Let The Day Begin

2006-12-13 - 10:48 a.m.

Gee, what an interesting morning...and I've only been awake a few hours.

Got an early text message this morning on my still-cracked phone telling me that Peter Boyle passed, at 71.

I must admit that about the only thing I've really watched him in is a few episodes of "NYPD Blue" and an episode of "Mind Of Mencia". I saw "Young Frankenstein" when I was very young, and don't remember much of it (except for the "Puttin' On The Ritz" segment, natch). I didn't watch "Everybody Loves Raymond". But I do know he was loved and respected by many. I think he did an ep of "Inside The Actor's Studio"; if that's so, look for it to repeat soon.

Regrets to his family.

Just now, I got a phone call from an old friend. Marilyn moved to Vegas awhile ago, and she was calling to get my new e-mail address. We chatted for a bit, and I brought her up to date on what has been happening with me.

It's always nice to hear from people you haven't spoken to in a long time.

===

Good Lord, I'm famous.

I'll probably add to it...maybe do a little bio. Please, folks - no malicious editing, okay?

Here's the video for today's title.

Anyone remember when the original MTV actually SHOWED videos??

===

Well, I need to go to Verizon and ask a few more questions.

Here's to you, my little loves, with blessings from above. Let the day begin.

Be seeing you.

Ah, of course. In college, we always watched it, and then my best bud and I always stayed up for 120 Minutes on Sunday night. Memories...
