    I was with some friends in Tennessee two weeks ago and a few retired Enlish professors were also there. I told them, "I'm almost finished with my first novel."

    Paint Fumes

    I've been sitting in my home "office" dipping lead jig heads into paint. I think that I'm "high" now. Wow, that stuff smells.<br /><br />That got me to remembering the old days when I put model cars together and the glueing process. Now you have to be 18 years old to buy model glue. I never...
