[Re: Loose Cannon: Farewell, My Segmenter (A Sam Chaid Mystery), Direct Newsline, Sept. 12, 2005]:
I gotta spill my beans and call a Spade a Spade — your DM Noir novella had me laughing so hard, I broke my funny bone. (Hey, can I sue?) The real mystery is, why haven’t you been snapped up to write brilliant B-movie scripts for Hollywood?

The article was intriguing. I was astounded to find something so out of the ordinary in this Direct edition. I would also claim to be astounded by your writing skills; which were impressive and far beyond my capability in terms of surmounting such a stale (to the overwhelmed many) topic. Kudos! It is good to see writing of any level amongst this crowd. I aspire to write often and well some day, despite being entrenched so early in this profession. Once again, congratulations on entertaining; with novel subject matter at that.

Your point’s well made, tho’ Falwell isn’t from Lynchburg, TN. He’s from Lynchburg, VA! The original home of ChapStick, Fleet enemas, and Jerry Falwell: the solution for whatever ails you!!!

I’m certain I must be the 144,000th person to e-mail you to let you know that Jerry Falwell hails from Lynchburg, Virginia, not Tennessee.
I don’t think they even allow Baptists and bootleggers in the same town, at least not in Dixie.
Anyway, I don’t know how the Rev. Dr. Falwell feels about it, but I thank heavens every day for what Mr. Jack Daniels makes in the other Lynchburg.
Clever column, by the way.
