Good Night

Smiles seem to be...baked into us. Babies smile almost as soon as they're born...some smart guys in white lab coats, even claim babies smile BEFORE they're born. Those same smart guys say smiling lowers your heart rate so it will keep ticking longer. Actually I have a...contrarian...experience to that one...the first time my Lady Wonder Wench smiled at me, my heart rate went through the roof. But of course there are exceptions to every rule. Blind people smile even if they were blind at birth, so they've never seen a smile. I swear I've seen dogs and cats smile. Different animals have different ways of saying "Hey I'm happy." Ducks and I guess most birds can't smile, because they have those solid beaks. So ducks and most birds shake their tails when they're happy. I've seen some pretty ladies do that too when they're happy. Very nice. We're learning more and more about animals. A couple of weeks ago, I saw an article that said cows have friends. Probably farmers with warm hands. Speaking of cows, I saw

This podcast is about an "Oh My God" that was said by my friend Joe Goodavage who was flying with me one day when he saw a rainbow on top of the clouds. And it's about flying my kids around the Statue of Liberty, and watching them wave to the pretty lady. And it's about a very special night flight...watching the "Touch me looks" flickering below, and watching people love each other and in some cases kill each other. And it's about our Grand Daughter Cassie, jumping up and down on Block Island to see if it would disappear. And it's about why I'll never see these things again.

Time Flies, so you want to be sure to be your own pilot. I started thinking about that when I dropped my alarm clock and it broke. I'll replace it, but until the new clock arrives...I still have to get up at a reasonable hour of the morning. I'm the responsible pilot. There's some story in here about a vasectomy...one little slip there and a raging bull of a guy quickly becomes a pussy cat. And there's a plug in here about my buddy Bob's new business book called "Better Management Through Finger Pointing." Bob is a Vice President, but he's got a sense of humor anyway. And there's a question here that I think you should answer. "What would you do if you were certain you couldn't fail?" I'll bet you would come up with some interesting ideas on that one. Give a listen please.

Something unusual is going on in your head. There's a famous Hypnosis experiment in this podcast, and it will amaze you. The results of this experiment opens up the question of how many parts of you play important roles in your life. And...there's a story about having dinner with your Ex that might hit home. Give a listen please.

When you're so uptight you're out of control, that's called BURNOUT! Burnout is stress that keeps repeating itself, over and over and over again. It probably started when you were a kid and you wanted to bang your fork against your glass, shove your peas into your pocket and sing Greensleves at the table. Know why you can't do that? "BECAUSE I SAID SO." (That's a voice from your past.) Why are there lots of drinking songs, but no eating dinner songs? Give a listen to this podcast. You'll find a way around this problem.

I just made it. I am sitting here in my big, comfortable, manly, black leather poppa chair in my living room, and that is very fortunate... because when I was standing in the middle of the room a few minutes ago, something in my right knee was suddenly...displeased. My right knee said something that sounded distinctly like..."Click" And it became immediatly obvious that it was up to my left knee to get me over here...which it did. Maybe I'll change my name to skippy if I keep hopping around on one leg like that. It seems like everything is clicking for me these days. My knees, my elbows even my neck. This time I heard somebody who sounded a little like me make a very old man sound as he dropped into this sitting position. (drop) What all of a sudden happened to the kid who'se lived inside me all these years? Big Louie, the hero of my book staying happy healthy and hot... available at amazon dot com...shameless plug...Big Louie has lots of statements for dealing with this situation. He says, you're not old

My pilot buddy Eric's romance has just crashed. And he says he's in a never ending depression...forgetting everything Big Louie has always said...even "You can never tell when something wonderful is going to happen." I've got to get him to turn his Christal balls around...get him to get focused on a possible...if not totally probable...future. His problem isn't pandemic related...but it could be.

Irony is not the opposite of wrinkly .Wrinkly is not something I looked forward to getting. But this podcast claims wrinkles don't hurt. What do you think? Please let me know at Dick@DickSummer.com.

This podcast is about sex and relationships. What do I know about sex, and relationships? I'm not a doctor. Not even a Phd kind of doctor. I'm not an expert...but that was exactly my point. I've made the same damn dumb mistakes most of you have made. And I'll make more of them. I've kept track of some of mine to help us...you and me...avoid making some of them again. I keep trying to understand why we keep punishing ourselves with guilt and even loneliness... why some of us never get to share all the love we were born to give...and to get. I got into a lot of trouble at some of the radio stations I worked at for putting those lovin touch stories on the air. You want to know why I did it? No? Well let me tell you anyway. Some of the guys I worked with were good at using radio to make "Theater of the mind"...Wolfman Jack, Don Imus, Cousin Bruce Morrow...but I wanted to take it one step beyond that. I wanted to make radio "Theater of the heart."

