Birding Babylon : A Soldier's Journal from Iraq
|
|
|
Early in 2004, a National Guardsman from Connecticut arrived in Iraq for a year's posting. Sergeant First Class Jon Trouern-Trend had been a birder since age 12. So naturally he looked for birds--and found them in surprising number and variety around Anaconda Base in the Sunni Triangle, where he was stationed: old-world warblers near the laundry pond, kestrels at the dump, wood pigeons by the airstrip, owls on the cement bunkers. And whenever he got "outside the wire"--collecting water samples from the Tigris, delivering supplies to schoolchildren, at a forward operating base in Mosul, or on a trek to the ruins of ancient Babylon--his lifelist grew longer.

Abandoned
|
|
|
For the past five months I have been living alone in a car at the edge of the woods — jobless and homeless and totally unable to find a way out of it. I can't sing, I can't dance, I can't scream loudly enough, alI I can do is write. So here I am laying down tracks...hopefully the start of an online paper trail out of here.

Tourist In Hell
|
|
|
In 2003, I set out to discover the post-911 world. I posted my discoveries on my Blog. Looking back, I can't imagine three more amazing years, filled with events and experiences that almost defy imagination. Are we on the brink of a great ascension, or a world war that will lead to a new Dark Age? This Blook is my personal record for future survivors -- and anybody interested in making sense of this precarious moment in history.

Confessions of a Boyfriend Stealer
|
|
|
Grade 7 Up–In this story written as a blog, fictitious readers comment on the trials and tribulations of the book's protagonist, Genesis Bell. She and her two best friends are known as the Terribles. Her friends are shallow, promiscuous, and nasty. Gen's narcissistic mother and sister are over-the-top–as shallow and promiscuous as the Terribles, and perhaps more unbelievable, as they both fall for the same man, who is–a Bible thumper. As the story unfolds, Gen's friends' boyfriends come on to her. She is at first happy for the male attention, and then guilty about betraying her friends–even though they are busy betraying their boyfriends.

GUS Openshaw's Whale Killing Journal
|
|
|
blogger-slash-whaler goes hunting for his prey in the Caribbean-where the waters are shark-infested, the crew is always on the verge of mutiny and absurd plot twists arrive with every other paragraph. Thomson's raucous comedy of errors is the tale of Gus Openshaw, a worker at a cat-food cannery who spends his summer hot on the trail of the "blubbery bastard" who swallowed his wife, child and right arm. Openshaw obsessively details his pursuit on his blog, and he's a little surprised to learn that his readership knows of other obsessive, one-limbed whalers.

Katrina and the Lost City of New Orleans
|
|
|
New Orleans is the Lost City of America.
New Orleans has disappeared as surely as the lost city of Atlantis or the lost city of Pompeii, which former mayor Marc Morial and Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA.) have compared us to in their statements.
That New Orleans, the New Orleans I mean to tell you about, that will never, ever, exist again--that city of love, lust, death and sex--will never exist again.
A portion of the proceeds of this book will go to the New Orleans Hospitality Workers Fund. The cooks, servers and restaurant workers of New Orleans have provided fabulous times and memories for millions. Now we must remember them in their time of need.

God's Blogs : Life from God's Perspective
|
|
|
How would you feel if you thought God wrote a personal note to you...on His website...and it was about some of the stuff that makes you wonder if He really exists at all? This book does make you feel...while it makes you think. Maybe God isn't who we thought He was. Maybe His thoughts aren't what we have been taught. God's Blogs contains some insightful, fresh thoughts that help us see more of God's character, His love, and His grace as He reflects on marriage, death, laughter, dads, and questions like "Why are we here?" and, "What about tsunamis and poverty?" A fascinating read that will make you laugh and cry and search your own thoughts about who He is.

Totally Boned: A Joe and Monkey Collection
|
|
|
Why has Zach remained unscathed while so many other cartoonists are smacked about by critics and connoisseurs alike? Maybe because while some strips are content with simple gags, Zach realizes that real laughs and empathy come from character-based humor. Maybe because while some strips stretch their premises so thin you can practically hear them snap mid-panel, Zach offers readers a richly detailed world with believable individuals, original premises and a larcenous robot. Maybe because while some strips can only make us long for comics' better days, Zach reminds us of just how freaking cool it would be to have a monkey. In short, Zach gives the comic strip reader exactly what he or she has been looking for, but in an imaginative manner they never expected to see. No wonder "Joe and Monkey" is so often mentioned and praised on websites, even those not strictly about comics
