Hey, I wish I knew what the hell I was doing today. I’m headed for hip-replacement surgery. But in a sense it’s a blessing to have a week in a hospital. I’ll get to finish my next book, Chance II. I’ve written several books, and this might be my last. They haven’t been wildly successful,

Hey, Get this. Life is nuts. The MIC wants to take over a dealershow/aftermarket show. Hillary Clinton wants to pass more gun laws, but doesn’t mention dealing with the mentally ill.

Hey, I’m confused and frustrated today. I’m sure you face similar situations. I have a good friend who doesn’t trust our government.

Hey, We have daunting questions chasing us for many reasons. Two political basketballs could save this country, so should, would we, could we make them happen. One is our medical system. Should we turn it over to Medicare, eliminate insurance, unless you want it, and save the country trillions, annually? Tort reform is the next

The full moon crested the harbor like an evil glow over Transylvania. The hue from the Los Angeles sky foreground turned the color of the perfect globe a dense, almost Harley Orange. It didn’t exude the aura of freedom and chrome, but maybe a darker spirit like Halloween. There was something eerie about the night.
