Breakfast of coffee and Candy Corn at 9pm, dressed as an old man in pajamas sitting down to his desk to finish a new collection of short stories. Scary! No one can say that I haven’t entered fully into the spirit of the season.

This is an interesting, somewhat offbeat Western based on a story by Dorothy M. Johnson, who also wrote the stories on which The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and A Man Called Horse were based.
She specified that the inscription on her tombstone read “PAID”. ”God and I know what it means, and nobody else needs to know,” she said.
She sounds like an author whose work would be well worth exploring.
Fast Paced Reading
Well written fast moving western stories. Not for the light hearted reader, as the stories do contain some rather strong sex scenes and considerable violence. Mr. Fonvielle is a wonderful story teller and this collection of shorts is good western reading. One of the better short story collections I have read, Well done Mr. Fonvielle.

The image of Barack Obama eavesdropping on the private cell phone conversations of Angela Merkel is so disgusting, so craven, so masturbatory, so shameful, so nauseating that I’m amazed the man can wake up in the morning and present himself to the world as the President of the United States of America, an office once held by George Washington, John Adams and Theodore Roosevelt — men who would have allowed their fingernails to be pulled out with pliers before engaging in such behavior. Obama has dragged the American Presidency into depths of moral depravity that the Founders could not have imagined, much less created Constitutional mechanisms to punish and prevent.

. . . one of the heroes of the Battle Of Gettysburg and, it might be argued, the most important of them. If his regiment had not held off the Confederate assault on Little Round Top during the second day of the battle, and Lee had been able to station artillery there, at the far left of the Union line and commanding all of it, there is every probability that Lee’s assault on the Union center the next day would have succeeded, and Lee could have marched on Washington.
Before the war Chamberlain was a college professor in Maine.
