http://MEtell.name 
As story teller Learnin’ Vernon, he has entertained audiences from Presque Isle, Maine to Hollywood California*
He has been an Air Force medic, cook, custodian, mental health worker, electrician, volunteer firefighter, E.M.T. and a lifetime member of Girl Scouts. It is through all of these memories that Vernon draws for his tales. He has learned that every day a new journey begins and a new experience unfolds.
That is why he shall always remain
a Learnin’ Vernon!
*Hollywood!
Ok truth is I was there for a taping of the Pyramid show and they asked for talent between takes as an audience warm up. I told "Prinderella" to the delight of the studio audience which included its host. No money exchanged hands but my wife personally met Donnie Osmond and shook his hand and that was priceless.
Willey Phinedit (pronounced Will E Find-it?)

Thanks. I put a great deal into that story. And I checked the Seanachie Nights info; looks good to me. My friends, Drew and Diana, were sorry to have just missed Willey's story (parking is a dog!). They said they always enjoy seeing you perform. It was a fun opener.
Cheers,
Lynne
