Tales of a Scorched Coffee Pot
Life in a locally owned, health-conscious grocery store chain...it might be organic, but it sure isn't natural! Any lowly peon who has ever worked retail or for that matter an office job will find much to laugh about and relate to in this highly comical epic, of a company whose chaos hits all too close to home. From blowhard bosses who insist "somebody" needs to do something whenever any problems arise, to the crybaby technophobes running riot all over the enterprise, to the widely held misperception that Good With Computers is an actual department, it's all right here, in this fresh, modern workplace tale so realistic you might swear that you have lived it. But of course, nothing this preposterous could happen for real, right?

Stop Rewind Fast Forward: 1992
Seattle vs. LA, grunge against hair rock. Guns N’ Roses and Soundgarden. 1992 was a huge year for music - but it didn't happen quite as you were told. "Stop Rewind Fast Forward" presents itself as but one history of popular music. In this case, the year 1992 is examined in detail, with a primary focus on the acts Guns N' Roses and Soundgarden, and how they relate to the overall climate of the era. As the timeline advances and their paths cross, leading to a Dayton, Ohio concert featuring both, their respective bodies of work are considered in detail, as the author puts his own unique spin on what these bands were attempting and whether or not they achieved it.
