Bad Angels Stand – Good Angels Can Sit

Have you ever wondered why we turned out the way we did?

Writer’s block! If you are a writer, you can identify with the comic strip character Snoopy as he sits atop his doghouse with his typewriter undertaking another attempt at writing his future best-selling murder mystery.

Blubba Kowalski – Part I, The Early Years

Blubba Kowalski

 

This is Part I of the story of a young man whose unfathomable size was both a blessing and a curse; an incredible advantage and a tremendous obstacle; his best friend and his biggest enemy.

He was named Walter Stanislaus Kowalski III after his father and his grandfather before him, and he would grow to become a skyscraper among buildings, a sequoia among smaller trees, and a man among children.

It is also a story about a young boy whose heart was as big as the body that carried it.
