3 Tales Maxx
Storytelling Podcasts
This bi monthly posting, or as I call it, Toad in the Hole Day, will introduce you to my life. This stuff actually happened to me. I post my recollections so my family will have an accurate account of the many stories that have been told about me by others. This is what really happened no matter what you have heard. Almost all of these stories have been given a name by me and the other people that have been involved. My friends and family will tell you, "I did not believe anything Maxx said until I was involved in one of these off the wall encounters". Hence the name "3 Tales Maxx" because I find if I tell more than three stories at one time people think I am lying. This is my autobiography and it is not my fault.

The smooth talker makes the magic happen
7/9/2020
I have this gift. I was a great salesman just because I can identify with others and make them my friend. Even if they do not want to be my friend. This can be considered a gift and curse all at the same time. Just because I can talk people into something, after it happens, it can be an awkward thing. Today, I try to refrain from this but sometimes it just happens without me knowing till I am in that awkward place.

This is a story about my family, friends, and me. It takes place on Mother’s Day weekend. It was not a great weekend for me or Alice. I thought Alice left me.

The Rubber Glove Story is a contributing factor to make me record my life’s quirky situations for my family to enjoy after I am gone.
