HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Besides bringing you updates on my books and movies and providing some entertainment, recipes, and a few laughs, I've tried to use the collective power of a loyal fan base to spread information that can help others. In next month's issue, we'll debut a special video of hope for individuals like myself who have been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. Then there's Mikee Gomez, a 22 year old who is dying of stomach cancer. Mikee's parents are desperately trying to raise $5,000 to begin a treatment not covered by insurance. If everyone reading this newsletter gave $10 we'd surpass the total. The easiest method to donate is PAYPAL using mikeegomez11@hotmail.com .
As always, I want to thank you for reading my novels and supporting my work. YOU keep ME going.
Have a healthy, safe, prosperous and joyous 2014.

I have no control over this, but I suspect something official soon. If it happens in mid to late January I'll put out a special email.

Yellowstone Caldera bigger than thought

If you read PHOBOS: MAYAN FEAR then you know about the potential catastrophe this super volcano can deliver. The newscaster in this clip is either heavily medicated or just stupid - an eruption wouldn't just destroy ten miles of land, it would release an ash cloud so dense and large it would block out the sun's rays, leading to the end of photosynthesis and an ice age. If you want to read what really happens, read PHOBOS.

Joke of the Month
|
A newly married man asked his wife, 'Would you have married me if my father hadn't left me a fortune?' 'Honey,' the woman replied sweetly, 'I'd have married you, NO MATTER WHO LEFT YOU A FORTUNE!'
A wife asked her husband, 'What do you like most in me, my pretty face or my sexy body?' He looked at her from head to toe and replied, 'I like your sense of humor!'
A man was sitting reading his papers when his wife hit him round the head with a frying pan. 'What was that for?' the man asked. The wife replied, 'That was for the piece of paper with the name Jenny on it that I found in your pants pocket.' The man then said, 'When I was at the races last week, Jenny was the name of the horse I bet on.' The wife apologized and went on with the housework. Three days later the man is watching TV when his wife bashes him on the head with an even bigger frying pan, knocking him unconscious. Upon re-gaining consciousness the man asked why she had hit again. Wife replied, 'Your horse phoned.'
