By organising terms this way, slang terms that share a common key word can be classified together for easy reference. For example, under the key word 'Chip,' the following terms are alphabetically listed: bargaining chip, blue chip, cash in one's chips, chip in, chip off the old block, chip on one's shoulder, in the chips, let the chips fall where they may, and when the chips are down. Slang terms with more than one key word are also cross-referenced, and sample sentences lend meaning to the slang terms by showing their applications in writing and in conversation.

Download or read book The Hollow Beast written by Christophe Bernard and published by Biblioasis. This book was released on 2024-04-02 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don Quixote meets Who Framed Roger Rabbit in this slapstick epic about destiny, family demons, and revenge. In 1911, in a hockey game in Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula, local tough guy Billy Joe Pictou fires the puck into Monti Bouge's mouth. When Monti collapses with his head across the goal line, Victor Bradley, erstwhile referee and local mailman, rules that the goal counts. Monti's ensuing revenge for this injustice sprawls over three generations, one hundred years and dozens of alcohol-soaked tall tales, from treachery in northern gold-mining camps to the appearance of a legendary beast by turns playful and ferocious. It's up to Monti's grandson, François, to make sense of the vendetta between Monti and Bradley that has shaped the destiny of their town and everyone who lives there. In a sumptuous, unpredictable language and slapstick comedy, Christophe Bernard reveals himself as a master of epic storytelling.

Download or read book Chasing the Breeze written by Cliff Kice and published by Beach Bum Books. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: J.C. Stringer is once again hurled into action, off his sailboat, and racing against time. Not that he wants to be, or is expected to be. It’s what he does. There had always been small talk between the drivers, those waiting to start work, and those waiting to go home. It came with the job. It was part of the experience, part of pickups, and part of the deliveries, the thoughts and the possibilities. The ‘what if’s,’ what would you do, how would you handle it, if one day you were out on your route and a package fell off a shelf, busted open, and was full of money, diamonds, drugs, or something that could instantly changed your life. Better yet, what if a package had been placed on your truck on purpose, without being scanned, and with no way of it ever being traced. What would you do? How would you handle it? Not that it mattered, not that the thought actually did anything more than pass time in the realm of everyday speculations. It was nothing more than small talk, between employees with nothing better to do. The thought was simply myth and legend, put together and analyzed, piece-by- piece by old worn out knee and hip replaced drivers, those who continued counting days until retirement. Nothing ever came from it, because it wasn’t going to happen. It couldn’t happen. Not until the day Stuckey Gruber decided to actually make it happen… Now he’s a wanted man, and J.C. Stringer is the only man capable of actually finding him. Enjoy this high stakes adventure as Jimmy Chase Stringer leaves the peace and quite of his sailboat, the Brenda Kay II, and, by following his instincts, winds up south of Miami, heading towards the southern tip of the Keys, before sailing to the Bimini Islands, on the heals of a man who is now simply known as Red, a man looking for a second chance, and a better way of life. Only problem, Stringer isn’t the only one looking for Stuckey Gruber. The men sending the package want it back. The men waiting on the package want it back. The men planning the heist expect it back. And, the delivery package company, EDS, and their security team, they want the whole mess to go away, along with the employee they once knew as Stuckey “The Breeze” Gruber.

Download or read book Johni s Journal One Person s Truth About God s Gay Children written by Patricia Johni Patton and published by First Edition Design Pub.. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a true story...in as much as one person's truth can be. I'm not a self-proclaimed activist or a professional writer. I'm just a person who struggles through life trying to make good decisions while attempting not to hurt anyone in the process. Prior to starting this journal I communicated with a Christian broadcasting host who promoted pervasive Christian fundamentalist theology forbidding homosexuality. I used excerpts from many of our original emails, which included short comprehensive essays about the Scripture passages that appear to discuss same-gender sexual behavior, and alternated chapters between the past and the present. Over the course of time our opinions were expressed in ever-increasing frankness and patterns of stubborn refusal to yield to the others point of view...giving testament to the battle that rages on in our communities regarding the issue of homosexuality. This journal is a chronological description of historical facts, painful moments and surprising revelations of my life as a gay Christian, including the admission that God spoke directly to me many years ago. I portray the events from a uniquely personal perspective by expressing my commitment to God, an awareness of my sexual identity and my ultimate decision to live as God created me. I describe the pain of spiritual violence, the ache for acceptance and the resulting anger towards the injustice of prejudice. I do not believe that God created opposition to homosexuality. Any more than I believe He caused the murder, persecution and oppression of other faiths, minority races or women for thousands of years. I believe the true cause originates from those who possess a strong desire to manipulate their surroundings so that their surroundings agree with their own understanding of God. And I believe that God will always be on the side of the oppressed...not the oppressor.
