This site has been set up to share thoughts and photographs with friends and relatives regarding Peter. This is a work in progress and will change and improve as time goes on. Our thoughts and ideas are, just that, ours. They may or may not agree with Peter's, but that's what makes the world go around (and seems to be an endless source of enjoyment). If your not going to respect Peter's opinions, than please continue reading. He is a conservative in every sense of the word. He feels that a civilized society cannot function without rules and regulations, rights and obligations. Letting the past guide us keeps our society from falling into chaos. Keeping the things that work, to allow for order and freedom, freedom for all, not just the special interest groups. Peter has come to realize that life is short. We should tell the people that we love that we love them as often as possible. One never knows when this may be ones last opportunity to do so. By the way, we will all be watching what is said, not doubt even his mother may very well be reading this. And YES, please wear your shoes into the Parlor!

Code



As some of you know, I’m just about ready to go to print with my new novel the Detrolio Code and I couldn’t be more excited. As described by the editors at amazing.com:

"A murder in the silent after-hour halls of the Attleboro Industrial museum reveals a sinister plot to uncover a secret that has been protected by a clandestine society since the days of Lincoln. The victim is a high-ranking agent of this ancient society who, in the moments before his death, manages to leave gruesome clues at the scene that only his granddaughter, noted telephone masseuse Soya Never, and Peter Detrolio, a famed toenail collector, can untangle. The duo become both suspects and detectives searching for not only Never's grandfather's murderer but also the stunning secret of the ages he was charged to protect. Mere steps ahead of the authorities and the deadly competition, the mystery leads Never and Detrolio on a breathless flight through Spain, France, England, and Little Rhody. Jass (Pickles and Pipes) has created a page-turning thriller that also provides an amazing interpretation of Western history. Jass's hero and heroine embark on a lofty and intriguing exploration of some of Western culture's greatest mysteries--from the nature of the Peter's wardrobe to the secret of Peter's own code of ethics. Though some will quibble with the veracity of Jass's conjectures, therein lies the fun. The Detrolio Code is an enthralling read that provides rich food for thought."

I think I might look around for a director worthy to bring this fine tale to the big screen. I’ll keep you all posted.

Ah, Michael, and I used to like you so much. I even told jo jo to stop calling you puke! I cannot believe that you have used your computer knowledge in such a sinister way! It would only be made worse if Dave were somehow involved. I already know who's given spiritual counsel on this site. I will now peruse and see how I have been besmirched. Beware the wrath of the abused!!!!!!!

Hey Expat,
I hope you are sitting and have a fine Jerez sherry in your hands when you peruse the site. There is a lot of creativity among this evil tribe!

Dear Peter,

Be sure to take some console in the mere fact of the near limitless joy you are bringing to those whose life you have touched. I harbor no ill will toward you and still consider you my brother. That being said, I still look forward to your flailings.

Sincerely,

Michael

p.s. BRING IT ON!

It is nice to be faced by such talented adversaries! I shall attempt to parry as well as my neighbors. Oh, and Dr. F. you do know MIke, he's wife's the one that beats your wife every year in the Pie baking contest.

I guess we're off to the races!

I have been trying to amaze and entertain for years but was always upstaged by my funnier brother. Thankfully, Joe has turned into a curmudgeon and I can now be seen for the comedic genius I have always been. And Mike, with all this time on your hands, I know why the Cranberry industry is in such a mess!!!!!!!

Actually, working for the Commonwealth, we're too busy to be engage in this type of frivolity. Suffolk Downs is open!

Wow. I think I have finally found a reason to purchase 'PhotoShop'. I have never before been able to justify the price, but... wow.

Peter, you have always prided yourself on having creative and intelligent friends and family (well, actually I don't know if you pride yourself on family--but you ought to!). This, I am afraid is the consequence. I'm very impressed!

I have to say, if I'm going to be mocked, this is the crowd to be mocked by. No tounge biters in this crowd. Candidates for Bedlam hospital, maybe!
