They chronicle the political events of the times, mainly the Clinton presidential years, as seen through the eyes of a diehard Democrat living in a Republican stronghold. Passionately partisan, they present a folk narrative of history for political "junkies."

More wit and humor from the author of "Over the Hill Without a Paddle: And Other Signs of Confusion in a New Millennium," This time he gives us his skewed take and observations on everything with titles from A to Z - except for nine letters in between that apparently aren't that funny - and including the numbers One, Two, Three, and the words First and Second. Check it out. Among the subjects that catch his fancy are wives, husbands, children, grandchildren, doctors, hornets, birds, ants, dogs, morticians and sex. He pitches shows to TV programmers, points out a shortcut to young men in the back seats of cars, and scrutinizes both Family Jewels and Amazon Undies. All of which - and more - go to prove that even someone who has inched his way over the hill and then rolled down the other side can still find plenty to look at if he just lands facing up.

Here again, I will be gracing another major subject with my irreproachable wisdom and my brain-flipping intelligence, in this 4,630 word book. I doubt that there is a single evolutionist who can match wits with me because I am a student of life and of nature. My own self-administered studies are far greater than those that can be offered by universities and schools (not to degrade the importance of them for most people) or by attaining educational degrees and credentials (also very important for the right people). I need none of these things personally because I have already attained an education on my own, that far exceeds those that would provide me an officially-recognized expertize on any of the subjects I address. No, it is rather my own students - those who follow my written dissertations and teachings, who supply me with the credentials of an expert. Now here we go, into those golden gates of my chapters, that will forever change your brain for the better. You will in fact become 'brain-flipped," so brace yourself and delve into my words of infallible wisdom I hereby grant you permission to proceed TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1 The Importance of Bananas and Monkeys Among Evolutionists CHAPTER 2 The Theory of Evolution Makes Money for Scientists CHAPTER 3 My Interview with Bigfoot ("I'm Not a Missing Link" He Says ) CHAPTER 4 If We're Animals We Shouldn't Have Morals In Conclusion **The History Behind these Comedy/Satire Books**: While my largest base of book titles are on health disorder subjects, I also have a significant number of business-related titles published, as well as many on Christian Bible theology. Before I began publishing in any of these serious genres, which I do feel are my most important ones, I tried my hand at comedy via online articles I wrote in years previous (I created a few short stories during this period as well). Having kept these comedy pieces I wrote, in saved files after taking them offline, I decided to revive them by publishing them in eBook and paperback form. I did have to tweak them and edit them a bit but I managed to give them all that Percy P. III flavor. Of course as real the writer of them (James M. Lowrance), I think they're pretty funny and relatives who I shared them with, confirmed this evaluation -- so I decided to offer them to the world. With them being so different from my serious subject books, I assigned a pen name to them as well, being "Percyvelle Pennington the Third." He seems more like the guy who wrote them, than I do. Percy is a snide type guy and he is arrogant; traits that I hopefully never display in real life He does make his points known in his memoirs but in strangely comical ways. A "cheerful heart is a good medicine" according to the Holy Bible, and "laughter is the best medicine" according to Reader's Digest. My thoughts were, that if I could take a few serious or controversial subjects via my compiled articles and create a little comedy from them that makes people smile or laugh, it would be something worth publishing. With the debates going on within these subjects, between people expressing the pros and cons of them, it is my hope that I can lighten the rhetoric a bit by injecting some humor into them. These booklets ARE NOT intended to offend anyone and if you'll notice, I make fun of everyone in them, via my alter writing personality -- Percy P. III. It is my hope that readers find the medicine of laughter and cheer within the pages of them, so that they can escape the stressors of life for just a little while

Most of Shorty's time was spent galloping through fields and jumping fences. That was the only world he knew and he was quite content with it.

Then a tragic accident happened, leaving him lame and scarred, which turned his world upside down. Abandoned, he was left outside, cold and hungry, feeling sad and lonely. He endured a heartbreaking and abusive life until it got to the point where he didn't want to continue this life he was living any more.

It was at that point when a strange man came and rescued Shorty and took him to a home of a family with children who loved him and thought he was beautiful, regardless of his scars and lame leg. His life would now be filled with all kinds of friends, of love, laughter, sadness and tears. This is the story about Shorty's life on the farm.

4200 gigs. 250 Film and TV song placements. 30 years in music. These are some of the bullet points in the resume of author/musician Bill Cinque. THE AMAZING ADVENTURES OF A MARGINALLY SUCCESSFUL MUSICIAN is an educational and entertaining look at the world of music.

Spanning seven decades from his 1940s childhood in Rochester, New York, to his retirement in Southern California, "Sleeping with Lumbago" documents the events and experiences of author Sam R. Culotta's life. He recalls his Catholic school days, his family's migration west, his teens, his military service, and, most notably, the dynamics of his Sicilian-American family.

With his signature sardonic wit and good-natured criticism, he takes on nuns, schoolmates, friends, and neighbors as well as more than a few professions, religious institutions, social conventions and, of course, himself. In the story "And Then There Were Two," Culotta discusses the unusual and embarrassing discovery made during a physical exam at his Catholic elementary school when he was in sixth grade. "Caution: Friends May Be Dangerous to Your Health" describes a narrow escape from injury, accident, and mayhem when his buddy Don pulls a dangerous stunt in his 1949 Mercury.

"Sleeping with Lumbago" presents a collection of humorous personal essays that document the unexceptional life of an unexceptional man with an exceptional amount of wit and discontent.

This "dictionary" is intended to be, in jest, a reply to the French and their constant attitudes of redundancy toward Americans and the U.S.A. The author felt it was necessary for someone to show them just how silly they are!
