Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You Will Have Fun. Or Else. Nowhere in the world is there a more bizarre theme park than Happy Fun Land. Nick "Nike" Farmington's twelve years of thrill-seeking and roller coaster riding has brought him to exotic locales like Perth, Australia, Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands, and Santa Claus, Indiana. He's marathoned a roller coaster for ten consecutive hours and conquered the world's tallest and fastest. Yet nothing has prepared him for the insanity of Happy Fun Land and it's mind blowing attractions. China's amusement park industry is booming and the newest themed entertainment mecca is about to come online. In order to ensure a successful launch, they're looking to build world-wide buzz through any and all means. Nike is roped into becoming the crash-test dummy of a humongous drop tower ride with no mechanical brakes, a wooden roller coaster that goes upside down, and a death simulator (yes, you read that right). What could possibly go wrong? Follow Nike on his hilarious misadventure through China during the Chinese New Year holiday to attend the grand opening of Happy Fun Land, the world's craziest theme park. Who Should Read Happy Fun Land? Anyone who wants to read a funny story. Those looking for thoughts from a Westerner on what it's like to travel to China and what to expect. Disney theme park fans or anyone interested in theme park design or themed entertainment. If you call yourself a roller coaster enthusiast you might pick up some of the inside jokes. "It's like Jurassic Park meets Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory meets...something completely new, original, and ridiculous."
Download or read book Amusement written by Jeremy Bursey and published by Jeremy Bursey. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What tough man would a nip-cat trap if a nip-cat kid-napped man? I know what you’re thinking: “What’s a nip-cat? Who’s the man?” The man is Sammy McGuinness, a professional businessman who prefers suits to shorts and ties to lies. I’m sure you know the type: He’s the guy who makes your boss sweat because his efficiency is more boss than your actual boss. He’s the man who makes you look like a time thief because you stopped by the watercooler for a minute. Yeah, you know Sammy. You’ve probably dealt with Sammy. Maybe you hate Sammy. But, perhaps, Sammy also hates Sammy because Sammy has a secret that he cannot shake, one that makes him very angry, very angry indeed. Can the happiest place in all the land make him happy again? Or will the nip-cat push him over the edge? Amusement is the story of lies and justice, of cats and men, and of class battles at their most absurd. In a world where one powerful theme park rules the people, and knock-off brand names demand their unquestionable trust, just remember, no matter who you are, or why you’re there, nothing at this park is ever free, and Happy Fun Land will always find a way to make you pay. “Welcome to Happy Fun Land!”
Download or read book An Inconvenient Book written by Glenn Beck and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-11-20 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glenn Beck, the New York Times bestselling author of The Great Reset, tackles some of our country’s biggest problems in this funny, outrageous, and entertaining book. Glenn Beck believes that the reason why some of our biggest problems never seem to get fixed is simple: the solutions just aren’t very convenient. And as the host of a nationally syndicated radio show and a prime-time television show on CNN Headline News, Glenn Beck doesn’t care much about convenience; he cares about common sense. Take the issue of poverty, for example. Over the last forty years, America’s poorest cities all had one simple thing in common, but politicians will never reveal what that is (or explain how easy it would be to change). Global warming is another issue that’s rife with lies and distortion. How many times have we heard that carbon dioxide is responsible for huge natural disasters that have killed millions of people? The truth is, it’s actually the other way around: as CO2 has increased, deaths from extreme weather have decreased. But that would never be shown in an Al Gore slide show. Combining honesty with a biting sense of humor, An Inconvenient Book contains hundreds of these "why have I never heard that before?" types of facts that will leave readers wondering how political correctness, special interests, and outright stupidity have gotten us so far away from the common sense solutions this country was built on.

I teach college art and film classes and work at a variety of tasks looking for satisfaction.

Book excerpt: Surrounded daily by people with enhanced abilities, I’m well aware I’m nothing special. Fortunately, we all have our strengths. Mine happen to be less thrilling than superhuman abilities. Data analysis and being a great match-maker—for anyone except myself—are where I shine. (Cue sad trombone noises.) All of which made it all the more confusing when my routine lab tests came back showing anomalies. Me? Enhanced? There had to be a mistake. And I’m not only one who thought so. I wanted to catch the attention of my delicious, sex-on-a-stick office mate, Andrew Hicks. But not like this... Now, tasked with partnering with Andrew to track down other undocumented Enhanced, I’m faced with two gut-wrenching decisions. Do I risk heartbreak by acting on the attraction brewing between Andrew and I? More importantly, am I doing what’s right by forcing other Enhanced out of hiding? Data Sets is approximately 54k words and is book one in a MM light sci fi/spec fic romance series, with a HFN/HEA ending.

The #1 New York Times bestseller that gives you the right answers when idiots leave you speechless!

Just go away! you think to yourself—but they only get more obnoxious. Your heart rate quickens. You start to sweat. But never fear, for Glenn Beck has stumbled upon the secret formula to winning arguments against people with big mouths and small minds: knowing the facts. And this book is full of them. The next time your Idiot Friends tell you how gun control prevents gun violence, you’ll tell them all about England’s handgun ban (see page 53). When they insist that we should copy the UK’s health-care system, you’ll recount the horrifying facts you read on page 244. And the next time you hear how produce prices will skyrocket without illegal workers, you’ll have the perfect rebuttal (from page 139). Armed with the ultimate weapon—the truth—you can now tolerate (and who knows, maybe even enjoy?) your encounters with idiots everywhere! *Idiots can’t be identified through voting records; look instead for people who hide behind stereotypes, embrace partisanship, and believe that bumper sticker slogans are a substitute for common sense.
