5On the Radio with Two-time Grammy Nominee, Jim Brickman. The last time I was in Cleveland (my other home besides LA), I had the good fortune to be invited to chat with Jim Brickman about my experience being a producer during the early days of Survivor, Happiness, and 8 Good Things 😉
Also, I may be joining Jim for his New Year’s Eve Weekend in Phoenix, helping fans start the year with Happy Intentions.
6‘Avengers,’ the Most Lucrative Movie Franchise Ever, Is Wrapping Up. Why? I have always loved the escapism of these films and sad it is their last curtain call, though they are going out with a bang. As Marvel Studios’ president put it “Telling a great story requires a great ending. When you dedicate yourself to that, it shifts the way you think.” You will have to read the article to understand what that means. Warning, this is a super long article and super interesting if you are a fan. One other thing, yeah! for the Cleveland homeboys, Directing brothers Russo, Anthony and Joe.
7Movies to Watch with Mom This Mother’s Day. One is Mamma Mia. Being the Greek girl that I am, of course, that is my pick. It takes place on the island of Skopelos in the western Aegean Sea. Ahhhhh, such a gorgeous part of the world.
Since we are talking about Greece, did you know celebrating moms goes back to the ancient Greeks and Romans?
8A Father, A Son, And Their Odyssey. Continuing on the topic of all things Greek. If you have time to sit and read, this is a beautiful story about a son taking his eighty-something father on a fantastic Mediterranean voyage shortly before his passing. (Thank you for sharing, Mike M.)

“I make myself rich by making my wants few” ~ Henry David Thoreau.
I live by this quote and have most of my life. There is a lot to be said about keeping things pared down. I do not own much of anything. My most expensive material possession is my 2005 Chrysler Crossfire, which I love and so do the valets! I keep my asks of people selective and to a minimum. Where I do spend and do collect are experiences.
My most expensive experiences, priceless beyond measure.
