Well, instead of saying that I would get to this in a day or two, I should have said a day or three, but, better late than never. When I got the package...
Mark: I hope to get to all of the stories with Brains and Jimmy, and yes, I am definitely (I think that I use this word too often - I'll have to come up with...
ToT, Wow! This is the first time I have had a story reviewed like that. Thank you for not burying the hatchet between my shoulder blades. As I read the...
J: I just realized that I never got back to you on this. Thank you for the recommendation. While I do not expect it to be the serene image that you described...
A couple of weeks ago, I ordered Charles Morgan's book of short stories, Golden Rods at Twilight, from Lulu.com, and just now closed the back cover with a...
I'd like to thank the great Mr. Morgan for Brains Benton and the Stolen Jewelry. Sorry I'm very late but we went to India a few months ago and came home with a...
David, Thank you so much for your kind comments. They mean a lot to me - especially coming from an accomplished writer like yourself. All the best, C...
Hey Jim, Welcome home! (I might be late...but I'm polite. Ask Gomez...err...no wait...don't.) And congratulations on your addition! I hope things are working...
Right back at ya....careful with the grill, not too much beer and eat a hotdog or sausage for me. Fred........... ... From: raider22153 <raider22153@...>...
My greetings as well and best wishes to one and all for a safe and happy labor day! Sad as it is to see summer come to an end, it means Christmas in Crestwood...
I've been running all around the country (No Gomez...I'm not running from the law...) But I wanted to stop by before I fly again and wish everyone a Happy BB...
This doesn't relate to Brains Benton, but does anyone out there read the Bronc Burnett books? They were sports books for young readers back in the 40's and...
LOL... Perhaps the person who sold you the book will now sell you the ending.. for a price... Â Seriously, not familar with the series, but hope you find the...
Just catching up on my emails, so I will belatedly say I hope everyone had a good Halloween. Mine was pretty much Dullsville. Mrs. Gomez took the kids over...
I'll beat C to the punch, James and tell you you actually forgot the THIRD rule of buying old books--the first is not to buy from "Gomez' Fine Pre-Read Books",...
... Yo, Gomez, ever heard of the 5 book Frenchy Beaumont series written by Charles Spain Verral? One book features the sport of hockey, one features football,...
James, Sorry I'm no help (I heard that Gomez!) I only have "The Three-Two Pitch." (1948) and as I recall I enjoyed it. No one showed up at the ol' Gomez place...
Currently rereading the Bronc Burnett series. I enjoyed it a lot as a child. The explanation of football and baseball strategies was well integrated in the...
Seth prodded: Still, if your a BB fan, why not seek out the somewhat hard-to-find Frenchy Beaumont books which are a joy to read even if you don't give a hill...
Woop, I didn't mean to send that blank mail. Just thought I would brag about purchasing at a local antique show these three kids' picture books authored by...
Ten or twelve years ago I read biography of General Creighton Abrams, and a fellow general said he (Abrams) got the nickname "Old Scruffy" because he could put...
Gomez, if you can find another place where the general said someone looked like "forty miles of bad road," then I think you're on to something. Mark "If your...
I seem to recall Brains telling Jimmy that he "looked like an unmade bed," but can't recall where. Jimmy had gotten to the lab in a rush after an early morning...
Yep, Jeff, It's hard to forget the Senator. Odd how three characters in the same book had "the" in front of their names: the Senator, the Joker and the Queen. ...
