Names can certainly be confusing! If you read my blog profile, you can see two stories about Eddie ...but one Eddie has a wife named Doreen and a daughter named Mindy. The Eddie you are about to read about has a daughter by a different name, as you soon will see; and the character "I" is married to a Doreen.

And I am not the "I", my name is Stephen, not to be confused with this story's nickname for Eddie. My last name, me being the storyteller, is "Meiner". It is pronounced the same as "minor" or "miner". So I'm no stranger to the name game; and I've been the recipient of many jokes and much teasing. But that is a minor issue! And I certainly hope this doesn't provide major problems for you .....
