Cal Campbell April, 2012 Cal Campbell is a former administrator from Eastern Illinois University. Although he has written several professional articles, this is his first attempt at writing fiction. As a member of the Occasional Writers Association of Charleston, Illinois, he wrote one article entitled "Elliot Ness He Was Not" in the published book, Occasional Writers, Bringing the Past Forward. The published article was about his father, an agent for the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Department under the office of the Treasury Department.

The precious tough-love teachings of his Uncle James instructed Ward Connerly in the importance of good character, and are reflected in Connerly's own personal and intellectual honesty, in his extraordinary courage and tenacity.--From publisher description.

But for bad luck, Cal Daniels might have gone somewhere in life. Instead he wound up a forty-year-old overnight grocery stocker and ex-con living in his Uncle Bills back apartment in Temple City. Over a beer one morning after work, Cal meets a woman and brings her home and nothing in life will be the same. From the daily journal he began in prison, Cal recounts the events that began that day as it seems every step away from that morning somehow brings him two steps back toward it and before it ends, his infamous background will give way to a different kind of fame that will leave him well traveled and nearly dead three times.

"Gray Hair, Black Belt", by Mr. Carl "Cal" Tuohey, describes one elderly-ish persons experience during a series of Tae Kwon Do classes. While geared toward those over the age of 50, this book will help anyone that has thought about taking a martial arts class and provides hilarious details on what to expect. The book is divided into two parts. Part I describes the inner workings of a Tae Kwon Do class as seen through the author's comedic eyes. Mr. Tuohey begins by explaining his decision to start Tae Kwon Do at such a late stage in life. It ends with Mr. Tuohey taking you through his Black Belt testing and earning his Black Belt. The book covers topics such as "The Class Format", "Sparring" and "Belt Ranks". It also provides descriptions for the various Korean terms used in class, and the patterns necessary to reach each belt level. While taking the classes, Mr. Tuohey contributed articles to the school's monthly newsletter. Part II of his book is a compilation of those light hearted fun-to-read articles. They reflect an exaggerated viewpoint of what Mr. Tuohey saw and experienced during his classes, told as only Mr. Tuohey can.
