    To my Father. Even though you have crossed the plane, you will always be with me.
    You were not just my Father, but my hero. My life has been a poor attempt to be like you
    You taught me music, vocals, and how to fight. I can only hope I am half the man you are
    When I close my eyes I can see you. And finally, Thank you Dad. for everything.

    He was very cool. I never could stand the host of the Gong Show (can't remember his name). He was obnoxious, but Gene was pretty cool.

    Didn't Chuck Berris claim to be in the CIA or something? LOL

    Thank you. I couldn't remember his name. He was just so awful on that show. He must have been hepped up on goofballs when they filmed it.

    He was like a human train wreck. I remember my friends and I watching it and dying laughing like we couldn't believe a grown man was not only doing that, but getting paid to do it. LOL Its like one of those dogs who were so ugly you just had to love them because no one else but God would.

    RIP, Gene - he was fun to watch.
    I think maybe Chuck invented "speedballs'. Cocaine is a helluva drug; and that's when you just take it by itself.

    Is that the show where the host always looked so stoned? And dated Juicy Jaye P. Morgan? Funny stuff.

    RIP Gene.

    Looked stoned?

    Yeah - that's the one. It had to all be an act though; CIA operatives can't be doing stuff like that.

    RIP Gene. Go on and dance for the Lord now.

    What I remember about Chuck Barris was his habit of clapping every time he finished a sentence. Then after he would clap, the audience would clap. IDK if it was a way for him to focus on what he was supposed to say or what but he was high or drunk for real. lol.
