Dear Robin;

          I been watching your show for years.  I entered your contest on confidence to try to win a sign copy of your book , but my essay entirees were denied.   I did not win.  I do have the money to buy your book and my wife even has pleaded with me to purchase the book for me as a birthday gift.  But I told her that my birthday falls on November 25,  offical day of mourning of the late president John F. Kennedy and the only reason I joined the contest was to show my son that I have done something in my life and that I knew about confidence and it just would of been a big thing to have a sign copy morning sunshin book on that day.  The contest is over  , so my last word on confidence is my submission of two pictures. this picture is a picture taken on the uss nassau lha-4, the original crew of the USS Nassau, when it was frist commissioned by the actress Elizabeth Talyor and Senator John Warren, in july 1979. I am pictured in the front,  EMFN Cruz, and the other picture is a picture 30 years later of my self in a tux.  This time my entry though late and void are two pictures of a young emfn Cruz in the Navy and a pic in a tux of Eddie Cruz.

P.s. My wife read your book at brnes and nobles but she did not purchase the book because she knew how I would feel having the book un sign.   Senator Mel Martinez, LL cool j , Jlo, and other people honored me with their signed books and I will always appreciate there kindness.    I talk so highly about you that it would of looked bad for me just to have purchased your book and have signed copies of the other peoples writtings.  I watched your show every day starting at 6:00 a.m. and I enjoy the whole crew, van-Dillon, westhoven, richie lui, and the bck up crew covering.

                                                             Good luck and God bless

                                                              with your future endeavors

                                                              Eddie Cruz
