Thinking about it now, I’m glad it happened. And I’m very glad none of you were in the room, that fateful Friday morning, May 9th, when I saw the book up on Amazon, because the words that I let fly would have shocked you.

Your mind is made up but your mouth is undone, indeed!

      Formatting! And the new way we have to edit the pictures… I’m old! I can’t keep up! I hear you!
