Frank Murphy is joined by author Thomas D. Taylor, who can be found online at https://thomasdtaylor.wordpress.com/. Thomas and his wife Elyse Bruce adopted some former “hoarder house” cats.
Thomas writes horror stories and offers to make Frank a victim in one of his stories. Elyse writes Missy Barrett mysteries. She invited Frank to read a chapter during the book launch for The Case of the Missing Muskets at the King Family Public Library. See photos at https://www.facebook.com/MissyBarrettFanPage
Talking about horror stories reminds Frank of the time he and his sisters saw the movie Night of the Living Dead. Frank laughed at the movie but his sisters are still scarred by it. Thomas describes a scene in his book Hemlock in which someone falls victim to an alligator.

When Frank was at the King Family Library, an employee named Launa told Frank that she had been a contestant on Tennessee Scholars’ Bowl when she was in high school. When Frank asked for the name of Ebenezer Scrooge’s dead business partner, Launa rang her buzzer and answered, “Bob Marley.”
In 2008, Ken Jennings hosted an episode of Scholars’ Bowl while he was visiting Knoxville on a publicity tour. The News Sentinel recorded a short interview with him that can be seen here: https://youtu.be/rpkTAAb6OrU?si=TqFfucpYTw3au3gq
One of the kids at the library asked Frank if he was rich. Frank answered that he is not rich but he is happy. In Los Angeles, Frank worked with a highly-paid deejay who wrote a book that revealed how miserable he was while making a million dollars.
