Welcome to the Brawling (Bowling) Lanes!

 

We took my 6-year-old Grandson Bowling at Steve Cooks Fireside Lanes with my wife. Things were a little rowdy in the lanes to the right of us as there was a pretty good-sized group of young adults. One guy with pants down to his knees tried bowling and threw it hard into the gutter. The others might have been making fun of him, I don't know. I went ahead and bowled and then I heard Robin yell at me as she took our Grandson away and then I noticed a brawl with about a dozen people. One of them was swing wildly at mostly air, but he had a knife and stabbed a few of the bowlers. All havoc broke loose and there was lots of blood. Paramedics showed up first and then Citrus Heights finest came to take statements. 

We left the lanes early and took our Grandson to Texas Roadhouse.

Time to try to get published again. Wish me luck.

 

Now that I am retired, I should have all of the time in the world to do more writing and trying to get published. Technically I have had my writing before the public. First as a writer on the Eureka High Redwood Bark. Then I sent letters to the editors of the Times Standard, Arcata Eye, Press Democrat and the San Francisco Chronical about politics and I wrote sport updates for Sports Editors locally for years. I self-published a softball newsletter that some people give me grief over the years. I wrote a biblical analysis of the New Testament Bible in the 80's that took me years to complete.  90's I wrote a Fiction Novel and actually got paid to write up Safe Operating Procedures at the pulp mill. I wrote training manuals for Union Organizers in the 2000s as well working on non-fictional story about leading the workers of Dart Container in their successful union organizing drive in 2004. I wrote a Childs Book inspired by my son Jordan that I tried to get published with no luck. I am currently working on a non-fictional novel about my father's work as legal counsel with the Mafia. My last employment with the Construction Industry Force Account Council I wrote almost daily about the progress of my work that was published monthly. 

I have decided Prioritize and revisit the Science Fiction novel I wrote and see if I can get that published. Then the Child Book published. After that I will work on the Non-Fictional novels. Hopefully i can finish all in this year. Wish me luck! 

Mikes Burgers or Bust!

Is there any place in Humboldt that compares to Mikes Burgers? What I am looking for is the greasy equal for fries and chili burger or hotdogs. Maybe Surfside? Double AA makes a good one. When I come back to Humboldt this summer to visit I want something that reminds me of the garlic fries!
