Well, this was quite the lead up with all the cat mishaps and adventures. Sorry for all the cat heartbreaks, Geoff. I can see you're an animal lover. You will love my Catzilla stories. I hope post a few more this year. Anyway, it was so good of you to read to the blind. What a great help for those who cannot read the paper anymore of have no special aids to do so. A wonderful calling and ministry. I am actively involved in my Florida chapter for Foundation Fighting Blindness.
All my best to you and Louise,
Sally ,+))

I did aspire to announcing on air but never made it. One day I had a piece to read about a guy in Hospital Emergency that got a bottle stuck up his butt for whatever reasons we won't go into but I could not help laughing on air and the announcer had to take over. I did not last long on that job it was during a time I had skipped church for about six weeks as I may have mentioned.

Hi Geoff, another interesting chapter to your story. I would have been a nervous wreck to appear on a talk show. Karen Carpenter had an amazing voice!

I loved the Carpenters, their harmonizing and all that. I was a bit disappointed Louise could not get the same pleasure due to her deafness she was unable to hear the different parts. Thanks for the lovely review.

You're most welcome.

It is so hard to lose a pet. In the US we still have issues with women of other countries, usually third world or communist countries, trying to marry American men, usually soldiers to gain US citizenship and then divorce, too.

Yeah well I felt like this was what he was involved in, for his own personal gain too. Glad God protected me from that. Thanks again.

Comment from judiverse
How interesting. I hadn't read this part before. I enjoyed the stories about your kittens. Sad that they ran off, never to return. That happened to a kitten I had many years ago. The ones I have now I keep indoors. You seemed to have success with your jobs, as you rated promotion. Interesting about your experience with the radio program. It must have been a joy to you to read the news for the print handicapped. I think this is very well developed. A nice touch to include the reading. judi

Yeah Sasha I would hope you were right. I felt so unfaithful after PinnyII disappeared getting Mitty the one and only Female Tortoiseshell cat I ever had...sadly she disappeared too. Bob (Mastery has suggested I put a Synopsis of my pasto Chapters on each chapters so working on that he says to interest new readers.
Comment from Mastery
Hi, Geoff. I liked this chapter a lot better than the previous one. You hav eled an interesting younger life, my friend. I was on air radio form five years when I was in my twenties. It's notm a very good paying job unless you hit the big time.
Interesting storytelling.
Suggestion: (You will find it very difficult Geoff, to find anyone that interested time wise to go back and read all previous chapters, therefore I recommend you write a very brief synopsis above each new chapter for the sake of new readers which you will pick up all the time hopefully. ( You need only do it once..after that just copy and paste to each new post.) Also, put a list of characters at the bottom of your chapters...again this only need be done once and updated with the addition of any new character or person involved.
Blessings. Bob

Sounds like a good idea mate. I used to do a summary of old chapters I got the current format from someone else but always open for new suggestions. Will work on it. Up early again today like dear old Anne (Mabaker...hehe)
