I’m So Excited!
I am so excited! I just got off the phone with a friend of mine who is an attorney and manages famous artists in music. She ran an idea by me…..she wants to do an interactive Broadway show about my life. The seats on the ground floor will be removed so people can work out […]
Keeping Busy, part 2
My third puzzle was the famous painting of Sunflowers by Vincent Van Gogh. The procedure was the same. Find the edges and work your way until you saw these flowers were just picked. I did a lot of portrait puzzles of famous people, Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. Now I got a little more bold […]
Can You Guess?
I received a beautiful bouquet of peonies… pink roses, and white roses, in a stunning vase. I had no idea who sent this present to me…can you guess? It was from Dr Phil and his wife Ms Robin. I had mentioned them in a previous message. So I think someone told them what I said. […]
Who’d have thought?
Who ever thought that this little baby in the stroller would grow up to be….me! That’s my brother Lenny who tried to push me down the steps. He wanted to be the only child! LOL Love, Richard

I love watching her delivery. She is very serious and at […]

Funny Boy
The name of my biopic is…Funny Boy. It starts with me selling praline candies in the French Quarter and how I developed my sense of humor and love of food. Love, Richard

I called him every other day. He was losing weight rapidly. He lost over 700 pounds. Michael’s dream was to be in […]
