    The sheriff was gun-in-hand, the bank manger empty-handed. Expediency dictates you get rid of the most dangerous adversary first and in the quickest way, and perhaps be less direct with the second. Or, it could have been something else.

    Holmes! Egad, man, I do believe you are onto something! Elementary, Watson. It's Christmas! I could tell by that very decorated tree over there, and the rather rotund fellow in red placing the gifts around it. I would have never guessed! It isn't about guessing, my dear friend. It's about knowing!

    Well, I was going to have Cousin Itt open the door, but he couldn't reach the knob!

    Sometimes I think you see an even bigger picture of these stories than I do! 😃

    All sincere attempts at humor are always appreciated! Well, Lane is why he is, because, you will know by that last chapter. 😁

    Hopefully, a conversation that will enlighten?

    The spirit of the Tallfield's land predates even Lane, and so yes, it would know him, I think. The solution is...
  9. "What do you think?" Charlie asked Rance Tallfield, after he had finished speaking. The older man offered a smile. "It's very straightforward. I thought you were going to get me to try to tell him he was dead again, or something like that." "That won't work," Kippy said. "We tried that when we met him last time. He isn't going to be convinced easily." "You're sure he can't be hurt, though?" Eleanora spoke up. "I won't go along with anything that will hurt Lane." "No," Charlie

    Well, just to be safe, the last 'number' of the phone number is actually the capital letter 'O', and not a zero. No one can say I actually posted a REAL phone number.
  16. The cab was a Checker Aerobus, a large, boxy vehicle with four doors down each side, and enough seating for twelve. Originally designed to transport people to the airport in an urban setting, the car looked like it had been driven straight out of an old movie featuring prop-driven airliners and chiseled-faced pilots with toothpaste ad grins. Charlie remembered from his reading that Checker had once dominated the market for cabs, and the car had been ubiquitous on the streets of American cities.

    I actually have a fourth Door story in my Incomplete folder. And a fantasy with 30 chapters completed, a sci-fi story with 11 chapters completed, another with 3 chapters completed, the third Thrift Shop story, the fourth Mooi story, the third Road tale, the...

    Because I have a folder full of other stories that are incomplete because I stopped working on them once , twice, or even more times, in order to write a Charlie Boone story. You never know. You might LIKE a few of them!

    Sigh. I use the forgetful old guy routine, too. Just can't remember what for at the moment!

    I know that song. It always amazed me that people would bother to call it. Some were the same folks that thought it you played records backwards you'd get messages from demons or aliens.

    But...I figured you guys would be above such things. It's virtually impossible to make up a number that is not in use in the country somewhere. At one time, Hollywood used the 555-prefix numbers in TV shows, because there weren't any real numbers with that prefix. That changed in the 1990s, when 555 numbers started being offered. So what's a writer to do?
