Regardless of what you think of that particular old crank clinging desperately to his senate seat, I roll my eyes every time I see a "news story" about some politician endorsing.
Who the hell cares? Who is going to let someone tell them who to vote for in a presidential election?
It's refreshing to hear many pundits now scoffing at the idea that Michelle Bachmann can direct her supporters ... read more »

The writing is so crisp, candid and insightful. He rips back the curtain and takes us inside this world, of senior military in a war zone in the Middle East.

So much about this book to love.
It's only the second book I've ever agreed to blurb. That tells you how much I loved it."

“Down the hall came the wife. She was glorious, burning. She didn't know yet that her husband was dead. We knew. That's what gave her such power over us. The doctor took her into a room with a desk at the end of the hall, and from under the closed door a slab of brilliance radiated as if, by some stupendous process, diamonds were being incinerated in there. What a pair of lungs! She shrieked as I imagined an eagle would shriek. It felt wonderful to be alive to hear it! I've gone looking for that feeling everywhere.”

“Once upon a time there lived in Berlin, Germany, a man called Albinus. He was rich, respectable, happy; one day he abandoned his wife for the sake of a youthful mistress; he loved; was not loved; and his life ended in disaster.
This is the whole of the story and we might have left it at that had there not been profit and pleasure in the telling; and although there is plenty of space on a gravestone to contain, bound in moss, the abridged version of a man's life, detail is always welcome.”

Hi Dave,Thanks for befriending this fellow author on Goodreads! Living in Colorado, the events at Columbine hit close to home, and being a mystery author, I have heard presentations from Colorado police officers who were involved in the investigation.
Thanks for adding me! I'm a big fan since I first heard about Columbine, about 10 years ago. I really wish I could find your book in this book-deprived country!PS. I won't say "happy" because it's impossible, but have SOME kind of 11-year anniversary since Columbine today.
Wishing you a deep sense of peace and good fortune this holiday season!!!! Happy reading!!!
Pastor Chris
i know you've read black hawk down... right? I ran a "compare books" between you and me and it didn't come up... haha

Dave,
I suppose that is what happens when you write with honesty and a good heart. :) I hope for all the best in your writing career.
