A Series Of Crazy Conundrums: Tall Tales From South Texas
Hi, my name is Tom and I’ll be your host and head yarn spinner.
I live in a small town in south Texas that is filled with character and characters, so I’ll be mixing together both reality and fiction into entertaining stories for old and young alike and I’ll also be the narrator. Imagine what it would be like if the Twilight Zone showed up in a sleepy little town surrounded by cattle country, and decided to stay.
If you love small town charm then you’re gonna love my stories. By the way I’m a former newspaper and magazine columnist with several hundred articles published over the past 30 years.
