Tales From 2nd Street
A good story lures then captivates us with elements of Conflict, Struggle and Resolution. We want to know what happened, how it happened and how it was resolved. It could be "ripped from the headlines," or something that Uncle Al told us at the dinner table on Thanksgiving. "TALES" will present vignettes from the lives of ordinary people as well as original tales of fiction. Let us know what you think about our work. Contact us at: dougs2ndst@gmail.com. We welcome you to our family of listeners. Doug Scott

Winning isn't everything. Years ago in Philly where I grew up, when you would go Trick or Treating, people would invite you into their homes. Before you were given any treats, you would have to stand there as they asked with big smiles, "Do we know you?' and "What are you supposed to be?" All decked out in our costumes, mostly cobbled together by our Moms, we couldn't understand why the answer wasn't self evident. Why couldn't they tell immediately what we were "supposed to be?" Well, many years ago, the star of our little tale, nine year old Greta was greeted with a similar experience at her school's Hallowe'en Parade.
