I want to party with you, cowboy TNT Vacations in Boston has introduced a new promotion called “Celebrity Come Along Trips” that give travelers the chance to hobnob with local stars in tropical climes. Sounds OK—in theory. Until we learn that a seven-night jaunt priced at $1,649 includes pre-season fun with ... the New England Revolution soccer team? I know what you’re thinking: New England has a soccer team? Another package prominently features radio personality Billy Costa (shown here—surely you recognize him) and stand-up comic Steve Sweeney (probably funnier than former SNL-er Julia Sweeney, but alas, about as famous). Meanwhile, a seven-night trip to the Dominican Republic, to hang with the New England Patriots cheerleaders as they shoot their swimsuit calendar, is also available. Somehow I think one of these packages will generate more bookings than the others. —Posted by David Gianatasio

This is the second reference to "Lee Harvey" from Stripes I've seen in 3 days.

David, are you reading MTLB regularly? Or is the Lee Harvey character making a comeback? Or is this just now becoming a trendy phrase?

For those who don't remember. it goes like this:

"Lee Harvey, you are a madman. When you stole that cow, and your friend tried to make it with the cow. I want to party with you, cowboy. If the two of us together, forget it."

Why the gratuitous dig at Julia Sweeney? She was the best thing on SNL for awhile, and I know that's not saying much, but jeez, she was funny. And she does a great duet with Jonathan Richman on his song, "Just Because I'm Irish." Maybe you're thinking of Terry Sweeney.
