I love your idea. I think your love of people and humor will shine through. What about the southern tradition of storytelling? I know nothing about it, but I think it would be rich and another great place for you start. Ron!

I think you will find them to be interesting, humorous and just fun. His writing is great too, if you are interested in his type of humor from thirties with the "New Yorker."

MY favorite... "Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?" "The dog has got more fun out of Man than Man has got out of the dog, for the clearly demonstrable reason that Man is the more laughable of the two animals." "If I have any beliefs about immortality, it is that certain dogs I have known will go to heaven, and very, very few persons."
