Thank you! I’m flattered Don. And, if your filmmaking is half as good as your judgment of character, your clients are in very good hands. 🙂

Actually Chris, the story is 100% true, and 100% accurately reported.

Both Mrs. Smith and Scott Wing really did exist, and the quote, “Like a woman’s skirt, it must be long enough to cover the subject, but short enough to keep it interesting,” was so memorable that I remember it today like it was yesterday.

It’s certainly one of the best coming of age moments I can remember from grammar school, and I wrote it into a script for coming of age movie that, so far, has never been produced.

Thanks Alex! That really makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and I need it.

I’m just lucky that I just had great teachers. But trust me, I still struggle with comma placement all the time.

Meanwhile, thank you so much for your ongoing support.

I’m so sorry for the late reply, Don! Been out sick, and just crawling back.

Dude, anybody who starts a thread asking other people to chime in is MY BEST FRIEND.

Carry on, my friend. Carry on!
