      It all depends on how young you feel and how agile you are.
      Both my parents are 76 now and very fit.
      They could die any day, you never know at this age.
      But my mother will daily cycle and often cycles twenty kilometers or more on her bicycle.
      And my dad gets up at six in the morning to go fishing by himself, drives his car to France for a holiday, plays in a band and performs etc.
      Just stay active, stay away from experimental vaccines/ mass hysteria/ stupidity, don’t drink (only some wine twice a year or so on truly special occasions), don’t smoke (occasionally a joint maybe) and don’t stress just relax (fuck authority figures and their bullshit and fuck society and the stupid masses, go your own way and enjoy life and your natural given freedoms).

    It's always tough to hear about the passing of someone so talented and cherished in the entertainment world. Richard Lewis brought so much joy and laughter to so many people through his role in "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and his stand-up comedy. His unique sense of humor and his ability to turn everyday situations into moments of comedy will be dearly missed. Let's remember the smiles he brought to our faces and cherish the legacy he leaves behind. Thoughts go out to his family, friends, and fans around the world.

I loved his early days of comedy when he paced back and forth with his worrisome stuff - all pessimistic, but funny AF and relatable as all hell. My God, I'll miss him. He was beautiful. He's gonna be a riot in Heaven. 😄 Condolences to his family & friends. 💐🙏🏽❤️🕊

Also, the episode when a woman thinks Richard is going to beat Larry with a baseball bat, so she hops in the driver's seat and runs Richard over with her car! The look Richard makes as the car is approaching him will have you crying laughing! People say that Leon, makes CYE, but Richard does it for me! Godamn Richcie boy, I love you!

I'm glad Richard was able to stay dry for as long as he did. RIP Richard Lewis.

    Awww, so sorry to hear this. He made his neuroses hilarious. Always funny, without ever being mean spirited. Gonna watch his videos and remember him. RIP Richard. 😞
