TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT CAST TOGETHER AGAIN at VITELLO'S

Last night we all went to see Jim J. Bullock perform in his one-man cabaret Upstairs at Vitello's in Studio City. Directed by Michael Lorre; Musical Direction and pianist Gary Mattison; Presented by Michael Sterling, this is a supper club with a stage. Vitello's is the scene of the crime in Robert Blake's murder mystery. Blake's wife Bonnie Lee was shot outside the restaurant.

Jim J. Bullock was amazing, funny and wonderful. He has a great singing voice and really knows how to belt out a song.

Here is a photo of us last night, March 5. Notice the "ghost" hanging onto Bullock's shirt. Maybe it was Bonnie Lee...

Greg Louganis was there last night too. He is the Olympic Diver, author, actor and Aids activist. A wonderful man. I sat with Bruce Dent and Earlene Davis.

A GREAT EVENING. It was so good to be back with the cast of our wonderul show. If only Dad Ted Knight had been there!

FOCUS ON THE GOOD: ONLY THE GOOD REMAINS

TRUTH HAS SUBSTANCE. It has history and validity. A lie has no substance; it has to piggyback on the truth. It can't stand on its own.

Good, Truth, Love, Beauty are all definitions of God. Look for signs of good in each day. Only the good is real; even after the end of a marriage or friendship. Only the GOOD remains. The bad stuff has no validity, no history, no reality. Because good (God) is the only power. Learn from your mistakes and move forward. Do not hang onto guilt or regret. When in doubt, ask 'what would LOVE do?' What would I do if I had no self interest or self-centered fear?
