Sweet Jesus. I for one prefer to think of Richard Simmons as a completely non-sexual being. That clip was funny yet deeply disturbing at the same time. I thought Robin Williams’s guest appearance on Whose Line was funnier. I will admit, though, that Wayne Brady going into a fetal position at the end was hilarious.

**Annie-Xmas** : That “Buddy Holly” guy is Greg Proops (I swear that’s his real last name), and he’s a pretty damn good comedian in his own right.

Thank you!

I just forwarded that on to about 30 people.

And as I recently mentioned regarding Richard Simmons being “straight”…uh, no.  
A very good friend in West Hollywood who doesn’t tend to get into the Hollywood gossip thing told me an interesting story about a Gay hustler friend who went home with Richard Simmons…quite interesting.

After view this clip, I have this strange urge to try a JetSki…
