It is said that “change is inevitable – except from a vending machine.” Often times I think I’m just as stubborn with change as a vending machine. The website has been changed but the sentiment in the daily journal will remain the same. I miss my brother and will probably always write about that. He has value. I won’t forget him and I’ll fight to my death to never let those who falsely accused him forget him either. Oh, the sharp knife of a short life. Three very good friends of mine – Chris Frank and Tim and Joyce Smethers – lent a hand with the new video posted on the site. It was a wonderful learning experience and the closest I’ll probably ever come to being in a real western. Thanks to Chris and the Smethers for helping to check an item off the bucket list. I’ve been working day and night on the edits for the Sam Sixkiller book. The deadline is October 31. What a pleasure it has been to write about such a great lawman. I’m amazed at how fearless his was in the face of notorious bad guys like Dick Glass and Alf Cunningham. The book about this courageous Cherokee Indian will be in bookstores June 2012.
