These stories are to be taken with a grain of salt as they are written to provide you with a moments respite from the real world. Some contain elements of truth, while others are based on real people. If you feel that maybe one of these characters in any of these stories for some reason reminds you of yourself ... please do not complain, but be grateful that you are now immortalized in print. The author would like to categorically reassure you that no animals in any of these stories were harmed in any way.
