Hey - shit how come I found this site a day late and a fuckin dollar short?? You know - I got this blessing from a black friend of mine Darryl - Darryl told me I had LOTHN - which was Luck Of The Homeless N*...He was right.....
I tried to log on the other day and the forums were down so I sent a letter to Jennifer directly. Since the forums are up and runnin now - I'll post it here....
It such a shame that the ones we really WANT to have die DON'T and the ones we want to live forever leave way too soon. Rest in Peace Richard - you must be having one hell of a fuckin party up there right about now!! Lucky bastard! We'll catch up with you....someday...
Here's the letter.....
Dearest Jennifer
I know he’s gone. I know he won’t read this email. But I hoped that you would.
How’s that cliché go – you don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone? The world KNEW EXACTLY what it had with Richard. He couldn’t hide it – he didn’t WANT to hide it. His life became our laugher. No matter what the tragedy – “What’s this? Richard Pryor running down the street” or ”I'm a comedian, who had some success, and then I got MS”, he still found a way to make us smile. There was no ‘poor me’ from him. There was no ‘feel sorry for me and all the things that I have done.’ He was there – engine runnin’ and ready to go - until the bitter end.
I can’t tell you how many times he has made me, my friends, my family laugh. My daughters LOVE “The Toy”. “Stir Crazy” is one of my favorites but his stand up will forever be medium that makes me laugh the hardest.
Please, let him know that I will miss him terribly. Like his Web Site says “ I ain’t dead yet mother fucker”. He never will die…for those words will echo forever…..along with the laughter.
And suddenly a HUGE light bulb goes on over my head – and I always wondered where I got my ‘colorful’ language from….thanks Richard….
You’re a lucky lady. I hope that this letter helps to ease the pain and remind you that so long as those of us are still laughing, Richard will never die. So fuck you Richard – you still AIN’T DEAD mother fucka….
God bless….and happy holidays to you and yours.
Sincerely,
Jennifer
