I haven't written in here for a long time. Ellen and I came in late today because we were at Resorts last night seeing David Brenner. He was so funny!

(Author's note: I believe my mother got us a free hotel stay that night. It was a Sunday. I had seen David Brenner on either Johnny Carson or David Letterman and I'll never forget him telling this story about his son. His little son had broken something and David Brenner was angry at him. But when his son said, "Daddy, I love you bigger than the sky," David Brenner said to his son, "Go ahead, break the toys, break the world, do whatever you want," because he realized he couldn't be angry at his son anymore. So at the time, I was so touched by that story that I decided that David Brenner was my favorite comedian).
