Legal Disclaimer

At the beginning of each of my novels, you will find this legal disclaimer.
This book is a work of fiction based in part on the author’s personal experiences and those of his fellow delivery drivers.  The names, characters, places, incidents, dialogue, and plot are products of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously.  Any resemblance to actual persons, events, or companies is entirely coincidental.

This legal disclaimer is standard for any work of fiction and is a necessary evil for an author in a society where anyone can and will sue over any little thing with which they disagree.  I also make it clear that while I make many references to real places, past and present, throughout the story, these places are used fictitiously.  To the owners, employees, and customers of these establishments, no offense is ever intended.
