A Few Words From Michelle
This weekend I had a most wonderful experience. I went to see Rain
Pryor, daughter of Richard Pryor. She did a one woman show, that
proved to be simply mesmerizing. Her show was a mixture of comedy (she
does a fabulous imitation of her Dad), nakedly truthful monologues
about growing up in a radical, mixed race family. Perhaps the most
moving number was a song she sang to her father, who passed away 4
months ago. The show is called "Fried Chicken and Latkes" since she is
half Jewish and half Black. Considering the craziness of her
upbringing, Rain is a talented comic, singer and actress who provides a
great night of entertainment. If you have a chance, do catch her act!

Good Thoughts
The
best index to a person's character is (a) how he treats people who
can't do him any good,
and (b) how he treats people who can't fight back.

Happiness
is to be found along the way, not at the end of the road, for then the
journey is over and it is too late. Today, this hour, this minute is
the day, the hour, the minute for each of us to sense the fact that
life is good, with all of its trials and troubles, and perhaps more
interesting because of them.

Thinking
by Charlie "Tremendous" Jones
- People who
know the most, know they know so little, while people who know nothing
want to take all day to tell it to you.
-
Self-improvement can be harmful if you are doing it to look better. If
you live your life in helping others look better, you'll be better
without trying.
- If you give
to get something, you're not really giving you are trading. Giving is
never to get, because you have it and are not aware of how much you
have until you give.
- Big people
are always giving someone credit and taking blame; little people are
always seeking credit and giving blame.
- Don't worry
about having to make a right decision. Make it and then work to make it
right.
- An attitude
of gratitude flavors everything you do. Learning to be thankful is the
golden thread woven through every truly successful life.
