Dedication

I dedicate this book to Chestnut(September 29, 1995–April 16, 2007), my ever-faithful cocker spaniel who followed me around like the puppy dog he was, even in his old age. I always watched over him, and now he is watching over us. We miss you.

—Ken Bluttman

To my father, Jay B. Freeze, who taught me how to survive when things get rough. I miss you.
