Lee & Herring's Fist of Fun
Linked to the BBC2 television series of the same name, this book consists of zany ideas for things to do. They include a collage of visual atrocities made or cut from magazines, or found in a plastic bag in a wood; a logic pamphlet for those who've searched for the meaning behind our hymn heritage; mediocrity awards for showbiz, sport and broadcasting; and an A-U of things to do with food.
Eavesdroppings
Eavesdroppings recounts life in the small towns of Ontario before sin arrived on the Internet - a time when churches were never locked and parents, not wishing to be disturbed while they listened to the radio, shooed their children out to play in the dark, unguarded streets without fear. Here you'll find comedy, outrage, and tragedy but no disguise. Included are actual events and the names of all persons involved. The author tracks the quaint immorality of smalltown sin in the 1930s and its evolution from full-frontal bingo in the churches to the current degeneracy of nude women wrestling men in vats of Jell-O in licensed nightclubs, but he never moralizes. Indeed, he provides no uplifting messages at all - just gossip, which, as Oscar Wilde said, "is what history is all about and more fun."

Here is Stewa...
Tort Wars
As suspenseful as a good novel. Fast-paced as a legal thriller. Full of the twists and turns of a well-written work of fiction. The page-turner Tort Wars by Roger Messer is a true-life account of the trials and epic legal battles of one of Florida's most successful trial lawyers. But this is not a book just for lawyers, although any lawyer worth her or his salt will find it hard to put it down. Anyone interested in what it's really like to receive an unexpected phone call late at night after a long day in court and have to face a sudden legal emergency which requires you to drive across the state to provide urgently needed legal services to desperate clients who have nowhere else to turn should read this book. --J. Joaquin Fraxedas, author of a NY Times bestseller, The Lonely Crossing of Juan Cabera
