     As a break from the collapse of Western Civilization, here's a little humor. Guide Lions is a send-up of how literary pubs present themselves. Porterhouse - Jive is a parody of Vonnegut. The Escape Pod is about my father. Courageous Pulls Through is about a guy, a truck, and true love. A doggy bonus: Love and the Mountain Mutt.

     Dear Americans:

Please stop hating anyone about anything. Just stop. We are not victims or rulers. We are partners in democracy. Our future depends equally on great unity and great diversity.
