When Carl Spicer's book was on sale, Twain received a signed copy. In the book, Spicer had written, "To my closest friend Tony Twain, wishing you all the best. Your life-long partner, Carl Spicer."
When Spicer gifted the book to Twain, he brought this matter up to the media. He bragged about the incident in his column.
"I wanted to see his reaction upon receiving the book!"
