I have 10 years on you, old friend. I guess I got to 75 thanks to hard work and good physicians. But plan for more aches and pains the next 10.

@WyattWheeler_ Speaking as a long-ago sports editor, you did a remarkable job here with the limited resources available to you. Best wishes in future endeavors.

I’m amazed and flattered that five years after my book was published, I still needed to order 10 copies of “The Potato Masher: Death at the Hands of a Jealous Husband” for future appearances. Thanks to the more than 1,000 readers who already have bought copies. @KentStateUPress

The most fun I’ve had in five years of book programs! Tonight, I spoke to the Axehead Beverage Co. Book Club in Seymour, MO, where Helen and I owned the newspaper in the 1990s. All had read "The Potato Masher Murder" and had their own theories about the case. @KentStateUPress

@KentStateUPress FYI, it should be Krystal, not Crystal. My fault.
