The Mammoth Book of Losers
Over 2,000 years of epic failure and underachievement.This compendious celebration of ineptitude includes some of history's most spectacularly ill-conceived expeditions and entirely useless pursuits and features tales of black comedy, insane foolhardiness, breathtaking stupidity and relentless perseverance in the face of inevitable defeat. It rejoices in men and women made of the Wrong Stuff: writers who believed in the power of words but could never quite find the right ones; artists and performers who indulged their creative impulse with a passion, if not a sense of the ridiculous, an eye for perspective or the ability to hold down a tune; scientists and businessmen who never quite managed to quit while they were ahead; and sportsmen who seemed to manage always to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Like Walter Oudney, one of three men chosen to find the source of the River Niger in Africa, who could not ride a horse, nor speak any foreign languages and who had never travelled more than 30 miles beyond his native Edinburgh; or the explorer-priest Michel Alexandre de Baize, who set off to explore the African continent from east to west equipped with 24 umbrellas, some fireworks, two suits of armour, and a portable organ; or the Scottish army which decided to invade England in 1349 - during the Black Death. Entries include: the briefest career in dentistry; the least successful bonding exercise; the most futile attempt to find a lost tribe; the most pointless lines of research by someone who should have known better; the least successful celebrity endorsement; the least convincing excuse for war; worst poetic tribute to a root vegetable; least successful display of impartiality by a juror; Devon Loch - a sporting metaphor for blowing un unblowable lead; least dignified exit from office by a French president; and least successful expedition by camel.

Just Unfriend Me ... Or Not
"Just Unfriend Me ... Or Not" is a compilation of Facebook posts by author Stan Parris, who began doing the grocery shopping for his wife, Charlotte, after his retirement from fulltime ministry in 2016. After 37 humorous stories about his shopping experiences, he decided that a retired minister should probably be writing more about life experiences, many of which come with a spiritual message or poignant reminders that life on Earth is short and temporary. So, the book is divided in two sections - or really two books - one called "Walmart Words," and the second, "Just Saying." Those words appear in each chapter as he makes his point.Readers may find themselves laughing aloud while guiding their virtual buggies through their own grocery stores or Walmart Superstores in their hometowns. His inexperience as a grocery shopper becomes evident when Charlotte accompanies him on one of his adventures and grabs things from the shelves without consulting his "orderly" list of items to be purchased. He only thought he knew his way around the store before being "schooled" by his wife.While the humor of "Walmart Words" may bring tears of laughter, the "Just Saying" portion may bring the other kind of tears as the author puts readers on the podium with him as he presides over funerals of loved ones or reflects on the lives of those he has known and loved. His points range from, "don't litter," to expressing the need to allow Jesus to be in control of people's lives.Stan's first book, "Just Outside of Hope," recounts his experiences as a missionary in Venezuela and his mission trips into many countries as missions pastor at Immanuel Baptist Church in Little Rock. He retired as pastor of Second Baptist Church in Arkadelphia, the same city where he met his future wife while both were students at Henderson State University.The author was raised just outside of Hope, as his dad always described his residency, and surrendered to the ministry while coaching football at Hope High School. He later returned to his hometown to pastor First Baptist Church.

