About the Book

A professor, a pro football player and a plumber walk into a bar. While it sounds like the start of a bad joke, it is anything but. Instead, it is the beginning of an extraordinary and life-changing adventure for this unlikely trio and and six others of their acquaintance. The bar they walked into was a tapas bar in Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto. The fateful day was Wednesday, April 18th, 2012. All the plumber sought was a break from his dirty labors. Most of the others simply sought a break from the ennui of a long afternoon. An hour or so of some friendly, profitless conversation with an alcoholic drink or two of choice and they all would have left feeling mission accomplished. But one of them, a newly retired Bay Area radio personality, came in to Bar OSA armed with the startling news that the forever young Dick Clark had just died. It was generally agreed by all concerned that that was the catalyst that transformed their lives. During their meandering bar banter, it was decided the best way to remember Dick Clark was to buy a lottery ticket in his honor. Let me just say there wouldn't be a story if they lost.
About the Author: Mike Cleary is a longtime Bay Area radio personality. While some may remember him as a Top Forty DJ or as the host of a popular children's TV show, he is best remembered as being the Mike of "Frank and Mike in the Morning." The Frank was his close friend, Frank Dill. The highly rated show ran for years on KNBR in San Francisco. In 2007, he was inducted into the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame. A proud neatnik, Mike has a fondness for colorful socks, pocket-squares, Martinis and memorizing Shakespeare. To date, no one has asked him to recite any of the Bard's good stuff he has committed to memory. He and his wife, Mary Ann, have recently retired from long-distance running and now enjoy long-distance walking. Their longest to date was a clockwise stroll around the island of Manhattan. Mr Cleary is happily married with two grown daughters. He resides in Piedmont, California.
