our thriftiness. There is so much emphasis on living a Hollywood
lifestyle that the appreciation of hard-earned money is easily
forgotten. On the Canadian Prairies we value what we make and each
of us comes up with ways to cut corners and save pennies. This book

Winnipegger: -Do you know how to ask for a discount and get it? How
about getting something free because a store screwed up? -Ways to

you saved?
We are so overwhelmed by the glitz and glamor of the celebrity
lifestyle, but how often is the emphasis put on being cheap? Some
people try to gussy it up by calling it "thrifty" but isn't that
just a rich person's cover-up to not sound like a regular person?
Embrace your inner cheapskate, girl. Be proud of every penny you
save.
A gripping story of a young man's bout with his battles in real
life and a fictitious reality. Unable to separate the make believe
from the everyday world, the struggle of radio personality Darcy
Buckner is as touching as it is tragic. From the highs of career
success to the lows of sociopathic depression, Buckner gives people
a reason to love him and hate him. Despite constant rejection from
family, Buckner is convinced he can overcome and lead a happy life,
although the paths he takes have more than a few bumps along the
way. Buckner follows two life paths: a make-believe world where he
is a celebrity, and in the real world where he is becoming a
well-known personality. The two worlds often remain separate, but
frequently collide to create disastrous results. Being socially
inept, Buckner sabotages relationships and thinks hatred will get
people to like him. Whether it is turning on his best friend and
secretly revealing her betrayal or owning a successful media
company that sees him mingling with celebrities on the red carpet,
Buckner never knows how he will react and if life will come
crashing down. A Double Dose of Sociopath traces the emotionally
unstable journey of Darcy Buckner, examines his dynamic
relationships and his extreme reactions to the self-created worlds
around him.
A gay 25-year-old virgin is unheard of these days. But yes, that is
what I am. Fortunately for you I am documenting my mission to go
from inexperienced gay boy to sexpert in just 40 days. Every day I
am determined to try something new. Whether it is new ways to
pleasure myself or figuring out how to do it to others, this
detailed journal gives you insight into my life as I figure out my
sexual identity. Like many gay guys I'm eager to determine whether
I am a top or bottom. It seems like that is the way guys are
grouped and find compatibility. I realize that's such a stereotype
but it's also embarrassing at my age to say I don't know what my
preference is. It's not like I'm going to tell a guy to get lost
because we like the same thing. I'm not that judgmental that I
won't hang out with a guy because we're both tops or both bottoms.
And who knows, maybe he feels he's one over the other because he
hasn't experimented to find out what works for him. I'm at least
trying it all and deciding along the way.