This Saturday is National Condom day. It's sponsored by the Trojan Condom company. That's an interesting name for a condom company. Trojan. It reminds me of the famous trojan horse...which managed to sneak into a closed up castle...that Trojan horse made it possible for a bunch of guys to have a very sexy day. National Condom day is this Saturday. Can you imagine the parade with all those floats? Unfortunately, lots of women will only fake celebrating National Condom day. My Lady Wonder Wench says lots of women fake orgasms because lots of guys fake foreplay. Probably the most famous one liner about orgasams is attributed to Milton Berle. He supposedly said, "Two guys are talking...and one of them askes the other...'do you and your wife have mutual climax?' And the other guy says, 'no we have Prudential." Badda Bumm. Just calling that 7th day of the week Saturday is giving praise to a pagan god, by the way. And as you know, pagans were pretty sexy. In fact all the days of the week are named after sexy pagan

Some stories are sexier than others. This podcast is about Mr. Story Man's stories. They're sexy. So sexy that my Lady Wonder Wench lets him un-dress her for bed every night so she can enjoy another of his sexy stories. And I don't mind a bit. Give a listen so you can understand why I don't mind.

What are your biggest memories? Please send them to me at Dick@DickSummer.com We'll use some in next week's podcast.

In our constant struggle to save the world, and keep Victoria's Secret from falling into the wrong hands...the ones with the cold fingertips, this podcast encourages you to launch your whistle missile...and it explains how to do that. So pucker up.

Grabbing the Goodies is about taking the good stuff in your life right away instead of taking a chance on letting the window of opportunity close on your fingers. Windows of opportunity usually come in 3s...like they did this day for me. Jump into this podcast with me. But do it now...before it's too late.

Time to fight truth decay. I am sitting here in my big, confortable, manly, black leather poppa chair in my living room, and I'm reading a note from my friend Paul. He says, Annie and I are pregnant. BS. Annie is pregnant and Paul you're scared spitless...because now Annie wants to actually get married. Fight Truth Decay with all your might, Paul. Honesty = the truth + maybe is what it says in my book Staying Happy Healthy And Hot...available at Amazon dot com...shameless plug. The truth here is that Paul has been hard at work for almost all year...trying...so hard...to get Annie pregnant. But the maybe here is the question of was there was some small personal benefit in it for Paul too. Maybe it was more than just work, work, work in the usual sense of the word...you know? I mean there are those of us who might say about Paul, "aw...the boobie." Fight truth decay. Working hard all year to get Annie pregnant is what I'd call an outstanding case of needing some heavy duty "maybe" to learn the honesty of why

"No matter how hard they try, scientists admit they cannot teach houseflies to do tricks." Seriously. That was a headline recently in the Drudge Report. "Huh?" You know how long it takes, and how much money it costs for you to earn a white lab coat...so you and a bunch of similarly white lab coat clad buddies are spending your time trying to teach houseflies to do tricks? And then you probably send that conclusion to be peer reviewed. "We even used double blind experiments, and the little suckers just wouldn't shake hands." We need more Huh? in our lives. There's a lesson we can learn from the famous story of the princess and the frog that will help you get ladies attention at a "singles" affair, and lots of other stuff you should enjoy in this podcast…including a freebie.

PSB&D is pushups, sleeping, breathing, and drinking...the things I understand in my life. Maybe you understand them too. But there are so many things I don't understand in this podcast. Maybe you can clear some of them up for me.

February is COLD. That's why it's called FebRRRRuary. Although some less informed people leave out the "R" and just call it "Febuary." So considering the temperature, it seems to me that it's just being kind to share some of your bodily warmth with someone who seems...chilly. Bodily speaking of course. Please drop me an email and confirm that you have done so. STAY WARM.

Guess what day the Trojan company says is by far the biggest sales day for their condoms? VALENTINE's DAY! What a surprise. This podcast will tell you lots of other things you probably don't know about Valentine's day...including who was the original "Valentine"... and yes there was one. Give a listen plese.

My computer is telling me I have no more financial worries because a nice guy in Narobi wants to send me a big stack of money from my long lost 13th cousin because I seem to be his only blood relative. All I have to do is send this guy my banking numbers. How nice of him. And my future safety is assured because I sent a small donation to Pastor Peter. There's an endless supply of folks like these living in my computer. Their motto seems to be, "If at first you don't succeed, try again when nobody is watching." Give a listen please.
