A Tribute to Jerry Lewis

I recently did an in depth study of Jerry Lewis on the internet.
You are now asking "Why would you do that? Isn't he married, aren't you a married woman?"
The answer is I was bored and lonely and he always made me laugh.

Apparently the French have very strong feelings about Jerry Lewis, who knew??

Did you know that there are other people with this name.....My Daddy worked with a doctor at the Psychiatric Hospital Named Jerry Lewis, of course there was also Dr. Witchsy and Dr. Looney. Can you imagine the PA system...paging Dr. Looney... Dr. Witchsy you have a call on line 3.....

Here's a classic "typewriter"

There is also a Jerry Lewis that runs marathons and raises money for soldiers.....70 something years old, amazing. I think I went to high school with a guy named Jerry Lewis --maybe he spelled it different.

Jerry is special to me. I guess thinking about him just makes me feel happy. I feel like it is a connection to a more innocent simpler part of me. When I was 7 I donated to the MDA telethon. I remember getting the bill and Mom having to write a check for me.
