Philadelphia Will Do  
 

Fun With Newspaper Leads

“Have a nice day” was not exactly what Jon Bon Jovi said to the former sales manager of the Philadelphia Soul, who alleges that the rock icon and his partners in the Arena Football League team have not paid him nearly $125,000 in wages and commissions

“It’s my life,” said Bon Jovi, claiming that he did not owe the sales manager any extra money. He added the manager did not do a good job and was “a little runaway,” frequently missing meetings, and would “never say goodbye” beforehand. He said they had a little saying at the office about this guy: “Wanted: Dead or Alive.”

Jovi added several other statements about his time with the Soul. “Everyday” and “Always,” he said, was this guy paid his money, adding the team even bought his wife a “Bed of Roses.”

Later, Jovi seemed distraught. “Say It Isn’t So,” he said, adding that he needed “Something for the Pain.” He did add, though, that he was going to “Keep the Faith.”

    Further, team lawyers said that the lawsuit is baseless and pretty much “Livin’ on a Prayer.”

    Rats, I forgot that one.

    Oh well, that’s “Real Life.” (A song on the EdTV soundtrack, apparently.)

    I’m still upset about the Soul folding. Bon Jovi told us he’d be there for us, those five words he sweared to us.

    Looks like that pointing woman and her BF are really enjoying the view.
