In I’ve Been Out There, the Houston blues and R&B legend Grady Gaines speaks candidly about his sixty-year music career and life on the road supporting some of the biggest names in blues, soul, and R&B. This annotated autobiographical account details Gaines's professional triumphs and personal sacrifices. The book contains anecdotes about life on the road and in the studio during a period when the entertainment industry was vastly different, affording readers a glimpse into the creative makeup of a man whose distinctive sax playing powered some of the most popular songs of the era, helped define the genre, and mesmerized countless audiences.

Especially after she's matched with tall, tanned, sinfully gorgeous Declan. For Declan Sharpe, nothing matters more to him than honoring his grandfather's memory by taking care of the family ranch. Life on the ranch means that he keeps to himself, too shy and solitary to go out into the world. That is until his friend signs him up for a dating app that promises to find the perfect match. Online dating is the last thing Declan wants to sign up for, and his life alone suits him just fine. Mostly. He's sure signing up is the worst idea, but then he meets Amanda.

Book excerpt: Today's 50-year-old is the new 30-year-old. Do the math. It means...when we turned 16 we were really minus-4-years-old. This explains a lot.

Download or read book I ve Been through Hell Trying to Make It Up to Heaven written by Alida Jai Rogers and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 703 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How would you like to have your funeral at any place you wanted? Well, in this book, you will see what my uncle did. He was a major coach. What is a major coach? Well, that is where you coach literally everything: basketball, baseball, track, football, martial arts, swimming, golf, and dancing lessons. He tutored adults and children and worked a regular job. Lazy wasn't a word he knew. What better way than to go out the way you lived your life? I personally thought it was very cool. My uncle's funeral was on the track and football field where over three hundred people attended to celebrate and paid their respects. It made my father feel like he was putting on a gospel celebrity concert that he waited for all his life. Lord Jesus help us. If only Erica from Mary Mary would have just given my father a solo at their church. My beautiful great-aunt had us join a procession at the funeral as if it was a wedding. We sat in white chairs on the football field as if we were holding a presidential election. He was just that special. My uncle's only daughter's wedding colors were purple and white. And she wanted to honor him by the family wearing those colors since he would not be here to walk her down the aisle. My father felt like this was his time to shine. He didn't have to shine that much to make us go viral. We were embarrassed. We had just seen Kobe and his daughter buried the day before. I was grateful for the tribute they gave to all nine lives that were lost. Everyone was watching at the airport. We were delayed due to the fog. After watching the funeral, no one complained about the fog again. I flew all the way from St. Louis. I couldn't miss my uncle's funeral. Who would have thought the world would shut down five weeks later? I say God is trying to tell us all something. With me being six months pregnant, and bleeding for five of those six months, I believed it would be a double funeral. God said, "You both shall live," yet the devil was trying to take me out. I believe in my heart that this book will show you that no matter your skin color, we are the same. Even if your faith is paper thin, this book is for you. Religion shouldn't be anyone's cup of tea. Even in the COVID pandemic, Jesus has never left us nor forsaken us. His blood is why we breathe. Now that's love. That should be our cup of tea. Not religion.

This book honors their legacy and confirms that they have been foundational to the development and evolution of the state since its earliest days

Book excerpt: Modern humanity with some 5,000 years of recorded history has been experiencing growing pains, with no end in sight. It is high time for humanity to grow up and to transcend itself by embracing transhumanism. Transhumanism offers the most inclusive ideology for all ethnicities and races, the religious and the atheists, conservatives and liberals, the young and the old regardless of socioeconomic status, gender identity, or any other individual qualities.

Download or read book I VE NEVER BEEN TO HEAVEN written by Kurt Turner and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2023-10-05 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The USS Repose and Vietnam are now fifty-five years in the rearview mirror, but it seems to be a previous lifetime. Before reading this book, I invite the reader to, just for the time being, displace the movies you have seen relative to the war. No movie can display the true emotions of the experience and lifetime of reliving any war. Only those who have experienced it can tell the real experiences they endured. Movies are stories of individual battles and experiences that may be ‘based on a real story’. You may have emotional experiences as you watch those movies, however, other than a scene or two, those scenes quickly and quietly fade into the past.
