I always tell the girls, never take it seriously.
If ya never take it seriously, ya never get hurt.
Ya never get hurt, ya always have fun...
And if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends.

    He was on of the funniest comedians ever! You will be missed Richard Pryor.

    One of my favorite memories was going on a church retreat in jr. high, where Bon & I secretly listened to "Live on Sunset Strip" after lights-out, much to the chagrin of our other highly religious roommate who in all likelihood was praying for God to take him into heaven so he wouldn't have to listen to us rewind Richard Pryor saying "F-- you!" over and over.

    Phil that is hilarious.

    I remember Richard Pryor's role in The Muppet Movie as the balloon salesman. When he told Gonzo to "Take the whole fucking bunch, fuck yeah, it'll drive her wild," I nearly pissed myself. Of course, they edited out the blue routine he and Bob Hope ad libbed...

    Absolute greatness indeed. Be sure and check out the Comedy Central special on him. Ran Tuesday night, but I'm sure they'll repeat it.

    Someone whose humor most definitely stemmed from his personal pain.

    Miss Penny:

    I've already changed avatars since you posted this, and I'll be changing again on Sunday. Happy New Year...wherever you are.

    I'll be back soon, I promise, but once I do, I will not be updating as often as I once did. More on that (as I said) soon.

    xoxo,
