Hi,

I don't know ... I don't feel so empty inside that I have to have a hero or God to help me along, and would rather not even consider a whole lot in that area.

But some special folks, I would say Chuck Jones (Bugs and Daffy) and Spike Milligan ... I'm not sure that anything I asked would make any sense to them ... even making carrot jokes, or trying to excite Spike with some joke or another, when he might enjoy doing a child story instead ... which I would gladly help him start and continue on!

After that? Ask Guy Guden to get on the stage and act some more ... he was a magnificent actor, but used up his talent doing voices and having a riot on radio and forgot his really special gift ... he might have given up because he really wanted to do film ... and his best? Made Steve martin look like trash in doing Closeau ... no one could do Closeau better than Guy, except Peter! 

Nothing else matters to me at all ... I think I have heard all the music the universe has to offer, and all the literature and art ... it all now feels like there is nothing new under the sun or over the rug, except dust!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

So now I don’t really have heroes!


since you are new to this site you probably don't know how to post links, so I will help you with that

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

I, at any rate, am convinced that Einstein does not play dice with a metaphorical God, even if it also metaphorical dice.

It was bittersweet, but I saw Mort Sahl four times (twice in 2014, twice in 2016). The first time, I gave him my first book and first CD, autographed, and he autographed the autobiography I had of his, with a nice message. The next three times I talked to him, but the REAL question I wanted to ask was something to the extent of "Could we meet for lunch, anywhere, anytime?" - but the owner of the theater and the producers were in the green room, and I was quite nervous, and quite Xanaxed out... My regret is that he's 92, and I doubt I'll ever visit California again -- too far.
