A humorous look at words that don't offend Liberals. The book will probably offend Liberals. This is meant for the entertainment of open minded people.

These short stories are based on actual events, parts from my novels, and children's stories. Sebring, the Rainman is based on a race my son, Beaux, actually competed. What a race it was Some of the dialog from Flight 223 actually occurred. You see I was on flight 223 from Seattle to Houston during the 911 terrorist attack on the Twin Towers in New York. A very strange and chaotic event I will never forget. Sandlot Wars, He Becons to Us, Friday Night Lights, and Surfside are fictionalized events that actually happened to me in highs school. They are now being made into the movie, "Live For Today." Houston: A Disaster Waiting to Happen is based on things that happened to me working of the Houston ship channel. The Di Nitro Toluene incident actually occurred with my friend John Hadfield. These stories may just be more truth that fiction. I hope you enjoy these as much as I did bringing them to you.

When my son and daughter were four and six, I began raising them alone. Many fun stories. I also became the mother and did all the cleaning, and cooking. Some of the best times of my life and hence the title of the book. My wife kept pushing me to write the stories I always tell people and my first short story, "Charge It," won a contest. I continued and have completed 54 short stories with a hundred and fifty more in the works. The Single Male Parents' Cookbook, is a delightful combination of food and humor, two subjects everyone will enjoy. As a single parent I raised my children from the time they were four and six, and soon became an expert in the kitchen. My cooking must have been good because both are adults now and still alive, which only attests to culinary skills . . . or luck The Single Male Parents' Cookbook combines recipes with humorous anecdotes of things that did and didn't work in the kitchen (and in my life ). Each recipe is followed with a short story of me as a child or that of my son and daughter. There are some fun cooking ideas along with some that were not so good, and even a few you don't ever want to try at home Everything from my Friday Night Special to the crazy Motel Doggy (the electric hotdog). Each recipe is followed by a short story about my childhood antics or raising my children. Not everything always ran smoothly. There was that time my boiled eggs blew up all over the ceiling. Oh, and that grease fire. Don't ever pour water on a grease fire But they say experience is the best teacher, and they are right. It wasn't always easy in those years, but I managed to retain my sense of humor. I heard George Carlin say that although he's over sixty, he never stopped being ten. That describes me perfectly. In fact, I've been ten six times over, and my life is as fun as ever. Don't let the cookbook confuse you. I'm just your Average Joe; a normal type of guy. Well, maybe except for the time I got married at midnight in a jail in Mexico. But that has nothing to do with cooking. Neither does the time I almost got kidnapped in the mountains of Colombia when I met my second wife. Just an average guy from Texas. It is fun to reminisce and immensely gratifying to see the story. Although they are old stories to me they seem to make people laugh. It's been a real delight to bring these stories back to life

Remember lying on the grass in your front yard and watching the stars? Your best friend was beside you and neither one of you uttered a word. Then a meteor flashed across the sky and both of you got excited and pointed to the sky. Our lives are like a flashing meteorite. Often the moments go unnoticed, but we do manage to brighten and touch the lives of those around us. Although we are not all famous or well-known, our stories are important. Each of us has a life in time. These are a series of short stories about my life. In the past I have heard a comparison I'm sure you have heard before, so let me ask you again. Who won the Super Bowl last year? Who won the Indy 500? Who won the last game of the World Series? Who were the Best Actor and Actress at the last Academy Awards? You might remember one but you probably don't know the others. Now ask yourself these questions. Do you remember the names of some of your teachers? What teacher helped you in high school? What valuable lessons did your mother and father teach you? And who was your best friend? They may not be famous but they brightened your life the same as that flashing meteorite. I believe life has been an adventure and that we learn from all the things that have happened to us. The one thing I try to do is look at things in a humorous way. As a child I was called Tiger because I was always into things. I thought I was just curious. As a teenager the death of my father weighed heavy on me. We began to move around. I became angry; a "Rebel," as some of my close friends called me. I had conflicts with religion. When my children were four and six I became a single parent. I learned a lot from them. .Most of the stories, I hope, will keep you laughing. There are some that are sad, but that is life. And that is what A Life in Time is all about.

People need to look at their government. I have written articles for over 20 years; from the first Bush to Obama. We have problems we need to face and quit sticking our head in the sand. It's okay to be a liberal or a conservative, but neither exists in our government today. Our politicians do everything but what they were elected to do: Represent the People. If you are open minded you will enjoy this. If you've only voted one party all of your life then don't download this book. Stop to look at what our politicians are doing today. If you are an open minded Christian you might enjoy this. And if you are you must admit God is probably not too happy. Atheists are offended. Everyone should be offended that they are offended. When talking about being Christian in the military becomes an act of "treason," then we have bigger problems. America has spent so much time protecting each individual's rights that no one has any rights. Throughout history every great empire has collapsed; there have been no exceptions. To all the military living and dead who served the United States of America, with honor and sacrifice for freedom and their country, may the actions of Congress and our Presidents not make their dedication in to God and country in vain. WARNING This is for mature audiences so if you're a Democrat or Republican who always voted the same ticket, this is not for you, because it means you are incapable of thinking on your own, so I'd rather you not buy it. If you are a frustrated American upset with the current administrations then you may find these scribbles quit enjoyable. Should I Forget A simple reminder, since I might forget. These are scribbles of an Old Fart and you may find repetitions. This is due to "Oldheimers." DISCLAIMER Any resemblance to political persons in office is purely intentional. FOR PETA'S SAKE For your peace of mind let it be known that NO animals were injured during the making of these meandering scribbles. GIVE ME A BREAK I'm not a racist, and I'm not a terrorist, I'm just trying to be funny and open your eyes to other solutions. If you have better ideas then you write a book. FINAL WARNING Before you read this I must remind you that you have three choices. You can only pick one so be careful. You are a Democrat, a Republican or an American. If you picked one of the first two then don't get this book and if you do then don't complain. Americans tell the truth, the other two don't. Offended yet? You will be; unless you're an American. FOR OBAMA I'M AMERICA'S BIGGEST THREAT I'm a white, Christian, heterosexual, and I believe in traditional marriage. I am America's Biggest Threat. Get Over It
