This here is a follow-up to my first book, "Million Dollar Ideas".
Is it a thousand times greater than my first book as the title
indicates? The answer is yes. Should you buy a thousand copies of
my first book to balance the purchase of this book? If my math is
correct, the answer is yes. Thank you for your support. - Jake

"I will forever cherish the life lessons I learned from Mr.
Mitchell. I learned about love, about tragedy, about overcoming
setbacks and I learned about myself." Shannon Suess "I may not
remember all the poems we read in AP class, but I will remember the
man who taught me a lifelong love for poetry." Edward M. Shine "The
questions you ask are spiritual, they're real, they manifest
themselves in peculiar ways that we may only glimpse once, but
ponder for decades." Andrew Steel "I read the full book in only one
day These stories inspire me to do so much. I can't thank you
enough." Anthony Fertitta "I love all these stories so much, and
their meanings are poignant and relatable." Brendan Thomas Photos

Jeremy takes us back to another year of life as a gentleman farmer at Diddly Squat - what could possibly go wrong this time?
Welcome back to Clarkson's farm. At the end of Jeremy's first year, Diddly Squat farm rewarded him with profits of £144. And while he's mastered the art of moaning, challenges still abound.
Who knew loading a trailer was more demanding than flying a gunship? That cows were more dangerous than motor-racing? Or that it's easier to get planning permission for a nuclear power station than turning an old barn into a restaurant?
Life on Clarkson's farm may not always go according to plan. But not a day goes by when Jeremy can't say 'I've done a thing' and mean it...
Once upon a time, a young grey Rabbit explored a forgotten WW2
chemical dump. Being young and foolish he drank some sweet tasting
liquid. Very soon he was experiencing growing pains and, by the age
of one, was five feet eight inches high and talking English with a
South London accent. He called himself, rather un-originally, Bunny
Warren and become a bit of a Dick; a sleazy, alcoholic, wise
cracking, Private Eye. This is a report of one of the
investigations of Bunny Warren, the Strange Case of the Missing
Ginger. When a lady goes missing from a premier rate call line,
Bunny and his beautiful assistant Jane, go in search of her. Along
the way, they get drawn into a web of bad guys, fiesty females and
a very odd mad scientist.
Amid the ferment of dissent and the protests of heretics, the
church developed most significantly. This guide introduces that
history by looking at those periods.A variety of questions have
preoccupied Christian communities throughout history. Christians
have attempted to determine who Jesus is and whether his life and
teaching have global significance. They've battled over the nature
of salvation and the sources of authority for Christian belief and
practice. They've argued about the nature and purpose of the
Christian church and how is it to be organized. They've drawn
swords over the relationship between church and state. And they've
taken votes on who should be sainted and who should be
expelled.Focusing on sources of unity and division within the
church throughout its history, and some of the most and least
savory characters in the history, this guide provides an overview
of Christian responses to those and other formative questions, all
with the trademark Homebrewed Christianity wit and wisdom.
