Pieces of My Life

You will soon be, visually, bumping into stories that have been parts of my life, and vignettes about friends, family and associates at the University where I worked...... Many are factual, some needed, or demanded, embellishments, different names and some needed variations in time and geographic locations. Yes, at times, I resorted to fantasy and/or fiction as resource materials..... If your name is included, I hope to have had your approval? If you have not been included, then, I am very sorry, because you probably missed out on a lot of fun......! At this time I apologize to: any administration, the NCAA, any entertainment agency or their clients.... I don't believe any real artists will be offended? I try to ignore any politicians! Love is found in most all sports, great entertainers, true friends and especially family members. I thank the following people: my mother and father, a couple of aunts, Faith, Hope and Charity, Flopsie, Mopsie, and Cottontail.. (Several young women) ,,,,and especially my love and my wife, the strong and resourceful, Linda......(Here, some applause should be included......!). My son, Jon and his wife, Julie, have been supportive, and their kids Sam and Josh have both been very important reasons to hang around, "just to see what happens?" Thanks for starting this book; most stories are short and the longer ones could take and hour or two to read..... any mis-spelled words could be blamed on "Spell-Check'. I take full credit for any errant marks of punctuation, or lack thereof. / I was an English minor at the "U".... See you at the end of the book....... Old Ted
