[NIN1211]

Awesome..Al Roker is the man...sorry honey..book ahead.." every picture of her she looks like someone pissed in her cheerios.."...only thing that could have made that more awesome..Roker asking if Dave was on the plane..

Feel bad for Alex tho..you know he was embarrassed..

..............................................nice .

I disagree, I think Roker's stated his case pretty clearly....

The guy's probably gotta get up at 4am to do the Today show in New York after landing in NYC late the previous night, and as he said, he wanted to get some sleep....

I don't think that Roker's the bad guy because of the poor planning by the VH camp.....

poor planning seems to be the Van Halen way

Some famous 70's or 80's groupie (don't remember which) said Al was the best lay of everyone (rockstar) she fucked! Must be that rhythm thing he's got going on.

His ex-wife Kelly got her sweet revenge ---- selling designer bath towels and robes using the Van Halen brand name!

Yeah that's pretty funny how gold digging ex-wives keep the former name.

But then again, Alex has been a notorious a-hole where Dave is concerned.... as if he's perfect.

Yeah I agree ---- I hope Kelly sells a bunch of designer towels with the Van Halen name stitched on them ---- Alex and Ed won't see a penny of those profits ---- gotta love that (and I bet Dave is laughing about it)

[SNIPER]

Sounds like Al knows how to pick em.

[78/84 guy]

I love how Howard eggs stories out of people. Made me laugh !!

[Little Texan]

Is it just me or does Alex's wife look a bit like Steven Tyler?

She looks like David Spade in drag to me. I know he's no prize, either, but you would think a rich rock star like him could find a decent looking chick that at least looked a little bit feminine.

Not that I have any gold to dig, but I specifically had the lawyer put in the divorce papers that she was to change her last name from mine. I don't know......just didn't want the only Sada getting laid to be her after the divorce.

As for Alex, I will NEVER criticize a mans choice in who he falls in love with. One night stands sure. But it doesn't matter how she looks to us. If she & Alex have something good together.....good for him. Apart from looks, her personality does seem very typical of the Los Angeles wife who hasn't ever done a thing to earn her own dime yet thinks her shit doesn't stink. The funny thing about the story is Alex didn't offer to trade her seats. he made her sit in the crappy seat while he took the good one. But I've always figured Alex as an asshole anyways.

Outside of a young Bertinelli (nice piece of ass in the early 80's) ---- Eddie makes dubious choices too:

Alex bought into the false notion that he is "the other half of Van Halen" and spent 35 years believing his shit don't stink. Him and his ugly gold-diggin wife are perfect for each other.

The "other half of Van Halen" has always been David Lee Roth ---- take him out of the equation in 1978 and VH becomes just another Night Ranger or Loverboy with an above-average guitar player.
