…if you could guess who said that right after you read it, you are a true fan!
…if the names – Sondra, Denise, Theo, Vanessa & Rudy mean anything to you, you are a true fan!
…if OBKB puts a smile on your face, you are a true fan!

On October 23rd, 2010, I had the chance to cross off another thing on my bucket list – watch Bill Cosby Live on Stage!!!! It was at the historic Kennedy Center in Washington, DC and it was perfect!
