Azra Kononovich's got a lot to handle when she arrives in New York City with her two beckering best friends. She thinks she is about to have the ultimate experience in her life. With a big city comes a big dream. The three girls are going to spread their wings and live like the wild girls they always dream to be. Now all they have to do is just say 'yes' to everything. Yes to adventures, dream jobs, and probably romance. Easy, right? Wrong. Little did they know that being an adult takes more than just being one. They soon find themselves in situations where they need experiences and talents. But where do they get the experience without having experienced it first? And none of them have any useful talents. Dealing with a cynical money-crazed landlady is another problem. To top it all, they fall for the same girl. Under that much stress, will the trio fall apart or can they hold it together to conquer life itself?

Author Vincent Yanez never planned on working more than a couple of jobs in his life. Unfortunately, he was born with a short attention span and an inability to stay anywhere that annoyed him.

mated! Ballad: TO MY BRIDE--(WHOEVER SHE MAY BE.) Oh! little maid!--(I do not know your name Or who you are, so, as a safe precaution I'll add)--Oh, buxom widow! married dame! (As one of these must be your present portion) Listen, while I unveil prophetic lore for you, And sing the fate that Fortune has in store for you. You'll marry soon--within a year or twain - A bachelor of circa two and thirty: Tall, gentlemanly, but extremely plain, And when you're intimate, you'll call him -BERTIE.- Neat--dresses well; his temper has been classified As hasty; but he's very quickly pacified. You'll find him working mildly at the Bar, After a touch at two or three professions, From easy affluence extremely far, A brief or two on Circuit---soup- at Sessions; A pound or two from whist and backing horses, And, say three hundred from his own resources. Quiet in harness; free from serious vice, His faults are not particularly s
La obra más importante de este genial periodista estadounidense.Nacido en 1842 en Ohio, y desaparecido misteriosamente en México hacia 1913, Bierce fue un escritor ácido, cínico, desenfadado e inteligente.

This is a compendium about a battle with depression, anxiety, hot weather, and militant introversion. It is also about plumbers, spiders, loud neighbours, video games, books, and cats. This book is not a therapy book for those who suffer with depression or anxiety, nor is this book intended as a disparagement or a glorification of my mental and social difficulties; it is a record of how I have learned to cope with them, and is intended as a comedy not a tragedy. I invite everyone to laugh along with me through one of the worst years of my life, and hope that by reading about my tribulations, you will come to understand why I hate summer.
Jonathan Goodfellow is an accountant. One day God looked down upon the earth and saw that he was meek and mild and thought that it was a good thing. This was the start of the disruption of Jonathan's quiet life and began the series of misadventures that then took place. Misadventures as varied as being hit on the head by a one legged, one eyed dwarf wielding a golf club, dying, meeting God in heaven and being offered the choice of carrying God's message and reforming the human race or going to hell.Jonathan becomes the new Messiah and makes desperate attempts to convince people of his bona fides. Ranged against him are a number of forces that include The Legal Ruler's Society, a group of lawyers who have been in league with Satan for many years and who are plotting to take over the world in the name of evil when the moment is right.Satan, like God, decides to leave human beings to their own ends and offers the world to the lawyers if they leave him alone to fulfil his twenty-year-old ambition to break one hundred and twenty at golf. Satan put the idea of the game into the heads of the Geordies as a means of driving people mad and getting them to do terrible things to one another. Hell has been converted into a golf course and everyone there must play two rounds a day. No one is allowed to break one hundred and twenty on pain of terrible torture.Along the way Jonathan does make converts. Most of them are the poor and downtrodden, the criminal and the insane. The one exception is his main disciple, Marcie Mabelgrove, chief investigative reporter with the Daily Bugle, and love blossoms in Jonathan's lonely life.In all of the mayhem that takes place, there remains the voice of sanity in the form of Jonathan's two white, albino, Himalayan, dwarf rabbits. Bugs and Thumper have been deputised by God as the communication point for Jonathan, and God has granted them the power to speak to Jonathan. Like all rabbits, Bugs and Thumper are practical and down to earth creatures who are not swayed by the tempestuous events around them.The book reaches its climax in the last battle of good versus evil on earth as the evil lawyers, led by the portly, cigar smoking, cask wine drinking, Jones P. senior, battle a group of aged pensioners on the banks of the Murray River.

The Souls of Black Folk is a pivotal collection not only within the oeuvre of W. E. B. Du Bois' work, but in the whole of the history of sociology and as a mantlepiece of African-American literary history. Drawn from many previously published essays, Du Bois' work reveals the way in which America was reconstructing and redefining itself as a country and culture in the wake of the Civil War forty years prior. Drawn from sociological data as well as his own personal experiences, poetry, history, and song, Du Bois weaves an intricate portrait of African-American culture and life at the beginning of the twentieth century.

If you love trains and the allure of the rails, you will savor these tales of life as a railroader. Train of Thought captures memories of an earlier time on the glorious Santa Fe Railroad. When he signed on with the railroad in 1971, college boy Terry Beck wasn't looking for anything beyond a summer job. Instead, he found his place in a time honored lineage of railroaders that some think may have been the last of a disappearing breed. Once he figured out he needed to buy a bag and keep it packed, his adventures began and continued nearly 40 years. Besides his own exploits and lessons, he recounts stories that have been handed down by the people he worked with. Some of them may even be true.

The limerick is thought to take its name from the City of Limerick in Eire. It became popular in the mid-nineteenth century after the London-born poet Edward Lear published his Book of Nonsense. So it's a type of poem named after an Irish city and it was first popularised by an Englishman. But what do you call a limerick that's been written by a Scotsman? Why, a McLIMERICK, of course! COONT THUM THIRTEEN is a collection of more than 100 McLimericks. They've all been penned by the Ayrshire writer and poet Angus Shoor Caan as a follow-up to his twelve earlier collections, which together amount to well over 1,000 published McLimericks. In true Scots fashion, the McLimericks in all thirteen collections are witty, irreverent and sometimes bawdy. In fact, we at McStorytellers, the website dedicated to showcasing the work of Scottish-connected short story writers, were so tickled by them that we rushed to publish them. We hope you'll be tickled by them as well. So please delve into COONT THUM THIRTEEN. And if you like what you read go grab copies of those earlier collections.

The Devil's Dictionary was begun in a weekly paper in 1881, and was continued in a desultory way at long intervals until 1906. In that year a large part of it was published in covers with the title The Cynic's Word Book, a name which the author had not the power to reject or happiness to approve. To quote the publishers of the present work: "This more reverent title had previously been forced upon him by the religious scruples of the last newspaper in which a part of the work had appeared, with the natural consequence that when it came out in covers the country already had been flooded by its imitators with a score of 'cynic' books-The Cynic's This, The Cynic's That, and The Cynic's t'Other. Most of these books were merely stupid, though some of them added the distinction of silliness. Among them, they brought the word 'cynic' into disfavor so deep that any book bearing it was discredited in advance of publication."
