Excerpt from my new book...

     Leon's a cat skinner, and one day he's building fire trail, driving his Cat along this steep grade, and somebody falls a tree right on top of him. A limb nearly took his head off. We cut him out of the cab with a torch, the doctors sewed his head back on, gave him one of them voice vibrators so he could talk, and he cracked up the kids by smoking cigarettes through the hole in his neck. You gotta admire a guy like that.
