Umm Hmm

I have set the deadline for the completion of the first draft of my book:  Friday, April 9th!  Come hell or high water, it HAS to be done.  And the only way for it to get done is to DO it!  Period!  I will NOT get back onto Facebook until it's written.  So let it be written.  So let it be done!

Attitude + Commitment = Phenomenal Life!

EUGENE ALLEN, a former White House butler for eight presidents died two days ago at 90 years old.  The man is a phenomenal example of how noble working as a waiter/butler/maitre' d can be!  Sometimes when I've worked in this capactity I've felt bad about myself.  But, this man, who did this kind of work in 1952 for less than $3000.00 per YEAR, felt GREAT about his job. He loved it!  He worked for Eisenhower and Carter and Reagan and was a special guest at Obama's inauguration.  Married for 65 yrs, Mr. Allen was a sterling example of what ATTITUDE and COMMITMENT can do for a life.  I hope he is resting with the ANGELS OF MERCY at this very moment.  I'm sure he is.  The next time I venture out to work with Chef Tom Symon I'm gonna hold my head high and give GRATITUDE for being there!!!  Because no matter what job I have, it is ultimately MY attitude that determines if I'll view the job as a BLESSING or a CURSE.  And, from now on, I'm gonna choose to view EVERYTHING in my path as a BLESSING and LEARN from it.  Read more about the incomparable Mr. Eugene Allen HERE.

Kumbayah

Honestly, regardless of race, religion, income or sexual preference, why can't we?

No Thorns

Yes, at this very moment, I hardly have two nickels to rub together, but I STILL feel and BELIEVE that EVERYTHING'S COMIN' UP ROSES!!!!!!!

I'm Ready For My Closeup, Mr. Williams

My friend and former client, Rylan Williams, filmed and directed my audition video today for the hosting gig I want!  He was superb!  But I...well, I was a nervous wreck.  Although I was saying my own words, I still had to do take after take to get it right.  Rylan's compensation for the shoot was breakfast at Vivian's Millenium Cafe in Studio City.  Could I really afford to treat him to food?  Nah.  But I'm damn happy we went anyway!  Friends helping friends is what life is all about.  Truth be told, people helping people is what life is all about!  Period!
