank you so much for stopping by! GOD BLESS!
Jesse-
It is ok to get choked up, some of my experiences were painful. BUT then I want you to think of what my life is like now without alcohol, and what I want your life to be like also! I want Happy Hour to pump you up! There is an amazing worlf for us out there. You just have to want it bad enough to go get it. God Bless you, my Jesse. Stay close.
DUKES-
It is 9pm Thurs eve, and I am still working on getting this video posted. Since my incredibly talented web designer just re-did this whole new design, I have to learn how to upload and download with the new tools. He is on a project right now, but is going to hook me up soon! Keep hitting back to see the GHOSTBUSTER FREAK-A-ZOID! LOL
Bernie
Hey Bernie!
I just wanted to say that even after the third of hearing your show, I still laugh at your jokes and tear up at your story. I can’t wait to hear it again! I know that I look forward to it every year for DU’s Orientation, and I tell my group to get ready for an AMAZING presentation. Great Job today, and glad to see you stick around for practice.
Much Love!

Hey Bernie!
I think I speak for all the other freshmen at DU in thanking you soooo much for an amazing and inspiring show. Nobody’s swung me between laughter and tears as quick you did just a couple days ago. You’re a wonderful person and a talented speaker – keep on spreading the message, because we’re out there, listening, and really taking your experiences to heart.
Best wishes and God Bless!

Luke-
My man! I will be doing this till the get to the ‘dirt’, in laying me down. Comedy may offer me greater exposure, maybe more cash, , maybe more ego. But when i get an e-mail from students like you, I realize HAPPY HOUR, is my life’s destiny. I will continue with the tour, and leave the rest to the others! Take care pal- Bernie
Bernie:
Absolutely outstanding performance. It’s an honor to be graced on your website. Love you man–see you next year!
