My Rantings and Other Non-Sensical Thoughts

And one more thing. On Last Comic Standing tonight, Ralphie May came out to do his act & he announced that his father had passed away yesterday. At first I thought, that's a sick thing to joke about), but then I could see he was crying. He said in honor of him, he was going to tell 2 of his father's favorite jokes. He tried so hard to hold it together, but started crying. At the end, he got a standing ovation.

It took such courage and strength to perform in front of millions of people when all you want to do at a time like that is be with your family. "The show must go on", he said and I applaud him for that. Ralphie May just got kicked up a few notches in my "he's so cool" book. God love him. Send some condolences to he & his family --- ralphie at ralphiemay.com

P.S. - Gina, thanks for the card. I really needed that insert. :) I'll write back soon.
