Synopsis

As I thought of writing a second book my mind drifted toward a theme to draw out my thoughts. I don't know when numbers** became the tool, the angle I'd use to tell my stories. Perhaps it was my frequent trips down Hertel Avenue that suggested the use of numbers. I would glance to the left at a small shop and memories of my dad and his watch repair shop would quickly emerge. Vivid pictures flashed in my mind's eye- dad bent over his work bench or standing in front of the shop near a window marked "Jewelry Repair" Today my eye rests on the number- 638 . . . the same number, the address of the shop of my memories.

Here the reader is exposed to the Word of God. Here the reader will find the place for his story and is able to find God in the rubble of his own life and numbers if he but listen. . . .

I enjoyed the logic that traced them 1-9. that attached number with its numeral. The answer is "There are angles" Very interesting is: "0" For a peek at numbers from this angle, for your information- be it fact or fiction, I have included pictu
