Hope for the best, plan for the worst.

I went to college. West Point is technically a college.

I'm not a vagrant... I'm a hobo. Big difference.

I grew up in Birmingham, where they made useful things and made them well.

That should be your town motto. It's all I ever hear. Like: New Hampshire, Live Free or Die. It should be: Despair, You Need To Leave Now.

I don't need validation, recognition or praise. What I need are facts and the facts are that one of my books gets sold, somewhere in the world, every second.

My mother still calls me Jim and that is about it. Everyone else calls me Lee. My wife calls me whatever.
