Richard Gere
Diane, thanks for taking part in the drawing giveaway. Good luck to you.
Well I already ‘like’ you, we’re connected on Twitter . . . and did you know that said famous actor (yes, Richard Gere) has a home (not to mention a spiffy restaurant/inn) in Bedford, NY, which is in the same general exurban locale where I live?
Deborah, thanks for taking part in the fun. You are now officially entered into the drawing several times. Good luck to you! Interesting tidbit about RG. Have you bumped elbows? I’ve heard he’s a nice and interesting person.
Becky:
First and foremost… I love the blog. I started reading after your Steve Jobs posts and I’ve been hooked ever since. The perfect balance of interesting writing and wonderful eye candy!
As for the contest… I liked, I followed, I tweeted, I signed up… and I swooned … over Richard Gere!
Thanks for the opportunity to win… and for the wonderful blog, seeing a post from you in my feed reader makes my day!
Pamela
Wow, thank you, Pamela! Welcome to my blog “officially.” It’s nice to have you here. And good luck in the drawing.
I was too late to try to answer–I saw the answer in the other posts! That’s OK. I very much enjoy your blog and I signed up to follow it. And I liked you on FB.
Thanks for taking part, Tina. Good luck to you. I appreciate your support!
Richard Gere (looking a bit Asian as I remember)
Linda, thanks for taking part in the fun! Good luck in the giveaway.
Richard Gere. But answer me this: was the goal that Olivia reached to get her feather a secret? I keep wondering.
Stu, since she’s still so young and doesn’t have much control over her life yet, I wanted to keep that personal just for her. Guess it’s my mama bear instincts. You’ll just have to smile and know it was meaningful to her (and us).
Becky, you’re amazing. What a go-getter! Richard Gere, but I’m not in the running. A little too busy at this end. Much luck on hits and likes!!
Nancy, thanks for taking the time to comment. And you are in the running simply for answering the question!
I knew it was Richard Gere even before I saw these other comments. I also just liked you on FB. And I had already signed up to subscribe (which is how I knew about this post) and have been following you on Twitter for ages (ok, maybe weeks). Hope that all counts for something! Thanks!
Monica, thanks for all your support. It’s so great to have you along on this fun journey!
Richard Gere! And I’m going to like you on facebook right now!
Julia, great to see you here! Thanks for making the time to enter the drawing and LIKE me on FB. Good luck to you!
Loved the sideways Richard Gere.
Suanne, thanks for entering the giveaway. Good luck to you.
Nice blog, Becky. Love the photos. The person on the Thailand poster is Richard Gere. I am tweeting you message and liking you on facebook. Thanks for the fun
Thank you, Nancy. It’s great to see you here. And thanks for tweeting and liking me on FB. Good luck on the giveaway!
Hey, Becky! Richard Gere (does it count twice if he’s one of my all-time favorites? lol); already subscribed; already liked your page.
Candice (She Writes)
I’m sure it counts to Richard Gere that he’s your favorite! Thanks for taking part in the giveaway, and thanks for your support! It’s great to have you along!

Victoria, thank for taking part in the giveaway, and good luck to you!
Thanks for the heads-up, Becky.
My answer – Richard Gere. Followed you on Twitter @CristinaDimen and “liked” your FB page.
Cristina, good luck to you in the giveaway. Thanks for tweeting and liking me on FB.
Put me in the drawing. I could use a gift card. RICHARD GERE.
You are officially in the drawing. Good luck, my friend!
Well, I was going to say Richard Gere, but everyone else has already said Richard Gere, so instead, I;m going to go with Richard Gere because that’s what comes to mind first.
Ding ding ding…you are correct! It’s Richard Gere! Thanks for taking part in the giveaway and following me on FB and Twitter. I appreciate your support!
Hi Becky – not cribbing the others’ comments, I truly did click back, back, back in time – because that’s what you’re looking for, the clicks, not just the answer. AND am going to follow and retweet. Good luck on getting lots of traffic.
Thank you, Beverly! I appreciate your support and your honest effort in clicking back to the answer. And thanks for the Tweet. Good luck in the drawing!
Everyone else has already said it, but Richard Gere.
I’ve liked your Facebook page, too.
Kelly, you’re in twice (for your answer and FB LIKE). Thank you for your support! Good luck to you during the drawing.
Richard Gere

Arindam, you are fun! Yes, please tell me how you knew the answer without going back.
Just by going through the first comment you got in this post of yours. Probably the answer was waiting for me
