Jumping for Joy

By Dean W Oliver

Have you ever been talked into or just done something you thought wasn't such a good idea? I bet you have, and if your like me it generally didn't go so well. This is a collection of humorous stories based on such ingenious endeavors. I've thrown in a few enhanced versions of a couple historical events as well.

I was raised in California, but have spent much of my adult life roaming around. I love traveling, meeting new people seeing fresh sites. This has given me plenty of opportunities to get into some interesting situations and see life from many different perspectives. Some time ago I started writing stories about the people, places and situations I was experiencing and sent them back home to friends and family. I soon realized that I loved to write.
