Thanks!

Absolutely.

Thanks Joe! I've had to do a lot of research on Navy SEALs as I've been writing. It's given me a greater appreciation for what they do. My nephew has had a pretty long career in the Marines so I'll probably

That sounds horrible, John! There's nothing worse than water intrusion. It can cause so many lingering issues (mold, hidden damage, etc.) It was such a feeling of helplessness to see that deluge of water

It seems like in our 50s we do have a lot of experiences and catalysts that make us question the path we're on. Some people I've known retreat into their work and use it as an escape from life, an excuse

For sure! We've been living with holes in the walls and ceilings for a long time now. Thank you for the good wishes! I hope you and your family are well.

I'm happy to invest in The Pub. I'm sure it's exciting to be building something like this. It will certainly give you something positive to focus on. Have a great weekend Jay!

Preparar una cena tradicional de Acción de Gracias requiere muchísimo tiempo. Es mucho mejor tener simplemente que calentar todo, sobre todo cuando se trata de una visita tan breve. El título del libro

It looks so beautiful there @zirochka. Where is your hometown again? It looks like the book was finally delivered yesterday! It took 17 days to travel from Warsaw to Kyiv. I hope it arrived in decent

For sure! They prescribe opioids for almost everything here. They tried to give me oxy when I got my LASIK surgery done but I refused. So glad you're on the mend!

So much of the city seems gentrified. I can't wait to make it back there!

I had totally forgotten about TCBY! They were absolutely everywhere in the 80s and 90s. Your posts are showing me how much I missed while I was there in Austin last year. I mainly just explored downtown

I'm so sorry to hear this happened to you! I hope you can get your account access straightened out. It would be a shame to lose you on the platform.

I'm sorry to hear about the hospital visits! Our healthcare system here in the US is in shambles too. It's horribly expensive and most of the doctors have been bought by Big Pharma who aren't interested

You were wise beyond your years!

Thank you! It's made such a difference in productivity to just focusing on the novel during the week. It's great to hear people still look forward to my blog after all these years. Dialing it back to once

The answer would be writing while traveling the world for me. I achieved it for a few years (2016-2019) but then Covid threw a wrench into my plans. I hope to resume soon!

It's so much fun to tour wineries. The whole culture behind it is appealing—a slow meal, enjoying a bottle with friends, good conversation, relaxing. I always thought it would be fun to go to France, Italy,

Not a bad idea! My books are available at other online retailers but the prices are usually higher. I just discovered an eBay seller who has them priced 2x retail price. Thanks again for buying some copies!

I always have loved cars. My Dad was into muscle cars so my brother and I were exposed to it early. I didn't get my first fast car until 2022 but I've mostly owned sensible cars (Hondas, Saturns, Toyotas).
