Book Description
Thinking comic I discovered that many of my relatives were rapists, robbers, and murderers. Thank God there were no politicians. I once read that grandchildren are God's gift to parents for not killing their children. Some days, my brain synapses fire with a BANG. Other days, they go "Pofff." My brain has a million billion gigabytes of memory. That's not the problem. Recall is. Men, unlike male dogs, do not pursue bitches. Golf addict Golf is like sex. The more you practice, the better you get. It is also more enjoyable with a partner. There are five basic needs: food, water, sleep, sex, and golf--not necessarily in that order. Blessed are those whose wives are addicted to golf. Psychotic philosopher The "meaning of life" is the same for all living organisms--"continuation of the species" Most marriages that break up are due to a lack of intimacy, of which sex is only a part. It is difficult to succeed without "book sense." It is almost impossible without "common sense."

Golfers will love this book. The stories will remind them of similar personal experiences with the game and their fellow golfers. All readers will relate to this dive into the human experiences that abound in a life of golf. Like a golf course with 18 holes of varying lengths and designs, this book offers 18 stories that can be enjoyed whenever time permits. Each story is connected to a golf experience of the author but the themes are much broader: from politicians to socialites, Augusta National to the Open, race relations to life lessons, sorrow to ecstasy. The prologue elucidates golf terminology and a comprehensive glossary assists neophytes in understanding this game that so captivates we golfers, whether hackers or pros.

Book Description
In the Alaskan town of Sitka, the living is tough and the crimes are aplenty . . . and plenty personal. When 97-year-old William Flynn is accused of killing his neighbor, Angela Ramirez, he turns to private investigator Cecil Younger with an odd—and, frankly, rather incriminating—request. He wants Cecil to track down a man he believes witnessed Ramirez’s murder: her estranged husband, Simon Delaney. The only problem? Flynn doesn’t just want Cecil to find Delaney. He wants him to kill the man. Cecil knows that kind of thing would be bad for business, but he takes the job, hoping he can both convince Flynn to call off the manhunt and discover what really happened to his neighbor. But the old man isn’t making the job easy. He keeps confusing two different crimes: Angela Ramirez’s recent murder and an 80-year-old tragedy in which four American Legionnaires were killed during an Armistice Day Parade. Cecil struggles to sort through the old man’s befuddled memories and dives into the search for Delaney, which takes him on a journey through Alaska history and all over the Pacific Northwest, from the Aleutian Islands to Centralia, Washington.
