Once I Built A Tower

[poliphilo]

Alice took a call yesterday from the Oldham Advertizer. They'd heard about her book (now on sale at Amazon) and the eager cub reporter wanted to talk to her about her life growing up in Oldham- and in particular about her rascally, old dad.

She didn't give him my phone number, but I have his. I'm not going to call it. This is Alice's gig not mine- and I'm no longer in business as a mad-eyed deflowerer of virgins and trampler on crucifixes; that's a story of long ago and far away. If he manages to track me down I'll speak to him- as a reward for being a proper newshound- but only if.

I am sensing that rascally, old dad is also Very Proud Dad.
Congratulations to Alice!

*chuckles at the last sentence* You are still pretty rascally, though.

life does get tamer as one goes along
doesnt it? well...
got some sleep last night and I believe
I will again survive the trip and will
wave as we cross yr lattitude,
wishing good days!

I clicked on Amazon.com to see the progress on the book. It's scheduled to be up for sale on the 29th, I believe. I got to read an excerpt on line at the Amazon web site, and it looks interesting. I am planning to buy a copy from Amazon when it is available.
You are acting correctly - it is Alice's gig, and you can be the proud Dad!
