Throughout his life, Dr. Bill has found guidance in the blue-collar
adaptations of centuries-old wisdom: I have never failed, but I
have extensive experience with things that do not work; there is no
such thing as bad weather, just a poor choice of clothes; and shut
up and do your work. He has modeled the exemplary lives of his
parents and been tailwinded by the unconditional support of his
wife, Sheila. Dr. Bill shares stories about OCD Shepherd crosses
and a German Shorthaired Pointer with three testicles. There are
tributes to a one-eyed mechanic, the Pike County Jesus, and
Certified Nursing Assistants. Dr. Bill shines a light on the plight
of loneliness among the elderly, calls into question the
dehumanizing effect of technology, and respectfully opposes The
Wall Street Journal and Princeton Professor Emeritus Harry W.
Frankfurt. Dr. Bill lives each day to earn the words said, and the
tears shed at a Baptist church in Atlanta in April 1999. The two
hundred stories he’s written leading up to ADB were only a warmup
to properly honor the legacy of The Amazing Dick Bass.
