I liked your comment. It is funny to think of him as a daredevil teenager. I like your drawing of public speaking.

Hey, Randall, Welcome!

This is THE storytelling website online, and you're gonna love it.

Not sure what your connection w/ storytelling is, but it probably doesn't matter - movies, books, . . . it's all storytelling in one sense or another.

Hope you enjoy checking out the site, availing yourself of all that's here for you (us) -

My Best Wishes to you, and, again - Welcome!

Tom
