Welcome to Tales By Tom. We are revisiting the rewritten story called The Medal.

The Medal is not not a travelogue at all, the story that follows is about my first business trip overseas. To Rome. The first part that follows in less than a minute is about #1 a remarkable turn of events, #2, a very first of a kind, and #3, about the pope, NOT TO WORRY --- it has nothing to do with the DaVinci Codes or Angels and Demons.

Give this new version a listen then go back and listen first version from June 2009. I encourage you to provide feedback on these stories or any of the earlier shorts by email at [email protected] or by voicemail at 1 206 339 5456.

See you in two weeks!
