Alan Cox Show To Hold Book-Burning at Panini's
"Fifty Shades of Grey" target of radio host's wrath. Take our poll and tell us what you think.
Most of the time, when you think of the book Fifty Shades of Grey getting people fired up, you think of suburban moms getting inspired for their own adult fun.
WMMS host Alan Cox has other ideas.
The radio host announced that he is hosting a book-burning of copies of the erotic novel at the Westlake Panini's. The event will be held from 8 to 10 p.m. Wednesday.
An Alan Cox Show assistant who answered the phone at WMMS confirmed the event, which was also posted on the show's Facebook Page.
WMMS regularly hosts events at the popular bar and grill.
Do you think Fifty Shades of Grey should be reduced to gray ashes? Or do you hate the idea of burning any book? Take our poll and tell us what you think in the comments!

Jim, Thank you. The great poet Heine also stated:
"Christ rode on an ass, but now asses ride on Christ."
I have seen too many get hurt when they post a comment and are attacked. You know the saying about Pearls Before Swine....
