While contemplating the writing of my college memoirs about the University of Dayton, I jokingly referred to how I crammed a four year college course into six. It turned out that I had a double major: engineering and having fun. My college life was comprised of three books named after the places where I lived, The Mansion, The Dirty Double and Frank Street. I named the trilogy The Scholars. This third book begins when I returned to Cleveland, my hometown, to enjoy a summer with my two State Trooper brothers. My full ride scholarship allowed me to return to college in the Fall. The Three Wise Men, my brothers and I, journey to Florida for Christmas where we found a flock to lead astray. Spring Break, facilitated by friends, included a home on the ocean and a yacht for parties. Some of our escapades were featured in Time Magazine.The college scene proved so boring after Spring Break; I turned to my studies saving my college career.

While contemplating the writing of my fifth memoir, I decided to write about my second home at college called The Dirty Double. This would be the second book in the trilogy about college named The Scholars. In college, I joking said that I had crammed a four year course into six because I had a double major: engineering and having fun. I aced having fun! My friends and I rented an unfurnished half of a duplex located across the street from the University of Dayton. We attempted to fix it up, just enough to make it livable. The other half of the duplex was inhabited by a group of guys who considered themselves to be the movers and shakers of the college scene. They were called BMOC, Big Men on Campus. They did not look kindly on their shabby neighbors.There were different versions as to why our residence was called The Dirty Double. Whether it was because of the condition of the place, the guys living there or the parties we threw. I''m not sure. You decide.

The Barons begins with Mark trying to figure out who his parents are. His father, Leslie, is a non-Catholic immigrant from England. His mother, Nora, a Catholic, emigrated from Ireland. Why would these two get married? Didn''t the Irish hate the English? He never does figure this out.His brother, John, bought a car before he even knew how to drive. Rather than suffering under their father''s tutelage, John found a girl to teach him. For the guy''s first road trip, John and Mark head for Detroit; only to get stuck in a snow storm.Prior to going into an all-boys Catholic High School, John insisted that Mark take dancing lessons at Arthur Murray''s. This enabled Mark to meet the girls in the many Catholic High Schools in the area.While a friend was teaching him to drive, Mark rolled the family''s car on its side. Now he had to tell his father that he had totaled the family''s car. He asked St. Anthony to give him the proper words to explain this disaster to his father. Instead Mark said, "I totaled the car!" His father whole heartily agreed. In desperation Mark declares it can be fixed. "You fix it, you can have it," his father declares in frustration. Fix it Mark did. In less than a week, with the help of an old friend, it was fixed. This is how Mark Anthony named his car, Cleopatra.John formed a car club with a bunch of his older friends. They called it the Royal Order of the Barons. He invites Mark to join. The club made Mark their president, who knows why? The Urchins become royalty, if only in their minds.The Kelly family continues to take their month long summer vacations. This one was to Washington DC, Georgia and to Florida. Later in the summer, John''s girlfriend invites him to visit her at her high school sorority''s cottage at Madison-on-the-Lake. John, Mark and their friend, Dick, drove to the lake for the time of their lives. The girls took them to the local dancehall where they taught the guys how to drink by chug-a-lugging each beer. The girls have to drive the guys back to their cottage for the night.The following Kelly summer vacation was to Canada. John declined to go. The trip includes Buffalo, Rochester, and Albany in New York. The Kelly''s camp along the road. Through Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine; into Quebec, Ottawa, and on to North Bay Canada for an extended stay. "We are going to visit the home of the Dionne Quintuplets", dad announced. "They are the most famous people living in Canada; five sisters born at the same time." We saw their home but not them. Upon leaving they stop for Sunday Mass in Callandar. In walked the Quintuplets who sat in the pew in front of them.Back in Cleveland, Mark suggested that the Barons rent a cottage of their own at Madison-on-the-Lake. They did! After two great weeks of meeting the girls, dancing and drinking beer Mark returned for his last year of high school. His fame proceeded him. He found new friend at his high school along with a new set of girls from Beaumont.When the Korean War broke out, Mark convinced one of his new friends to joining the Navy Reserves with him so that we could get the GI Bill for college after the War.

Former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, share their impassioned argument for responsible gun ownership. After the 2011 Tucson shooting that nearly took her life, basic questions consumed Gabby Giffords and her family: Would Gabby survive the bullet through her brain? Would she walk again? Speak? Her hard-won recovery, though far from complete, has now allowed her and Mark to ask larger questions that confront us as a nation: How can we address our nation’s epidemic of gun violence? How can we protect gun rights for law abiding citizens, while keeping firearms out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill? What can we do about gun trafficking and other threats to our communities? Enough goes behind the scenes of Gabby and Mark’s creation of Americans for Responsible Solutions, an organization dedicated to promoting responsible gun ownership and encouraging lawmakers to find solutions to gun violence, despite their widespread fear of the gun lobby. As gun owners and strong supporters of the Second Amendment, Gabby and Mark offer a bold but sensible path forward, preserving the right to own guns for collection, recreation, and protection while taking common-sense actions to prevent the next Tucson, Aurora, or Newtown. Poll after poll shows that most Americans agree with Gabby and Mark’s reasonable proposals. As the book follows Gabby and Mark from the halls of Congress to communities across the country, it provides an intimate window into the recovery of one of our nation’s most inspiring public figures and reveals how she and her husband have taken on the role of co-advocates for one of the defining issues of our time.

How Satan Fights offers a unique military intelligence analysis of how Satan and his demonic army will wage war against mankind, using the same unclassified intelligence process that is used by the US Armys military intelligence corps today. Author Mark Kelly is a Christian who served as a tactical intelligence officer for thirteen years; he now presents an investigation of the war from biblical times through today, providing a deeper knowledge of our enemy, Satan. He explains the combat strength of Satans demonic army, their arrangement on the battlefield, their political and military command structure, their strengths and weaknesses, and their mission on earth. With analysis based on information found in the Holy Scriptures, How Satan Fights considers what Satan intends to do with God if he wins the war. Kelly reveals Satans military doctrines and explores how he has used these doctrines from the time of Adam to the present day. More important, he demonstrates that Satan uses the same tactics of yesterday against the faithful Christians of today. Through this study, you can gain increased understanding of the war that Satan waged against Jesus and the apostles. This war is real, and it is being waged all around us. We must understand our enemy and his tactics if we, through the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, are to defeat him.
