   Greetings to all super heroes and various super criminals out there in   
   cyberspace,   
      
   I want to thank those of you who responded to my "whining" about no book sales   
   and literally went bananas in buying my first Commodore book,   
   "Run/Stop-Restore: 10 Anniversary Edition." This copy, as you probably found   
   out, was full of flaws and even had    
   a PC2 on the front cover. This is why in the back of my book I included a   
   pictures of my kids and I holding a read Commodore 64 so, for those who don't   
   don't know, you could see what a real machine looks like. You all are great are   
    I appreciate your    
   support.   
      
   However, please don't stop there. If you go to the Amazon Bookstore you'll find   
    the rest of my books that are on sale and for a much cheaper price than what   
   you spent on the first book. All 3 of my skit books and my next Commodore book,   
    "Shift-Clr/Home:    
   More 8 Bit Thoughts In A Gigabit World" will be found. These books took a small   
    team of one heckuva cover artist in middle Missouri and my great sister-in-law   
    to do the interior editing. These books are more professionally done and have   
   a lot more    
   chuckles in them and maybe a guffaw or two.   
      
   So if you're still locked down by this crazy COVID-19 thing and are looking for   
    something to do, then please support me and your local UPS affiliate by   
   getting these books from Amazon.com.   
      
   If you're ever in the Kansas CIty, KS area and have my books with you, then   
   please post something and we can set up a meeting place where I will personally   
    sign your copy for you. I'm more than happy to meet someone who supported me   
   and my efforts to    
   become a great and successful writer.   
      
   Great Caesar's Palace! Before I forget, also check out some videos starring me   
   demonstrating some BASIC programs that I have written over the last 28 years.   
   As usual, I try to demonstrate my work with a slight hand of humor, but most of   
    the time I don't    
   make it and just stick with the facts. I want to thank BIOSjerbil for making   
   these videos while I was in Las Vegas doing Commodore shows. You can find these   
    videos on YouTube.   
      
   If you can ever find a copy, my very first ever published work to be released   
   in a magazine was in November 1992, the very month and year my youngest son was   
    born. Timing could not have been better. The title of the work was called   
   "Check Printer 64/128"    
   and could be found in an old issue of RUN magazine on page 22. If anyone wants   
   to follow my Commodore shenanigans, then please find copies of "The Interface"   
   Commodore newsletter and "Reset" international magazine coming out of   
   Australia. "The Interface"    
   can be found by Googling "Fresno Commodore User Group." I don't think "Reset"   
   can be found on the Internet, but those of you with great search skills should   
   be able to find it.   
      
   As you can tell by my avatar, I still think I'm a superhero. I'm just more of a   
    trainer for future superheroes since most of my powers and skills have waned   
   over the years due to age and slowly crippling conditions like arthritis, but   
   nothing I do will    
   ever take place of those men and women who are really heroes like our armed   
   forces, law enforcement, and those who are on the front lines during these   
   trying times. I take what's left of my hair off to them. They are fantastic.   
   God bless.   
      
   Thanks for reading this incredibly long post. You all are number one in my   
   book.    
      
   John 20:31,   
   "In Brightest Day"
