Did I contact you before? I'm the author of the only book on Shep= EXCELSIOR, YOU FATHEAD! THE ART AND ENIGMA OF JEAN SHEPHERD (published by Applause Books, March, 2005). It's almost 500 pages with illustrations, endnotes, index, etc. I'm working on finding a publisher for my new Shep manuscript just completed.<br /><br />Also, another big Shep fan/blogger, who designs blogs/webpages, has promised to design a Shepherd blog for me. I await his word.<br /><br />Did you know that Shep's Maine place was not far from Agusta--on Snow Pond Lake (aka some other name on maps--a bit northwest of Agusta).<br /><br />EXCELSIOR,<br />Gene<br />(Eugene B.

Imagine what home can you made without a house… <BR/>2.

If however you are drowsy in a foreigner land, how will you go to bed, if you don't get any money to pay the hotel? <BR/>4. How will you get knowledge without buying books? Will you relocate in a public library? <BR/>5. That's why I visit a doctor. To get health; not to take a coffee with him. <BR/>6. When you are broken, it is known how many respect people pay to you! <BR/>7. Don't get me crazy. The transfusion of blood, isn't a transfusion of life after all? <BR/>8.

Andy also had a puppet frog that would jump out every time Andy said, "pluck your magic twanger, froggy."
