A book is a hard thing to write. A good book is even harder. This, I hope you agree, is a good book. The following people helped a lot.
Bruce Schooley, my best friend and longtime co-conspirator
Ed McVaney, mentor, supporter, longtime friend
Danielle D’Souza, my daughter, whiz kid, and confidante
Debbie Fancher, my heartthrob, collaborator, and happiness consultant
Aaron and Sonia Brubaker, whom I adore and rely on
Kimberly Dvorak, researcher par excellence
Adam Bellow, my editor and friend of twenty-five years
The Texas women who prayed for me throughout my confinement
Hey, I’m not done yet. Without the following people, this book would not be possible.
My fellow convicts, who shared their lives and stories
Obama, the original con man
Holder, the henchman
Preet, Carrie, and the gang, the enforcement goons
Judge Richard Berman, who taught me more lessons than he intended
