Graveyard From A Distant Dream by D.R. Carenza Pdf

Can science offer continued life? Is there life, after death? Is there really a God and a soul? In the case of Mr. Bradley (Buddy) Karr, a man with little more than the ambition to get a good night’s sleep, these mysteries come to surface in the twisted events of his five recurring dreams; each traveling a path to question science and faith. Why can he recall the events of these nocturnal adventures, but not comprehend a single word of dialog. Buddy undergoes sleep observation tests with speech inducement drugs. The analytic comparisons of the gibberish recorded by the clinic and his clear awakened narrations provide clues, but they are still unable to decipher any word meanings. Buddy’s tapes are sent to linguists and cryptologists for translation whereby a startling composition is finally created; one that generates broader questions. Buddy begins his own quest to locate sources ignoring advice and warnings from his doctors and friends. Aided by of a fair-weathered friendly clergyman: Reverend John Benson, the two set out to follow clues as Buddy becomes obsessed with the pursuit of a resolution that might cost him his life and endanger his friends and colleagues. Time has become a factor as Reverend Benson ponders his own beliefs. Failure in his mission could bring him to say goodbye to a healthy vibrant young victim of an ungodly mistake .

Hit Hard by Joey Kramer Pdf

In 1997, amid Aerosmith's sold-out world tour and number one album release, word about Joey's troubles was reported in the press.Despite the advice he had received to play it down, Joey revealed in an interview his ongoing struggles with depression. The response from fans and people battling those same internal demons was overwhelming. Joey—who has been the drummer in Aerosmith since it was founded in 1970 and is the first member of the band to release his own book—now tells the complete story: the early days of the band, glamorous drug-addled events leading up to their eventual sobriety, battles within his family and among bandmates, and the explosive internal dynamics in Aerosmith that continue to unleash a fury of endless creativity. This is not just another rock 'n' roll memoir. In addition to the never-before-told Aerosmith war stories that abound in the book, Hit Hard unpacks the history of a rock star who was both fragile and tough, who after years of insane wildness became willing to accept help and finally kick a serious alcohol and drug addiction, only to find that the real terrors and hard work were still ahead. It's the story of an average kid from an average American suburb who went through physical and emotional trauma. It's about years of depression and the nervous breakdown at the height of the band's comeback success. Ultimately, Hit Hard is about how Joey recognized his confusion between love and abuse, awakening to the kind of self-acceptance and compassion that make relationships possible in the "real world" as a member of the biggest band in American history.

Russell, editor of Strange, Weird & Wonderful Magazine ”Author Arnold has a deft touch with horror that will leave a chill in your spine, but without the violence and gore of much modern horror. The stories remind me of Ray Bradbury at his darkest with their ability to play on the difference between what we know might happen and what we want to happen. These are complex tales with layers below the surface enjoyment of a story well written.” Armchair Interviews

One Way Out by Jim Azzarelli Pdf

As a young baby boomer, son of a World War II veteran, grandson of a Sicilian immigrant, and part of a successful family construction business, Jim Azzarelli's future looked bright indeed. But no one could have prepared him for the vast changes he was about to experience. One Way Out is one baby boomer's story of living through a time when America experienced tumultuous change. A third generation Italian-American, Azzarelli made it his mission to follow in his family's footsteps and make his own way in the construction business. But the political, social, and cultural upheaval of his generation would greatly impact his future. Azzarelli protested the Vietnam War and narrowly missed being drafted toward the end of the conflict. He bore witness to Woodstock, the Watergate scandal, the Civil Rights movement, and the death of John F. Kennedy. Yet despite such life-altering events, Azzarelli clung to the old world values of his grandfather and his father-the importance of hard work and putting family first. He founded his own construction business in Florida, married, and raised a family of four. Full of wit and wisdom, One Way Out brings to life the turbulence of a generation and reveals how one man learned that in planning for the future, one must always consider the past.
