Bon Jovi to repair homes in Philadelphia
NEW YORK - When Jon Bon Jovi told former President Bill Clinton about a new plan to restore homes in one of Philadelphia's most blighted
neighborhoods, his pal was all ears.
ADVERTISEMENT
Clinton "was intrigued enough that he offered his services, and said, 'If I can help you in any way, don't hesitate.' And we didn't," Bon Jovi told
The Associated Press on Thursday.
Clinton stood beside the rocker in Philadelphia on Thursday as he announced his project, called the Phase V Homeownership Project, to renovate 15
decaying homes ? "messes of row homes," Bon Jovi said ? on two blocks on the city's north side.
Bon Jovi, co-owner of the Philadelphia Soul of the Arena Football League and creator of the team's charity foundation, teamed up with Habitat for
Humanity, the Saturn automobile company and a local charity for the effort.
The rock star received the City of Brotherly Love Award from Mayor John F. Street Thursday night. The presentation was made at the National
Constitution Center after the Liberty Medal ceremony, which honored former presidents George H.W. Bush and Clinton. Bon Jovi closed the event with a
performance of his song "Who Says You Can't Go Home."
"We are all, in fact, connected," Bon Jovi said. "We can make a difference."
He's been on a philanthropy kick lately. Last year, he and Bon Jovi bandmate Richie Sambora surprised Oprah Winfrey with a $1 million donation to her
Angel Network and Habitat for Humanity to build 28 homes in the Hurricane Katrina-ravaged town of Houma, La.
"I mean, it gives me great joy," he said of his charity work. "There's just too many haves and have-nots in the country."
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Have you ever noticed how crayons are a lot like M&M's? All the colors tend to taste the same.

I would pay money to have a front row seat at the Bad Vibes house if Bon Jovi showed up to paint. Something tells me it would be hysterical.

Remember the 3/4 sleeve t-shirts? I think i had a Judas Priest "Screamin For Vengeance" one. I may have had an Iron Maiden one as well, that was a
loooong time ago. I think I was 11. Just before I discovered The Cockney Rejects. It was the painter hat, took me back.
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

I loved those old shirts. I had a Judas Priest "Defender's of the Faith" shirt and a Maiden one but I can't remember what was on that one.

don't hate the player. BON JOVI kicks ass. Every jam out SLIPPERY WHEN WET? That cd kicks it beginning to end.
Besides he's doing good with his humanitarian efforts. Putting his time and money into helping people. Good stuff.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.
