Combining his signature curmudgeonly humor with, as Newsweek put
it, a "silly approach to upsetting topics," Tom Segura presents a
series of personal stories packed with the crazy characters and
strong opinions fans have come to know and love from his podcasts
and standup. The essays in I'd Like to Play Alone, Please feature
comedic tales from Tom's time on the road, his marriage, the trials
and tribulations of parenting young children and, perhaps most
memorably, his dad who, like any good Baby Boomer father, likes to
talk about his bowel movements and share graphic Vietnam stories at
inappropriate moments. It's enough to make anyone want some peace
and quiet. This book will have readers laughing out loud and
nodding in agreement with Segura's central message: in a world
where everyone is increasingly insane, sometimes you just need to
be alone.
Strictly for grown-ups! This saucy selection of puzzles puts the
tease in brain-teasers, and makes a racy replacement for life's
idle moments Put down your phone, tablet or smutty magazine and

puzzles. Whether you want to dive straight into the Bootylicious
Bottoms Word Search, test your logic with a Raunchy Riddler, or
even try your hand at the Sex Toys Sudoku, there are puzzles here
to tickle a whole range of fancies. Inside you will find a variety
of juicy puzzles, including these: Shuffle the letters of anagrams
to identify seriously smutty lingo Pair up the matching icons in
the playful picture puzzles Test your knowledge of everything
erotic with a range of titillating trivia Join up the dot-to-dots
to discover some sensual sex positions So, what are you waiting
for? If you like the idea of puzzles that are a bit more naughty
than they are nice, this is the perfect book for you.
After several years of writing newspaper columns, comments from
readers caused me to realize that a published book of these columns
might be welcomed by readers who wanted to read them again or give
them as gifts. My first two collections, J'Ever Notice? and 'Zat
Right? were well received. It is my wish that these stories will
bring my readers the same nostalgic entertainment and humor, both
of which are wonderfully healing. Let me tell you more country
stories about old tractors and cars, farming, kids, storms, time,
early radio programs, some old scary stories, teachers, cotton
gins, old diaries, how things were one hundred years ago, hard
doings, dry times, going from boom to bust, horses, dogs, trail
drives, and wash pots, as well as some others about reunions,
cemetery workings, going to church in the country, families and
kinfolks
TEAR DOWN THAT WALL OF GUILT
If you are trying to raise a respectful and respectable American
family and are embarrassed by the liberal media's filth and
perversion you and your children are subjected to on a daily basis,
remember one thing: Liberalism is at its core, licentious, morally
degrading and abusive to family life. To stop the abuse you must
embrace the truth: Conservatism conserves and protects family
values that have made America the shining beacon of Christian
family life.
To preserve the American family you must make a decision not
merely to eschew liberalism and degradation but to champion
conservatism and our traditional American values.
To do so you must first TEAR DOWN THAT WALL OF GUILT You must
know you are guilty of nothing that may have happened to a Negro,
Indian, Asian or Jew at any time in our recent or ancient past, and
you must stop bowing at the silly altar of political correctness.
You must regain your dignity, your individuality and your moral
certitude. You must rise up and be counted as an American heart and
soul, in spirit and purpose; willing to sacrifice whatever it takes
to preserve America as it was founded to be and for which so many
fought and died for it to be. Your children are counting on you.
They will not survive as free Americans without your courage and
your resolve. TEAR DOWN THAT WALL OF GUILT LET THE RECLAMATION OF
AMERICA BEGIN
Author Paul Palmer first began idolizing highway patrolmen when he
was a boy living in Gila Bend, Arizona. As the patrolmen stopped by
to visit his father, Paul soon realized that these brave men were
true heroes. He had no idea then that one day he would work with
the same men he held in such high esteem. As he shares a
chronological glimpse into the life and career of an Arizona
patrolman, Paul begins with his first job in 1966 as a dispatcher
in Holbrook, Arizona, where he jokes his best view of the town was
in his rearview mirror. While providing amusing portrayals of the
men and women he worked with, Paul relies on slightly exaggerated
real-life experiences to depict the wonderful, wild, and wacky
people who made up the Arizona Highway Patrol. Paul shares his
experiences of the next 40 years, serving in both civilian and
sworn capacities and how he developed lasting friendships with the
heroes who put their lives on the line every day to ensure the
safety of others. The Arizona Highway Patrol as I Disremember It
provides an unforgettable look at the humorous side of law
enforcement through the eyes of one of its own.
