The Essential Dykes to Watch Out for
Settle in to this wittily illustrated soap opera (Bechdel calls it "half op-ed column and half endless serialized Victorian novel") of the lives, loves, and politics of Mo, Lois, Sydney, Sparrow, Ginger, Stuart, Clarice, and the rest of the cast of cult-fav characters. Most of them are lesbians, living in a midsize American city that may or may not be Minneapolis. Bechdel's brilliantly imagined countercultural band of friends--academics, social workers, bookstore clerks--fall in and out of love, negotiate friendships, raise children, switch careers, and cope with aging parents. Bechdel fuses high and low culture--from foreign policy to domestic routine, hot sex to postmodern theory--in a serial graphic narrative "suitable for humanists of all persuasions."
#ShalomBayis
Mariage is fun. Marriage is exciting, and romantic, and magical. And it's also... not. It's the exhaustion of waking up at 4 a.m. for your newborn baby. It's the stress of bills, the pang of jealously, the mesh of personalities that don't always mesh. It's finding out that the guy you dated is different than the one you live with. That the woman you married isn't what she seemed. Welcome to shalom bayis.***Shalom Bayis: The Jewish religious concept of domestic harmony and good relations (or shalom) between husband and wife. These short stories highlight some tried and tested methods of attaining Shalom Bayis. Not all of them work... some even fail terribly. A humorous, uncensored, thought-provoking perspective.

The Vig
Peter Alson is having an early mid-life crisis: he's a 33-year-old Harvard grad who has suddenly run out of prospects. He can't seem to finish that novel; he and his girlfriend, Anna, have decided to call it quits (again); and worse, he's flat broke. So when he meets Michael, another Ivy Leaguer who's making a killing as a bookie, he does what any enterprising guy would do: he enters a life of crime, joining a bookmaking operation headed up by characters like Monkey and Steak Knife, where his real education begins. If you combined Basketball Diaries and A Fan's Notes with a dash of Damon Runyon, the result would be something like this-hilarious and heartbreaking-a book that has rightfully taken its place among the classics of down-and-out literature.

oh boy i am sad
I started writing these comics the night I got laid off - one after the other. they helped me shine a light on how I was feeling and turn a shitty situation into something productive. for the next year, I tried to make one comic a day, looking at sadness as an opportunity rather than an infliction. this all began in august 2019. I did not anticipate just how sad things were about to get...

Maxwell’s History of the World in 366 Lessons
Peter Maxwell is the History teacher you wish you'd had. If you meet anyone (and you will) who says 'I hate History. It's boring, ' they weren't taught by Mad Max. Many of you will know him as the crime-solving sleuth (along with his police-person wife, Jacquie) in the Maxwell series by M.J. Trow (along with his non-policeperson wife, Carol, aka Maryanne Coleman - uncredited!) but what he is paid to do is teach History. And to that end has brought - and continues to bring - culture to thousands. In his 'blog' (Dinosaur Maxwell doesn't really know what that is) written in 2012, the year in which the world was supposed to end, but mysteriously didn't, you will find all sorts of fascinating factoids about the only important subject on the school curriculum. So, if you weren't lucky enough to be taught by Max, or you've forgotten all the History you ever knew, here is your chance to play catch-up. The 'blog' has been edited by Maxwell's friend, the crime writer M.J. Trow, who writes almost as though he knows what the Great Man was thinking. As Maxwell himself has been known to say - Spooky!

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Senility
This book has been percolating in my subconscious for more than 70 years. It may have mellowed a little over the years, but has lost little of its relevance or bite. As one of the premiere procrastinators of this and over half of the last century, I put it off as long as I could but finally acquiesced and the final product is now in your hands. If not for political correctness, the book would be longer and possibly less relative. Jokes are multi-dimensional. For everyone they delight, they piss somebody off. It's a zero-sum game and we each identify with one side or the other. I found myself single again about 4 years ago, and moved half way across the state. One of the main advantages of a major move is that a brand new audience is right at hand. Over the last few years, quite a few of my new acquaintances have been telling me that I should write a joke book, and here it is.

Dear President Trump
Dear President Trump began with a seemingly futile protest letter about killer vending machines. It became a spirited work of individual expression and a lifeline for the author's sanity. In a collection of 50 satirical letters to the White House, first-time author William Friese channels his frustrations with President Trump's administration. Written from the viewpoint of an ardent supporter, the letters document major political events and comically highlight the Trump administration's tenure of dishonesty and incompetence.From Letter #8 - ArpaioObama and his administrators are children on the beach building sandcastles. One castle is Obamacare, another is Clean Energy, another is National Monuments, etc. ... Then you come walking along the beach, a big, tall, tough president, and kick over all the sandcastles. Funny! Right?! Pardoning Arpaio is like kicking over a Justice sandcastle. Except that castle was created by the Constitution.From Letter #23 - BridenstineBusiness Insider just published a shocking article about Jim Bridenstine, director of NASA. It said he changed his opinion on climate change because he "read a lot." Can you believe this? Somebody in your administration is reading and, worse, learning. You need to nip this outlandish behavior in the bud before it spreads to others in the administration.From Letter #28 - UnityI just heard that your theme for the State of the Union Address is going to be "Unity." I about fell out of my chair, laughing. I hope the State of the Union Address is full of jokes like that. Let me help a little. Instead of opening with the standard "The state of the union is strong," try "The state of the union is open." It's a little shutdown joke.From Letter #31 - "O Captain! My Captain!" I know you are upset about your impeachment. I would be too! Those stupid, lazy Democrats only brought two articles of impeachment. It's so unfair how they treat you. Andrew Johnson got eleven articles.From Letter #45 - Winter RulesAs of last month, you had made over 18,000 false and misleading claims -that is 15 per day. Simply amazing! No president will ever outdo that. I bet you are giving Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un a run for their money. Those two autocrats have it easy. They don't have to deal with the "fake" news like you do here. In their countries, they have real fake news.

