Lotsa Laughs by Ben Sheldon Pdf

LOTSA LAUGHS is a book of jokes and hilarious observations, which Ben Sheldon had recorded in his note books, over several years. Its a very funny collection of mostly one- or two-liners. Each one of them was original or independently conceived at the time of recording and dating in the authors note books. References to real known personalities are not necessarily true, but is done in parody, within protected free speech on satire. There are seven sections to the book, labeled Chapters, in the Index. Each chapter is aimed at the reader who would enjoy predominantly that kind of humor. For instance, one may laugh at the unique observations in politics, but pass on to another friend or family member some funny aspects of different faiths or innocent, lighthearted takeoffs on ethnicity. A prudish reader may want to save the chapter on bedroom humor for an unblushing neighbor. In any case, said bedroom chapter is written in good taste, with no pornography. The eclectic, broad-minded reader will, of course, enjoy all the levels of humor in this unique joke book, Lotsa Laughs. For those who love the creative use of words in different unexpected contexts, there is a chapter on Tongue Twisters. Another chapter is about Fun with Words. All the humor in Lotsa Laughs is innocent and harmless fun at ourselves and our social, political and religious mores. It is meant to laugh WITH and NOT AT the subjects of humor. Lotsa Laughs would also make a good reference book for speakers seeking an attention-getting funny opening remark for their speech. A future Henny Youngman may find the one-liners in Lotsa Laughs a good fit for their training manual.

Do Not Go Gentle by David MacCuish Pdf

Do Not Go Gentle, first published in 1960, is a poignant novel about the U.S. Marines in World War II. The book focuses on Norman MacLeod, growing up in the tough Depression-era town of Butte, Montana. After his father succumbs to a mining-related disease, young Norman leaves school and also begins working in the copper mines. Following the death of his closest friend in an mine accident and the moving of his mother and sister to relatives back East, Norman enlists in the Marines. The book follows MacLeod through boot camp, life on and off base, and then to the South Pacific where MacLeod and his fellow Marines face both their fears and the Japanese. On leave in the U.S., Norm visits the wife of a killed comrade, and begins a relationship with her. Filled with gritty scenes and no-holds-barred dialog, Do Not Go Gentle remains a minor classic in the field of novels about men at war.

Chameleon by Nowick Gray Pdf

A spin under the new VR headgear sends programmer Joe Norton into fictional territory: an AI game of tough love, mind control, and true choices. At stake are Norton’s relationships, career and sanity. He has a new mission to fulfill—but his gift-wrapped scope rifle came with no instructions, no target or source, only a single bullet. Norton chases red herrings into dimensional cul-de-sacs, seeks escape, and is tangled tighter in the net. Is the only way out, to go further in? Caught between worlds with a menu of bad choices, Norton must find his way back to the "home brain," to beat the rogue cybervirus at its own game. Published in earlier editions as PsyBot and FutureCon, Chameleon is recast in Vancouver in 1992, as a throwback to the cyberpunk era, a retro dive into the underworld of mind-control black ops, and a literate interface with emerging transhumanist technologies and agendas.

The Essential Mickey Rooney by James L. Neibaur Pdf

Mickey Rooney is a cinematic icon whose career lasted from the silent era into the twenty-first century. From the shorts he made as Mickey McGuire to supporting roles in such films as Night at the Museum, Rooney had more than 300 film appearances to his credit. Mickey Rooney was not just a movie star, he was the most popular film performer for several years in a row in the 1930s. In addition to his four Academy Award nominations, Rooney received two special Oscars, including an honorary award for his variety of memorable performances spanning several decades. In The Essential Mickey Rooney, James L. Neibaur examines more than sixty feature films in which the actor appeared, from starring roles in Boys Town, Babes in Arms, and The Human Comedy to acclaimed supporting performances in The Bold and the Brave and The Black Stallion. In addition to familiar works like the Andy Hardy comedies or musicals opposite Judy Garland, lesser known films like Quicksand and Drive a Crooked Road are discussed as examples of the masterful performances he offered again and again. An actor of rare talent and unrestrained exuberance, Rooney appeared so often on film that it probably is impossible to view every performance of his career—one that lasted longer than any other actor in Hollywood. While minor roles are not discussed here, all of his vintage works are, making The Essential Mickey Rooney an indispensable resource for anyone wanting to learn more about the best work of this film icon.
