Last night a resturant here, Joe Cracker. Had a dinner for the homeless people in the area. About 30 of us were there. After it, I gave the manager a copy of my book, Bethyl and the Dragon Dagger, free of charge. I also stuck a flyer about my book in it

The Skeleton's Halloween Costume

Shsssssssssss! It’s a secret known only to those, “Things that go bump in the night,” and to us that understand Dragon Tongue.
It is also a secret that they enjoy Halloween as much as we do. Not because they can roam the streets looking like they do naturally, but because they love to dress up in costumes as much as we do.
I have it from a reliable source that this year the skeleton will be in the costume to look like a witch. He ...has borrowed her tall black witches’ hat, her black dress and look black gloves. He even has her black cauldron to collect goodies. What she wouldn’t let him borrow was her wand. Instead he will be carrying a riding crop.
To change his face, first he will be wearing a pair of head phones. That way when his head goes be bopping around, people will think he is doing it to the music. The witch is going to place some of her make up on him which she buys at Jack’s Old Lantern. It is the store that is owned by Jack Frost. When he first opened it he use to sit on top of a giant pumpkin to attract people inside, but he got tired of them saying, “Look Frost’s on the Pumpkin. So he came up with the idea of carving a pumpkin and placing a lantern in side it. He place it out in front of his store. Most of his business is done at night. They started to say, “Look that’s Jack’s old lantern”. Business started to boom for him and he named the store Jack’s Old Lantern. His store is now franchised everywhere. Where ever you see a Jack O Lantern, you will know there is one close by.
The skeleton is going to slice up a beet and place the slices in his eye sockets. In the middle of each slice he will put a black olive with a red pimento in it. For his nose he will either use a really weird shaped carrot or a banana that is turning black.
When you see him the way you will know he is this skeleton is because he is the same height as Bethyl is in my book, Bethyl and the Dragon Dagger which is available on line at Amazon.

Yesterday was my first newpaper intrview about my book. Now I have to wait to see what it looks like in the newspaper. I am really excited. It could lead to me not having to live in a tent in the woods here.

No man is an island

No man is an island entire of itself; every man
is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;
if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe
is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as
well as any manner of thy friends or of thine
own were; any man's death diminishes me,
because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom
the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
John Donne

A song by Bob Marley

Here is a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happy
In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy......
Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The land lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Lood at me I am happy
Don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number
When you worry call me
I make you happy
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got not girl to make you smile
But don't worry be happy
Cause when you worry
Your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry, be happy (now).....
There is this little song I wrote
I hope you learn it note for note
Like good little
Don't worry, be happy
Listen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry
You make it double
Don't worry, be happy......
Don't worry don't do it, be happy
Put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down like this
Don't worry, it will soon past
Whatever it is
Don't worry, be happy

Dream weaver
Ive just closed my eyes again
Climbed aboard the dream weaver train
Driver take away my worries of today
And leave tomorrow behind
Ooh dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Ooh dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget todays pain
Ooh dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Ooh dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Though the dawn may be coming soon
There still may be some time
Fly me away to the bright side of the moon
And meet me on the other side
Ooh dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Ooh dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Dream weaver
Dream weaver
Dream weaver