And is the "Old Bear of the Senate" planning to take on American's unstable tycoon-cum-president? Or is he a latter-day Guy Fawkes, planning to blow the whole thing up? HAINT PUNCH is a cocktail of sleazy kingmakers, victim dealers, hashtag crusaders, dateless nymphomaniacs, and bourbon-soaked aristocrats. Topical and hilarious, touching a deep and widespread feeling that we must cry for the current state of affairs, or have a stiff drink about it.
Ogden O. Henry Op. Ed.
Light Verse with Attitude Ogden O. Henry Op. Ed. is a collection of clever, concise, poetic commentary on Donald Trump and other political and public figures, and reflections, by turns humorous and moving, on current social conditions and shared life experience. Included is an array of poetic forms that summons surprise, provokes laughter, and kindles insight, inspired by the ingenious humor, imaginative wordplay, and unexpected endings of legendary writers Ogden Nash and O. Henry.Short verses, often with a final punch, are featured in this volume, and comments on politics and social justice are spliced with observations on the customary and familiar; neither category separated by chapter or section, as an acknowledgment that the influences in our lives are intrinsically interwoven. Beyond their wider purpose, the poems are serious and comical, succinct and captivating. Where representing an Op. Ed. point of view, they are progressive in tone and liberal in voice; offering ideas in sound-byte format and inviting participation in syncopated quick-steps, appealing in cadence, endearing in carriage.Blink and the levity's gone viral.
History of the Conflict between Religion and Science
John William Draper (May 5, 1811 - January 4, 1882) was an English-born American scientist, philosopher, physician, chemist, historian and photographer. He is credited with producing the first clear photograph of a female face (1839-40) and the first detailed photograph of the moon in 1840. He was also the first president of the American Chemical Society (1876-77) and a founder of the New York University School of Medicine. One of Draper's books, the History of the Conflict between Religion and Science, popularised the conflict thesis proposing intrinsic hostility in the relationship between religion and science. It was widely read and was translated into several languages. His son, Henry Draper, and his granddaughter, Antonia Maury, were astronomers, her younger sister, Carlotta Maury, was a paleontologist, his eldest son, John Christopher Draper, was a chemist, and son Daniel Draper, was a meteorologist.

History of the Conflict between Religion and Science
John William Draper (May 5, 1811 - January 4, 1882) was an English-born American scientist, philosopher, physician, chemist, historian and photographer. He is credited with producing the first clear photograph of a female face (1839-40) and the first detailed photograph of the moon in 1840. He was also the first president of the American Chemical Society (1876-77) and a founder of the New York University School of Medicine. One of Draper's books, the History of the Conflict between Religion and Science, popularised the conflict thesis proposing intrinsic hostility in the relationship between religion and science. It was widely read and was translated into several languages. His son, Henry Draper, and his granddaughter, Antonia Maury, were astronomers, her younger sister, Carlotta Maury, was a paleontologist, his eldest son, John Christopher Draper, was a chemist, and son Daniel Draper, was a meteorologist.

Torts "R" Us - A Legal Farce
"The first thing we do, let's pay all the lawyers."--William ShakespearePatrick A. Peters ("Pap") and his twin brother Prescott U. Peters ("Pup") are lawyers with a distinctive eye for opportunity. Pap convinces Pup who is a good lawyer despite having gone to Yale Law School that they should leave their respective big-firm practices in New York City to start up a hopefully lucrative practice as plaintiffs' class action lawyers.The brothers meet a variety of clients, judges, and lawyers as they embark on a resourceful and unique approach to lawyer-client relationships all inspired by actual court cases. Written with humor and parlance that only comes from a depth of legal experience, Morrison captures the trials and tribulations of human behavior that strikes a chord with every reader.
Monstrous Depravity
John Gould believes that food should consist mostly of good things to eat. Here, he summons up, with a generous garnish of risible anecdote, an earlier day when natural foods were the only kind there were and meals were lovingly prepared. Recalling simpler days, Gould waxes nostalgic about such subjects as bread, coffee, and molasses cookies. Being of practical mind, he even throws in a few mouth-tingling recipes--from custard pies to clambakes. Rounded out with humorous drawings from his old friend F.W. Saunders, this is a truly original take on Yankee cookery.

Coyote Rules of Golf
An extremely funny illustrated book about how Coyotes affect the game of golf for amateurs. It finally explains why things go so very badly for amateur golfers as they try to master the game. Why do they hit the ball perfectly on the driving range but so pathetically on the first tee. Or why they putt so well on the practice green but exhibit all the skills of a blacksmith on the course. The illustrated Coyotes "come to life" for the reader and showcase their mischievous personalities. The book challenges the golfer to play by the Coyote Rules of Golf (CRG) and thus obtain Lower Scores, Faster Play, and More Fun.
Humor - A Friend in the Library - Volume VI - A Practical Guide to the Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, James Russell Lowell, John Greenleaf Whittier,
Eva March Tappan's "A Friend in the Library" series is a comprehensive guide to the writings of six seminal American writers, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, James Russell Lowell, John Greenleaf Whittier, and Oliver Wendell Holmes. In volume six, Tappan examines humour, looking at instances of comedy and wit in the works of these writers, as a well as looking for other clues as to how they view the concept in general. Highly recommended for students of American literature. March Tappan (1854 - 1930) was an American author and teacher. Other notable works by this author include: "Adventures & Achievements" (1900), "Poems & Rhymes" (1900), and "In the Days of Queen Elizabeth" (1902). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author. This book was first published in 1909.
