Episode 5 is a nostalgic teenage boy’s view of a unique church service in the very small rural community of farmers and ranchers in the Rolling Plains of West Texas where J Mel grew up. This story is not meant to belittle, but to recognize that small societies are bound by the talents within their numbers and to acknowledge the bravery of those less blessed with musical talent to step forward to fill positions for which they are not qualified to perpetuate important community practices and customs. With that said, I include it, not to condemn, but because it still makes me laugh 60 years later. It really happened! Amen.

Episode 4 is a true story. The names of the guilty have been changed, except for the author's. It tells the story of what teenage boys in the rural Rolling Plains of West Texas found exciting to do in a creative, albeit, sadistic-sort-of way, Try to picture it - 1960's, lush green wheat fields, cool autumn night so remote no lights could be seen in any direction ... I will give you a hint. What is another name for a rabbit?

Episode 3 reveals why one adolescent teenage country boy did something that defied the ordinary bounds of human stupidity. It is a 100 percent true story about and told by J Mel who, having lived three-quarters of a century, is convinced every person in his or her own way has experienced, if truth be told. I am guilty. But the picture etched in my mind still makes me smile and blush.
