What is Eyes Right all about?

I am Ed Linz and am passionate about life, if only because I nearly died at age 50, but was saved by the generosity of a family who donated their daughter's heart at their time of grief for my transplant operation .  I currently live in Maine and Virginia.  Most of the articles here have been published in THE EXCHANGE, a newspaper published tin Spokane, Washington.

 My goal is to share experiences which I have been gathering around the world since 1979.  The first Eyes Right column was written on a napkin at a bar in the Georgetown section of Washington, DC.  Others detail places I have visited around the world (in all continents except Antarctica). Each of the articles is datelined and dated based on location and time where written.

I have tried to make Eyes Right articles interesting.  Sometimes they have a political tone, other times are just fun, other times somber, and always opinionated and informative.  My pen name, Eyes Right, does not reflect my political leaning, but is a play on my Kentucky roots when, as boys in argument, we would often scream at our buddies, "I's right!, you're not"

BACKGROUND INFO

The first Eyes Right (Beltway bandits) was written on a napkin in the 1789 bar in the Georgetown section of Washington, D.C. in October 1979 as a way to keep awake.  I was in a difficult phase of life while studying for an intensive examination to become Commanding Officer of a nuclear powered submarine.  On a whim, the following day I mailed the napkin to my best friend, Aaron Spurway, who was the publisher of a small paper in Spokane, Washington.  To my surprise, he offered to print it in his paper, THE EXCHANGE.   Thus began my Eyes Right writing experiences.


The articles were written off and on as time permitted with significant gaps due to my personal circumstances.  Most were published in THE EXCHANGE.  None were written from 1991 to 2004 due to my being diagnosed with a deadly disease in May 1991 and given two years to live.   Fortunately, I was able to receive a life-saving heart transplant operation on 9/9/94 from a 33-yr old donor named Monica.  I had begun writing a book about my medical experiences in late 1993 while I was still not certain that I would live.  I completed this book, Life Row, in 1997 and immediately began researching a book on the Great Depression, They Never Threw Anything Away.  I returned to classroom teaching in 1999, and did not resume writing Eyes Right columns until the summer of 2004.  Since then, the articles have appeared on a regular basis.   It is my hope to be able to continue sharing these thoughts and experiences for the foreseeable future.  My books are available on Amazon and at my website www.edlinz.com
