My father offered me a dollar for every pound I would lose as a kid. It didn't work. And it doesn't really work in the long run.

I've been offered big money to promote machines. And high-protein diets, when that was really popular. There was always some new powder or diet plan that somebody wanted to put my name on.

Its an eerie thing. My childhood is being washed away.

When I go to bed at night, I ask God to give me another day; I ask him to keep me strong and make me a good teacher and to keep spreading this right word.

My nickname is Dickie Jukebox.

Everyone in Senate is a hurdle, but everyone in there has children. Everyone in there has grandchildren. No one wants to see our kids continue to gain weight, have high blood pressure high cholesterol, diabetes, and depression.

I have a one of a kind collection of dolls. My house is like a museum.
