Twelve [Secure Microsoft Reader/Adobe Reader 7]
by Nick McDonell
|
|
White Mike is clean. He has never smoked a cigarette in his life. Never had a drink, never sucked down a doobie. But White Mike has become a very good drug dealer, even though it started out as a one-shot deal with his cousin Charlie. White Mike was a good student, but he's been out of school for six months, and though some people might wonder what he's doing, no one seams to care very much that he's taking a year off before college. Maybe more than a year. White Mike lives on the Upper East Sid... more info>>

Age and Guile Beat Youth, Innocence and a Bad Haircut: Twenty-Five Years of P.J. O'Rourke [Secure Microsoft Reader/Adobe Reader 7]
by P. J. O'Rourke
|
|
Readers may be shocked to discover that America's most provocative (and conservative) satirist, P. J. O'Rourke, was at one time a raving pinko, with scars on his formerly bleeding heart to prove it. In Age and Guile Beat Youth, Innocence, and a Bad Haircut, O'Rourke chronicles the remarkable trajectory that took him from the lighthearted fun of the revolutionary barricades to the serious business of the nineteenth hole. P. J. O'Rourke's message is that there's hope for all those suffering from a... more info>>

Republican Party Reptile: The Confessions, Adventures, Essays, and Other Outrages of P. J. O'Rourke [Secure Microsoft Reader/Adobe Reader 7]
by P. J. O'Rourke
|
|
The Republican Party Reptile is a creature of the eighties. It's neoconservatism with its pants down around its ankles. In the twenty-one pieces in this book, P.J. O'Rourke, reactionary and humorist, articulates this strange philosophy and shows us the progenitor of the species (namely himself) in action. O'Rourke visits the Lebanese civil war and the Marcos election campaign, sees Russia through the bottom of vodka bottle, examines sundry aspects of Western civilization such as the great bicycl... more info>>

All the Trouble in the World: The Lighter Side of Overpopulation, Famine, Ecological Disaster, Ethnic Hatred, Plague, and Poverty [Secure Microsoft Reader/Adobe Reader 7]
by P. J. O'Rourke
|
|
Best-selling political humorist P.J. O'Rourke tackles the "fashionable worries"--the enormous global problems that are endlessly in the news and constantly on our minds but about which we mostly don't have a clue, including overpopulation, famine, ecological disaster, ethnic hatred, plague, and poverty. He visits Bangladesh and Fremont, California. The two places have the same number of people per square mile, so how come George Harrison never held a concert to benefit suburban Californians?

The Bachelor Home Companion: A Practical Guide to Keeping House Like a Pig [Secure Microsoft Reader/Adobe Reader 7]
by P. J. O'Rourke
|
|
Mowing is tedious and can be avoided by wetting down the yard with a fine spray of #2 heating oil. Or during the winter months you can sprinkle rock salt on the whole thing. In the inimitable style that has made him one of America's most popular humorists, P.J. provides an essential guide to the practical business of living in the modern world and provides that "Camus had it all wrong about the myth of Sisyphus--it's not symbolic of life, just housekeeping."

by P. J. O'Rourke
|
|
In P.J. O'Rourke's classic best-seller, Parliament of Whores, he attempted to explain the entire United States government. Now, in his most ambitious book since, he takes on an even broader subject, but one that is dear to us all--wealth. What is it? How do you get it? Or, as P.J. says, "Why do some places prosper and thrive, while others just suck?" The obvious starting point is Wall Street. P.J. takes the reader on a scary, hilarious, and enlightening visit to the New York Stock Exchange, expl... more info>>
