A murder whodunnit with early radio for good measure. Some actual happenings vectored in. 73DG Title: Re: For those that read fiction...

I'm looking forward to starting it this week.

I'm sure the AMFonies would love to take up a collection and get you some tutoring. ;) I'd even send you a copy if you promise no slopbucket for the new year..... :-X 73DG Title: Re: For those that read fiction...