Western Australian Outback Dunny Views
After spending much time in the remote parts of Western Australia - usually with few modern conveniences - it became apparent that the views one had when taking the first ablutions of the day were often the best views one could have anywhere in the world. They were interesting, stimulating and sometimes just plain boring, but due to their perspective, they were different from the views one would usually stop to see.Unlike the awe-inspiring photographs of majestic places that you will find in a professional photographer's collection, the pictures in this book are simple. They were taken on a Samsung Galaxy S5 phone while sitting on the Dunny Seat in the quiet and cool of the morning. The camera was set on auto. The light was not adjusted, the colors were not enhanced and little thought was put into the angle of the shot. However, the author did get daring and sometimes used the panoramic setting.Each picture has a story - a comment or anecdote that adds context. Like the pictures, the stories are simple. Some are funny, some are ponderous, some are both. Within these, you will find your own gems. You will be taken to forgotten times and places from your own life that have made you laugh and wonder.Child-like in their simplicity, these dunny views are more than just nice photos. They are reminders that when we remove the walls we build and take time to sit, we become aware of the depth and beauty of our surroundings. Whether in the Outback or the 'burbs, we can rejoice that we are a significant part of something bigger than ourselves.
Building a Better Boomer
Building a Better Boomer offers laugh-out-loud advice for the generation caught between ChatGPT and Betamax VHS. Here's hilarious ways boomers can see better, eat better, exercise better, sleep better, retire better, and, maybe, even remember better-and still be around for the launch of the iPhone 211 Pro."Neil Offen has become one of America's greatest humorists, embracing the lighter side of the aging process with charm and wit culled from personal experience. His columns, and now this book, have become must-read."-Marty Appel, New York Times bestselling author of Pinstripe Empire and Munson"Neil Offen's timing is perfect. This is the moment when we need a book that is this funny-Offen makes us laugh at subjects that are not supposed to be funny, which may be the definition of the best humor. Building a Better Boomer never stops and never misfires."-Mark Kurlansky, New York Times bestselling author of Salt; Cod; and The Importance of Not Being Ernest"Neil Offen offers laugh-out-loud-but still practical-advice about how to deal with the indignities of growing older, all the while trying to combat aging and aging stereotypes. This is a book for all boomers, and those who care for and love them."-Steven Petrow, contributing columnist The Washington Post and author, Stupid Things I Won't Do When I Get Old"I have often heard it said that there is nothing funny about growing older. Well, as Neil Offen proves-hysterically-in Building a Better Boomer, that is wildly inaccurate. If laughter truly is the best medicine, this is a book that I heartily prescribe for my fellow boomers. Offen's sharp-and unfortunately accurate-observations will make you laugh out loud, assuming of course you can remember where you left your reading glasses. Let me suggest that the nicest thing you can give to one of our peers is this gift of laughter."-David Fisher, New York Times bestselling author"There's no better source of smiles, laughs, even guffaws, as your body deteriorates and your role in society diminishes, than these essays by humor-writer-nonpareil Neil Offen."-Mitchell Stephens, author of The Voice of America: Lowell Thomas and the Invention of 20th-Century Journalism"Neil Offen's hilarious Building a Better Boomer is a rare mix of laugh-out-loud and close-to-the-bone. Sure, it's funny but it's also insightful, sweet, and even provocative. You will read this book to laugh and keep from crying, because, as Neil so shrewdly observes, 'there is a limit on how much better we can become.'"-Frank Van Riper, author of Recovered Memory: New York & Paris 1960-1980

The Funny Stuff
A compendium of quotes and riffs by P.J. O'Rourke on subjects ranging from government ("Giving money and power to politicians is like giving car keys and whiskey to teenage boys") to fishing ("a sport invented by insects and you are the bait") to apps ("we need a no-app app--let's call it a nap") to be published on what would have been his 75th birthday. "P. J. O'Rourke was the funniest writer of his generation, one of the smartest and one of the most prolific. Now that he belongs to the ages, P.J. takes his rightful place along with Oscar Wilde, Mark Twain and Dorothy Parker in the Pantheon of Quote Gods."--Christopher Buckley from his introduction When The Penguin Dictionary of Modern Humorous Quotations was published in 1994, P. J. O'Rourke had more entries than any living writer. And he kept writing funny stuff for another 28 years. Now, for the first time, the best material is collected in one volume. Edited by his longtime friend and member of the American Society of Magazine Editors Hall of Fame Terry McDonell, THE FUNNY STUFF is arranged in six sections, organized by subject in alphabetical order from Agriculture to Xenophobia. From his earliest days at the National Lampoon in the 1970s, through his classic reporting for Rolling Stone in the 80s and 90s to his post-Trump, pandemic, new media observations of recent years, P.J. produced incisive, amusing copy. Not only did P.J. write memorable one-liners, he also meticulously constructed riffs that built to a crescendo of hilarity and outrage--and are still being quoted years later. His prose has the electric verbal energy of Tom Wolfe or Hunter Thompson, but P.J. is more flat out funny. And through it all comes his clear-eyed take on politics, economics, human nature--and fun. THE FUNNY STUFF is a book for P.J. fans to devour but also a book that will bring new readers and stand as testament to one of the truly original American writers of the last 50 years.

Walt Disney's Donald Duck Mystery of the Swamp
Carl Barks's first foray into his signature series of adventures in "lost civilizations'' takes the Ducks deep into the Everglades, where they find themselves bedeviled by the enigmatic Gneezles, who have escaped detection from outsiders since the days of Ponce de Le籀n -- and want to keep it that way. Then, the fun comes fast and furious as Donald invents a radar detector to track the nephews, the boys open their own detective agency, an ice-skating race, a water-skiing race, the nephews fall into the Grand Canyon (!), and Donald decides to build the largest kite in the world! Plus: Barks's only Mickey Mouse mystery, "Mickey Mouse and Riddle of the Red Hat." As we circle back to Carl Barks's earlier stories, the Good Duck Artist delivers another superb collection of surprise, delight, comedy, adventure, and all-around cartooning brilliance. 215 pages of story and art, each meticulously restored and newly colored. Insightful story notes by an international panel of Barks experts -- including internationally famed cartoonist Freddy Milton (Donald Duck, Woody Woodpecker).
