    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT HUMOR ...

    "Through HUMOR, you can soften some of the

    worst blows that life delivers. And once you find

    LAUGHTER, no matter how PAINFUL your situation

    might be, you can SURVIVE IT.”

    ~ Bill Cosby

    HUMOR IS MANKIND'S GREATEST BLESSING!

    Ask Yourself - Have You Been KIND TODAY Alicia?
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS MONTH - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT KINDNESS ...

    One Million Acts Of Kindness is a goal. A goal for each person to individually perform One Million Acts Of Kindness in their lifetime. Can you imagine a greater goal for one's life?

    Most of us think that changing the world is impossible. The world is too big…too many people in it…too many problems to solve. Do you often feel this way? While it’s understandable, be assured that it is not true!

    NO ACT OF KINDNESS ~ HOWEVER SMALL IS EVER
    WASTED!  HOW MANY LIVES CAN WE CHANGE IF WE
    PRACTICE KINDNESS EVERY DAY?

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Richard

    Have a LAUGH TODAY Alicia!
     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT BARBIE AND KEN ...

    A man was driving home one evening and realized that it was his daughter's birthday and he hadn't bought her a present.

    He drove to the mall and ran to the toy store and he asked the store manager "How much is that new Barbie in the window?"

    The Manager replied, "Which one? We have 'BARBIE GOES TO THE GYM' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES TO THE BALL' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES SHOPPING' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES TO THE BEACH' for $19.95 ....'BARBIE GOES TO THE NIGHTCLUB' for $19.95 ....and 'DIVORCED BARBIE' for $375.00".

    "Why is the Divorced Barbie $375.00, when all the others are $19.95"? -  Dad asked surprised.

    "Divorced Barbie comes with Ken's car, Ken's House, Ken's boat, Ken's dog, Ken's cat and Ken's furniture."

    A DAY WITHOUT LAUGHTER IS A DAY WASTED!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

A performer/ composer/ arranger/ record producer, and avid workaholic since the age of 15, Alicia founded her independent record label, Champ Records, at the age of 17 under which she released her debut album, Stories of My Soul.
