Book Description
When you drive down Gold St. in Deming, are you driving over mysterious tunnels built in the city's past? The rumors of their existence have persisted for decades. Did the army build a 10-mile tunnel right through the middle of town? Did 19th century businessmen use tunnels to secretly patronize the town's brothels? Or, did the local Chinese use tunnels to avoid contact with abusive townsfolk? The curious and talented members of the Deming Writing Group set out to explore these legends and try to sort out the truth. Thirteen writers accepted the challenge and were randomly assigned different literary genres (mystery, horror, screenplay, literary, etc.) to create each one's take on the tunnels. So, do these mystifying tunnels under Deming really exist? Decide for yourself after reading Down Under Deming.

IÕll always be a Marine.

Baseball season was already underway, my Brooklyn Dodgers were 10 and 0, and I was stuck in my seventh-grade English class conjugating verbs. I had lots of plans for the summer break, if it ever comes. When one of the cutest girls in my class invited me for a coke after school I was torn between being with her and listening to my beloved Dodgers on the radio. So goes my last summer in Gering, Nebraska. I was thirteen and confused as my interests were somehow shifting from sports to girls. I had my first crush on the prettiest girl in class but ... but the Dodgers were having a pennant winning season. I didn't know what to do with all these new feelings.
