TalkBack for Dec. 5
'Mike's Life'
I lived in South Florida for 22 years and read Dave Barry regularly. In my opinion, your Mike Gibbons ("Mike's Life") is better than Barry, more natural in his humor, and just a pleasure to read.
Tattoos
I have multiple tattoos, and I am not a criminal. I have no intention of becoming one, either. Just because you live in Woodside doesn't mean you have to be a stuck-up snob.
Blessing
I met two wonderful strangers at the One Table for Thanksgiving. One gentleman was a former jockey and cattle wrangler and the other was named Elizabeth. I enjoyed speaking with you so much, and you truly blessed my Thanksgiving.
