Memorial Day, what is it, and when did it start ?
05/27/2023

Memorial day weekend is traditionally the kick off of summer. But it's more than that. It's a tradition and holiday that originates back to the end of the civil war. It was originally Decorations Day, and was made an official federal holiday in 1971. Now known as Memorial Day. A time to come together and remember those who gave their lives in defense of America. It started with a tradition of decorating the graves of those that sacrificed. This Memorial Day I'm going to have more thoughts of those that sacrificed than thoughts of Summer and barbecues.

Bodybuilding put me on the road to health and fitness
04/28/2023

I Immersed myself in bodybuilding magazines when in high school, in an effort to get bigger. I was so skinny and determined to add size, I learned all I could from body building and power lifting magazines. I then went to work putting my knowledge into practice. I soon realized I didn't have the genetics to compete as a bodybuilder. And when I got to California, I learned the realities of steroids. But learning about bodybuilding put me on the path to health and fitness. Principles and practices that I still use today.

New York City
04/21/2023

I have been going to New York since 1983, when I visited to take the New York City Police test. Alba and I both love New York City and have been going together during Christmas since 1999. We love seeing Broadway Shows, and getting into the Christmas spirit. We hesitated to go last December, but we saw very little homeless, and because of the large police presence in Manhattan felt very safe. We still love visiting New York for a few days at a time.

I Thank My Bullies
03/17/2023

In this episode I thank my bullies for my physical fitness, and my standup comedy career.

I started memorizing comedy routines I saw on tv, and performing them in school. I would do my comedy routines in class, and in the lunchroom. I read all the body building magazines I could get my hands on, to learn how I could  get bigger. If i...


I was a reluctant leader
03/10/2023

I was a reluctant leader as a member of the L.A. Sheriff's Dept. I gook the leap and self educated myself on leadership. I took advantage of the leadership opportunities the department offered me.

It's About Relationships
03/03/2023

It's all about relationships. Get your relationships right and you get your life right. In fact it will empower the law of sowing and reaping. Be constantly creating relationships. Some will start, some won't, some will grow and down the road you will reap a great harvest. We never know which ones will germinate into great things. Not knowing which, helps us be constantly creating relationships without regard for which will reap a harvest.

I Dreamed, and Paramount Pictures paid me $9,000 to do it
02/10/2023

In 1982 I watched a comedy special DVD titled "Live on the Sunset Strip" starring Richard Pryor. I loved this comedy special and watched it over and over again. I loved the way the stage looked, and the crowd watching Richard Pryor. I saw that it was filmed at the Hollywood Palladium, in Hollywood Ca. I said to myself, "I'm going to perform at the Hollywood Palladium."  I had no reason to believe that ever could happen. A short sixteen years later, I was performing on stage at the Hollywood Palladium, for my own comedy special. Paramount pictures was doing t...


The 5th Habit
02/03/2023

Today I talk about the 5th habit, from the best selling book by Steven Covey, "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People." The fifth habit is, seek first to understand, then be understood. It's the skill of active, or empathic listening. The first day I put this into action, I instantly became a better communicator. It's not a one day fix, or skill. But you will get immediate positive results. It's a skill you can continue to hone the rest of your life.
