Welcome to Tales By Tom. This is the first installment of Tom Cagley Sr's short story collections entitled, “Windows On THe World.” 

A wonderful day in the neighborhood: We all get surprised seeing a familiar face totally out of context, for the first time in a few years and not recognizing the face or anything else about her. I hope you reacted better than I did once. I still shudder.

Jet-lag twice: Getting a good night’s rest before going overseas is a must for counteracting the effects of jet-lag. We were ready and pumped. But Continental had other plans for us.

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!
