The middle of last November, my buddy Jack Enyart passed away. This coming Sunday afternoon, January 26, I'm attending a memorial gathering for Jack here in Los Angeles. If you knew Jack and wish to attend, drop me a note and I'll see that you get all the information. There will be speeches and refreshments and a lot of good memories. That's this coming Sunday afternoon.
Yeah, I go to a lot of these and that causes me to hear a lot of people say things like, "This is what happens when you get old…all your friends start dying." Well maybe that's so but I wish folks would remember that it's also a matter of how many friends you have. The more friends you have, the more you're going to hear that some friend of yours has died. It's simple math.
If you want to cut down on the number of friends' memorial services you're invited to attend, it's real easy. Just have fewer friends.
