In the tradition of Leland Gregorya (TM)s STUPID collections, here are authentic tales of life behind the badge, featuring hilarious anecdotes as told by the cops who experienced thema everything from stupid crooks and bungled crimes to station-house banter and quick-witted comebacks. In the tradition of Leland Gregory's best-selling Stupid collections, retired NYPD officer Scott Baker and author Tom Philbin present A Lighter Shade of Blue. With authentic tales of life behind the badge, A Lighter Shade of Blue features hilarious anecdotes as told by the cops on the scene--everything from stupid crooks and bungled crimes to patrol etiquette, station house banter, and mangled English. From a gun-stealing chimpanzee to the good-natured hazing of a new recruit, A Lighter Shade of Blue mixes the hilarious with the downright unbelievable through more than 100 firsthand accounts from police officers across the United States and Canada. In addition, a handy glossary of funny cop lingo apprises readers of why they would much rather have a fat pill (buttered roll) as opposed to a finger wave (rectal exam). Consider A Lighter Shade of Blue as the ultimate ride-along--a sidesplitting collection rife with real stories from the cops who have seen and heard it all, including: * A rookie who is locked in the back of a cop car during his first patrol and driven, windows down, through an automatic car wash. * A gun-stealing chimpanzee. * A college professor attacked by a wild gang of teenage girls who promptly steal his watch.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. "Rosanna Bruno's speculative look at Emily Dickinson's social media feed is so hysterical you may find yourself with a case of the vapors."--Alison Bechdel America's favorite recluse just got a life! With her distinctively funky drawing style and insightful wit, artist Rosanna Bruno presents a cross-generational Dickinson for the 21st century. Emily Dickinson said: "Tell all the truth, but tell it slant." Artist Rosanna Bruno does just as the poet asked in a series of several dozen witty, hand-drawn cartoons inspired by what we know--and don't know--about Dickinson's life and work. The Slanted Life of Emily Dickinson explores--often hilariously, and always respectfully--the myth surrounding the reclusive poet using her own words to skew, or slant, a story that is already somewhat fuzzy in detail. Beginning with a line or two from Dickinson's poems or letters, Rosanna Bruno presents an image of a real or imagined event. For example, she imagines Dickinson's Facebook page ("Relationship Status: It's Complicated"), her OkCupid dating profile ("I am small, like the wren; and my hair is bold, like the chestnut burr."), her senior yearbook page ("Girl Most Likely to Talk to Birds"), and several other hilarious scenes and fictional artifacts. The result is a wickedly funny portrait of one of the most beloved (and mythologized) poets in the American canon.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. This hilarious book - presented in the elegant hardcover format of a classic poetry anthology - is actually filled with the lyrics of pop songs from the '70s and '80s. You won't find any poetry from Emily Dickinson or Robert Browning here - but you will find heartfelt verse from luminaries like Olivia Newton John, REO Speedwagon, Barry White, Foreigner, Madonna, and others. Here are Barbara Streisand and Barry Gibb, musing on the joys of a guilt-free relationship: "And we got nothing to be guilty of / Our love / will climb any mountain. / Near or far, / we are. / And we never let it end. / We are devotion." Here's Bon Jovi, pondering a cure for his insatiable passion: "I need a respirator / cause I'm running out of breath. / You're an all night generator / wrapped in stockings and a dress." And here's hair-metal band Extreme, describing - er - something we can't quite determine: "It's not that I want you not to say / but if you only knew how easy it would be / to show me how you feel / more than words / is all you have to do to make it real." Complete with a deluxe ribbon marker, classy paper stock, and an index of first-lines, I Can't Fight This Feeling is the perfect gift for fans of pop music.…
