Download or read book Obviously Not Clairvoyant written by Frank Arricale and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-07-27 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The best-selling tabloid in the solar system, The Galactic Enquirer was a two-person operation comprised of the Editor-in-Chief and the Guy Who Actually Did All the Work (a position held at the time, as it almost always was, by a woman). The Enquirer had long been known as a provider of juicy, titillating, not-even-remotely-true stories. But in this particularly slow year, the biggest story the staff had managed to come up with so far was a piece about a man who had decided to try cantaloupe. "You know," the Chief said, "this hasn't been a very good year for us." "You don't have to tell me," the Guy said. "I'm the head of the Sales Division. We're going to have to come up with something better. More sensational." "More sensational than the cantaloupe story? I don't think that's possible! Like what?" What they come up with relates directly to events on Earth a thousand years later, when the paths of a host of memorable characters are curiously intertwined. Ostensibly a tale of two worlds (three if you consider New York separate from the rest of this one), Obviously Not Clairvoyant explores, with humor and sentiment, what it is to be human.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one mans slightly cynical view of the Philippines, a group of islands tucked between the South China Sea and the Pacific Ocean. These are his experiences as a middle-aged foreigner living on a tiny island where there are no cars and fewer than 3,000 people. He is the only Englishman in the village. His snapshots of daily life and incidents that perhaps anywhere else in the world would come under the headings of Are you sure? and Really? are designed to entertain, amuse, and perhaps even tempt you to visit the Philippines.
Download or read book Fond of a Double Entendre Obviously written by Cormac G. McDermott and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laughs abound on every page as author Cormac G. McDermott presents this collection of jokes and double entendres with wit and verve. He builds jokes around small nuggets of information, culminating in punch lines that shock, amaze, and tickle the funny bone. From sports to music, from food to the business world, no subject is off limits. You'll never look at the English language the same way again. A friend said to me, "I love Mars bars." I quipped, "Public houses on the Red Planet are Mars bars also, but if you and your mates were to consume a bar or two of chocolate, it probably wouldn't lead to you ending up getting involved in a sing-song with aliens!" It makes me laugh when I hear people describing something easy as being "like stealing candy from a baby." If you were to try take one of those hash lollipops they sell in Amsterdam away from Biffa Bacon's Rastafarian six-month-old, it might be a totally different proposition altogether!

Download or read book Why an Afterlife Obviously Exists written by Jens Amberts and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04-29 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Like a master attorney, Jens Amberts has marshaled an abundance of virtually irrefutable evidence in making the case for the thesis of his brilliant book, Why an Afterlife Obviously Exists. Basing his argument on four fundamental facts about near-death experiences (NDEs), Amberts has written a book that every serious student of NDEs, and especially skeptics, should be sure to read. On finishing it, I doubt any reader will not be convinced that death is not a dead end.' Kenneth Ring, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of Connecticut, author of Lessons from the Light Why an Afterlife Obviously Exists is a philosophical argument demonstrating why the existence of an afterlife is beyond astronomically likely and hence empirically certain. It explains how we have every rational reason to think that people who have near-death experiences are not only telling the truth, but the book also argues that near-death experiencers are thoroughly justified in knowing that they visited the actual afterlife.
