Be there when he is offered a job by Chicago Syndicate Boss Sam Giancana. Discover his plan for getting Pete Rose into the Hall of Fame. Read about his joke writing experiences involving Bob Hope, about why he loves golf but never plays, and about how he came within minutes of joining the Army Secret Service. Written with a sense of mischief and fun these 28 essays are usually humorous, sometimes bizarre, invariably informative, and always entertaining. Personal experiences are a springboard for discussions on a wide variety of topics including gambling, violence, sports, UFOs, intelligent crows, and the meaning (?) of life. In 2002, Mengeling’s book on Ray Bradbury, Red Planet, Flaming Phoenix, Green Town, was published by AuthorHouse.
Now happily retired from university teaching, publishing, and administrating, Marvin E. Mengeling lives and writes for fun in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, with wife Frankie (the poet), son Tom (the photographer), and Katrina (the cat). Daughter Brenda Jo and husband Michael are medical researchers at the University of California Davis. And so it goes.visualizza meno
