I just read the great columbo mystery by Martin Ross intitled Murder at Yule Tide. I especially liked the part where I was included as a CSI Lab Tech. I love both CSI,Law and Order and COLUMBO of course. I felt very honored being mentioned in your story. You also must be a psychic calling me Stocky. How did you know. He hit in on the nail. But you left out big-boned. WHich is still okay. Next time you use my name in a story let me be the murderer. I would like to read this and enjoy reading your clever stories.

I think you should sent your script ideas to peter Falk. They would make great epsiodes. This story is better than UNDERCOVER and NO TIME TO DIE

And I am way overdue to thank Martin for including me as a character in the same story. Especially since he portrayed me as the sergeant making naughty jokes about the deceased's exposed private parts, at the murder scene.

Some of you, especially newcomers to the Forum, may not know about Martin's great "fanfic" site, "Just One More Paragraph". It features a growing portfolio of original, first-class "Columbo" stories, some of them by Fan Forum regulars whose neames you will recognize. It's well worth a visit -- set aside some time to have a good read, then come back and read some more:
