Clough was raised. Rural Story Book: Memories and Fabrications helps readers see the freedom and closeness rural living provided in the 1950s. Some accounts are unique to that era. Others tell of activities and adventures two brothers find as they interact with others and their early life settings. In the author’s words, “The ‘new jeans’ story actually happened and I still have trouble believing we actually did that stuff!” About the Author Lance J. Clough’s hobbies consist of antiquing and chair refinishing—if needed—and seat caning/weaving. It relaxes him. Clough was an antique dealer for a short while, but personal health issues made him discontinue it. Reading is his all-encompassing activity. Clough enjoys books from about 1860 to1960. He likes reading American History, especially WWI. He and his wife also enjoy traveling by auto to Southern and Western states. He has family in Texas and Nevada, and grandchildren fill much of his time. His life’s work involves food processing and the last thirty-two years of his work history involves federal and state inspection activities.

Download or read book Lousy Sex written by Gerald N. Callahan and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Lousy Sex Gerald Callahan explores the science of self, illustrating the immune system’s role in forming individual identity. Blending the scientific essay with deeply personal narratives, these poignant and enlightening stories use microbiology and immunology to explore a new way to answer the question, who am I? “Self” has many definitions. Science has demonstrated that 90 percent of the cells in our bodies are bacteria—we are in many respects more non-self than self. In Lousy Sex, Callahan considers this microbio-neuro perspective on human identity together with the soulful, social perception of self, drawing on both art and science to fully illuminate this relationship. In his stories about where we came from and who we are, Callahan uses autobiographical episodes to illustrate his scientific points. Through stories about the sex lives of wood lice, the biological advantages of eating dirt, the question of immortality, the relationship between syphilis and the musical genius of Beethoven, and more, this book creates another way, a chimeric way, of seeing ourselves. The general reader with an interest in science will find Lousy Sex fascinating.

Download or read book Secret Passages Nothing Ever Happens in Tuttlebury written by Johnna Anne Gurr and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-06-15 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Norfeld wanted life his own way. Tossing his blanket aside, he sat up. It was early morning and the house rocked with pounding footsteps and loud voices. It was moving day. Packed in the rusty station wagon, the Norfeld’s headed to the peaceful town of Tuttlebury. Shortly after unpacking, came the arrival of twin brothers making them a family of eight. Next on their doorstep was the second arrival; a spanking hew refrigerator sent by a friendly neighbor. The refrigerator was huge but the corrugated carton that held it was massive and possibly useful. Not certain how to repurpose it, the box was hauled off to the shed and set in a corner. But this box was no ordinary carton. For it would call to the four older Norfeld kids; Robert, Danielle, Paul and Natalie and carry them to unimaginable places. Places where they would explore the impossible and experience the awesome and wonderful. This book embraces the extraordinary within the most ordinary of days, hurling lives to an adventure beyond their wildest dreams.
Download or read book Sounds from the Beach Vendor s Coins Mixed with the Seagulls Huah Huah Huah written by Dian Cunningham Parrotta and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-01-06 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up as a child in a working-class family, Dian Cunningham always liked magic, flying on the Brooklyn’s sea breezes and the seagulls’ huah-ings to meet the adventures that each day living in Flatbush had to offer. Dian lived in Brooklyn from her birth in 1955 to 1982, the height of the baby boomers. She grew up in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn, within walking distance of Midwood High—which boasts alums such as Woody Allen, Wentworth Miller, Erich Segal, and Emmanuel Lewis—and not too far from Erasmus Hall High—where alums such as Neil Diamond, Barbara Streisand, and chess-whiz Bobby Fischer attended. How could the writer not feel that growing up in Brooklyn playing stickball, punch ball, and running wild in the streets, feet slapping down the cement slabs on hot sidewalks, where moms, grandmothers, elderly neighbors watched you grow up from their duplex windows and sometimes shared jubilant sunny Coney Island Beach days or painful life events, such as experiencing the wasp stings of learning about racism or being introduced to drug use on the streets, was everything she needed to meet her adulthood face on?
