Thank you to everyone who has checked out this blog over the years. I moderated this blog for the few years that I added posts to it. You can still read all of the original posts and enjoy the comments, but I won't be adding any new posts for the time-being, and the comments sections have been closed for a number of years. I moderated the comments section to keep it free of spam or comments that had nothing to do with the posts, but, unfortunately, I don't have time to do that anymore. If you wrote a comment that has not appeared, I apologize. My life became very hectic for a few years, and I couldn't keep up with the comments to be moderated or the blog itself. That said, I hope you enjoy what's here if this is your first visit. Sincerely, John McNally author of two novels set in Burbank (THE BOOK OF RALPH and LORD OF THE RALPHS)
