Book Description
The stories you are about to read are the memories of my life, but not all of them. Names have been altered to protect peoples images and innocence. Although no one is ever totally innocent. All descriptions of people, places, and events are purely coincidental. It really hurts me to write this disclaimer shit to cover my ass. Such is the world today, little or no responsibility for ones actions. If you feel you have been written about in this book, you are wrong.
