  The pandemic has been with us for what seems like forever. And every day seems like Groundhog Day! You wake up. You eat. You Zoom with colleagues. You send emails. You binge watch television. You feed the dog. You ponder buying bitcoin or dogecoin for your four-legged best friend. And then the next day you do it all over again. This is not the life you or your dog expected. You both need more. 
   
   
   
  Your lab, pug, or poodle was happy when you stopped going to the office. But, frankly, after all these months of having you home, he is over it. What does your dog think? Probably just what laugh-out-loud canine humorist Bark Twain thinks: 
   
   
   
  ● Go the Bark to Work. You've been home for months and you're cramping my style. 
   
   
   
  ● Go the Bark to Work. I need to get with the poodle next door! 
   
   
   
  ● Go the Bark to Work. You need a shave—I'm afraid you have fleas! 
   
   
   
  With this funny opus, Bark Twain joins the pantheon of famous dogs who bring joy to our lives. Move over Snoopy, Clifford the Big Red Dog, Benji, Beethoven, and Lassie; Bark Twain is funnier, snarkier, and more street savvy than you'll ever be. And you just need to . . . Go the Bark to Work!

  On a honeymoon two is company and three is a crowd. 
  Five is ridiculous. 
  After their wedding--and the Ice Dame's high-handed exploitation of the event--Triana and O'Neill embark on their honeymoon, only to find they’ve been booked on a CelebVid cruise to Armstrong with Vanti, Elodie, and Leo. 
  When the jump to Armstrong throws Triana and O'Neill into an alternate reality, they must outsmart the multi-verse versions of their friends, a lunatic professor and his corporate sponsor, and a cargo hold full of egg-throwing rodents if they hope to return to their own lives. 
  How will they do it? With spectacular, Space Janitor style, of course. 
  Come along for a Space Janitor twist on a classic alternate reality story. While you will likely enjoy this one without reading the rest of the series first, you'll have more fun if you get to know the characters in books 1 though 3. And even better if you've read the original Space Janitor series.

  Laugh with political humorist Gerald Gardner, as he takes an entertaining and probing look at how six American Presidents over three decades— John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Ronald Reagan— deliberately and effectively employed humor to achieve their political goals. In a special live recording of his best-selling book, Gardner sounds remarkably like JFK, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Carter, and Reagan, as he demonstrates how our Chief Executives have made strategic use of humor to win people over, to avoid sensitive issues, to defuse tense situations, and to deflect criticism. From the elegant wit of Kennedy to the genial joking of Reagan, you'll hear an insider's insights about the increasingly influential role humor plays in the political arena.

  Jen Epstein was born a worrier. As a child she worried her uvula would break off and she would swallow it and choke to death. Then she worried high voltage wires would get her. Eventually she was diagnosed with learning disabilities and later, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Smart but challenged, Jen navigates two years in Israel as a high school student and squabbling with technical support for her TV. She survives a two-night stay in the hospital, with all its dangers of contamination, and the nursing staff traipsing into her room at all hours of the night wanting her bodily fluids. Whether pondering motherhood or refusing to drink ice water in Costa Rica, Jen, with her self-deprecating humor, exposes her inner demons with stories that are sometimes heartbreaking and always deeply personal, tapping into the minutiae of her life with distinctive style and themes of universal appeal.
