CRYSTAL CLEAR! IT'S BILLY'S BIRTHDAY!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to one of my favorite comedians, 
Billy Crystal.
 I wish he would do more stand-up work, but I am glad that B.C. gave us so many great moments at SNL, the movies and the Oscars. He turns 66 today and if you haven't read his book or heard his CD "STILL FOOLING 'EM" 
you are missing something special. 


In the book, Billy chronicles his first 65 years in a humorous, yet touching, way. He discusses his family, his love of baseball, his successes and his failures and he gives us an inside look at his career & many of the celebrities he has met along the way.
( Jack Palance, Robin Williams, Meg Ryan, 
Rob Reiner, Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, etc) 


The best part about the multi-disk CD set is that Crystal is the author and the narrator. He brings his personality to the project and also reads several of the chapters in front of a live audience which gives the read an extra added boost.



 If you Billy Crystal, or comedy, or show biz or family, or all of the above, you will love "Still Fooling 'Em". It is packed with a ton of laughs and a few tears as well, especially if you are over 40. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BILLY!
