  Menopausal Ladies! Frustrated that your man doesn't understand you as you go through this uncomfortable stage in your hormonal journey? Allow some "lightening-up" to bridge the divide and help you get your point across. So much better than stony silences that the gentleman just can't understand, may misinterpret as companionable silence, or at worst, not even notice. An essential guide for you to leave "lying around" for your significant other to find (if your tidiness OCD allows). It may obviate the need for much nagging, misunderstanding and shrewish behaviour. It may not. But then at least you have tried, and things are explained and justified. We hope. There must always be hope. Gentlemen! Not sure how to weave your way through the menopausal minefield? Let us inject some humour here and provide you with a safe (or safer) pathway. Please be assured that you are not alone, but indeed are one amongst many. Your sufferings are recognised and acknowledged. As is the unfairness of it all. Help is out there, starting with this book.

  The Hypotheses of Failure

  O. Henry

  In this delightfully tangled tale of wit, ego, and legal entanglements, O. Henry serves up a razor-sharp satire of matrimonial mischief and mistaken identity. 
  Meet Lawyer Gooch, a shrewd legal mind with a taste for theatrical metaphors and a knack for keeping his office “compartments” watertight—especially when handling the explosive dramas of divorce. But when three strangers arrive, each spinning a “hypothetical” tale involving the same runaway wife, a suave suitor, and a weary husband, Gooch finds himself navigating a shipwreck of schemes, secrets, and social pretensions. 
  Narrated with droll charm by Mike Polischuk, The Hypotheses of Failure is a classic O. Henry farce—full of ironic twists, comedic timing, and a final punchline worthy of a standing ovation.

     Bill and Marci Finkle are your average, idiotic suburbanites living their consumer-driven, vapid lives when they inherit a mysterious family heirloom from Bill's great Uncle Phinneus. The heirloom turns out to be a clock, which turns out to be a time machine...and everything the Finkles think they know about the world (which isn't much) is about to be turned upside down.  
     Even worse, with their complete and total ignorance in all things, the world isn't safe from the Finkles. So, when their neighbors, the Sanders, also inherit a time machine from their own distant relation, the discovery leads to a world of intrigue and danger. Are their neighbors actually just neighbors, or something worse? Is Uncle Phinneus really dead? Can you change the future? Should you change the past? In pursuit of answers, the Finkles bumble through millions of years and across the continents in this loopy, thrilling, action-adventure comedy! Join them and travel from a Karankawa Indian village in the 1600's to a 17th century pirate ship; to NASA, the beginnings of the Battle of the Americas in Mayan territory and to post-revolutionary Philadelphia. Visit a vacation home in the Pleistocene, a Dallas cloud farm in the polluted future and go back a million years ago to the original settlement of Atlantis as the Finkles discover just how big the Universe really is and search for answers, like the definition of rhubarb.

  Bill Nye: Bill Nye's Funniest...

  Bill Nye was a famous American humor columnist in the middle 1800's. He said "We can never be a nation of snobs so long as we are willing to poke fun at ourselves." And he did exactly that in hundreds of newspaper columns that were later collected into books. This is a selection of just 35 of the most humorous, wry and downright funny cogitations of his, written of course in the somewhat convoluted style common in the 19th century which just adds to their flavor in my opinion. The selection process was rigorous: only those that made me laugh, giggle or snort are included.
