I address this letter in general to the American public, more specifically to the stock holders of Playboy, and especially to Marc Bell, CEO of FriendFinder.
In December of 1953, an American icon was born with the first publication of Playboy by Hugh Hefner and co-founder Eldon Sellers. And America would never be the same [...]
The ‘Voice of God’ called George Steinbrenner home to heaven Tuesday, July 13th, 2010. The same voice who announced 70 Hall of Fame ballplayers and countless more who are yet to be elected or retire, across a 57 year career, from the first day of Mickey Mantle, till late in 2007. Bob Sheppard, [...]
Dear Mr. James,

Andrew Jackson.
I watched a documentary piece today on Andrew Jackson on the History Channel. Some people say he was a great man. Some people called him a devil. I heard one Native American woman call him Hitler and she compared the Trail of Tears to the holocaust.
Why?
Why? Do you realize what [...]

Ch.1
At least they said it was. In truth I guess I never really knew their names. I was a younger man back then, mostly singing Johnny Cash songs for ex-cons and truckers in country bars through out the south and the Midwest all the way into Colorado and I guess that’s where [...]

Chapter 1- The Beginning
