About Us

We prefer you not know a great deal about our publishing company, but our Blog writer is Rick Townley, who proudly states that he is an embarassment to the graduate English Department at a major eastern university. A member of the Baby Boomer generation since birth, Rick is very close to 60 and is pretty gumpy about it. His favorite quote is, “among any three of us we can probably find one of everything that still works.” He remembers the early 60’s fondly, “yep, that MaryAnn sure had a nice…[bicycle]” We do occasionally find it necessary to do some minor editing on Rick’s work but rest assured his memory of the 60’s is highly accurate despite some of the things he did in the ’70’s.

During his career Rick worked for several major news organizations that gave him excellent recommendations when he promised not to return. He was a very involved family man who raised two children that he knew about, and denies ever selling a third child to gypsies. Rick is well-loved by his neighbors, who only rarely ever call the police about strange noises, and is a major supporter of his local library, to which he donated his entire collection of Pinnacle Books’ “The Destroyer” series.

To keep Rick quiet until his retirement we have given him the task of writing this blog and told him he can choose any topic he wants as long as it doesn’t attract the interest of Homeland Security, the FBI, the CIA, the NBA or the AFL-CIO. We hope you enjoy Rick’s acerbic and vaguely witty reports on daily life in the modern, post-60’s world. We know there are a lot of you Boomers out there who are just as grumpy as Rick, and we hope that by getting your attention it will distract you from interfering with the daily lives of others. So sit back, relax, have some herbal tea and enjoy!
