Sorry, stating the obvious, but if any of you saw his latest appearence on the Rosie O'Donnel show, he was at his most unhinged. For some reason he screamed "Seussical!!!" (as in the Dr. Seuss musical, i would assume) intermittendly throughout the interview at a pitch and mania thought maybe only maybe Janis Joplin ever attained. Manic joy almost immeadiately gave way to Richard Simmons crying about wanting to have children ("Dad, could you not wear pink stripped shorts and grease up your arms legs today?"). One of the most r****ded and compelling moments in TV history. The man is crackers. Don't know why I had to share this, but...the other Richard subject line must have reminded me of this appearence..later -Elvis! ------------------
i remember i saw him on the letterman show a few months back and he gave david letterman a kiss on the mouth while dave was trying to get away, after that letterman sprayed simmons with a fire extinguisher and said alot of bad words, it was pretty funny. ------------------ http://www.democrats.com mgh 1925-2001

I feel your pain. David Letterman feels your pain. Richard Simmons appeared on Letterman (for the last time) and Dave had to fight him off with a fire extinguisher. Simmons tried to kiss and hug Dave, he came out in some costume, sang a song or two... what a spectacle... Simmon's is definately eccentric and has a few screws loose. What happened to the times when he just hosted a morning workout show? How did Deal a Meal and the Freak Show start? He's just whack! And what IS up with the greased legs and arms? That is scary, especially when he's a bit pudgy himself.... He sort of let himself go a bit... don't ya think? enough. I can't believe I went on this long. rH ------------------ Homecourt will always be 'The Summit' to me!! Until we move downtown!! The Psychedelic Groove House of Rockets Basketball Love!

I actually find Richard Simmons very entertaining. Maybe in a LHutz-meets-train-wreck-into-vasaline-tanker kind of way. I mean, I think he's funny (even if he's not trying to be). And, plus how can you not like a person who is all about helping people? ------------------ DREAMer's Rocket Page
I don't get it. How do you not give Rich!!!ard!!! Simmoans more than one exclamation...I mean, the man shaves his legs to a smooth sweatiness and you give him one...only one exclamation??????? It is not like he disagrees about his "....Insane!" perkiness, or anything....give him his due.
