Headstone for Howard Stern


"King of All Media" Howard Stern had his annual "Secret Santa" party among his staff this morning on his Sirius/XM satellite radio show, and Stern received the wackiest -- and creepiest -- gift, if you could call it that.

And it was purchased in Jersey City, at Burns Brothers Inc., which makes head stones and monuments.

One of the show's staffers, Ted Sommer, an associate producer, got Stern a beautiful, gray 350-pound headstone with a drawing Stern engraved on it.

The gift, while extremely attractively and unique, did not go over well with Stern, who promised that it would never be used. Other staffers suggested selling it on eBay to raise money for charity.

Sommer, from here on out to be known as Tombstone Ted, argued throughout the show that it was a great gift and not in the least bit creepy.
