Book Description

WEDDING DRESS FOR SALE Size 7, never worn. It's a masterpiece. He wasn't. Call Annie at 555-7255. After breaking her fourth engagement, Annie Jamison had a mountain of debts, a heal of white lace and a shoe box full of momentos. Why not sell the dress? She obviously wasn't destined to wear it anyway! But when the Bargain Shopper switched her phone number with an ad for a vintage truck, Annie had some choice words for the conceited oaf who called himself The Pick-Up Man. In the flesh, Mr. Pick-Up was gorgeous, sexy, with a body to die for. Unfortunately, he was also her first ex-fiancé—the only man she truly ever loved. Oh, and one small thing: He wanted to buy the dress—for another woman!

"Andersen's story is the Horatio Alger myth made real, but his life is about much more than money and politics. He believes in public service, in democracy, and in striving to meet the needs of all citizens, especially those in the worst circumstances. Andersen's strong faith and values resonate from the first page of this autobiography.

Book Description

Greg is a rancher in the western United States. Burdened by generational alcoholism, he struggles to achieve personal happiness and at the same time hold it together with his family and friends. It is not without casualties to some of the characters in the book. In Windmill, the men and women are searching for personal freedom. In America, freedom is guaranteed but the methods and means of how to achieve it inevitabley clash. People from different parts of the country have different ideas, and being compelled to search for freedom each has to suffer the setbacks that life has to offer. On the surface, life in the west seem more forgiving, more laid back. But in the end, no one in is guaranteed to find the easy road. Freedom is not easy for those living it. Like the windmill, constantly being driven by the impeller of the wind, life is the impeller that drives the characters in this book. Each has to reach deep within to withstand the adult circumstances they are responsible for putting themselves in. Through our own actions, sometimes life comes to a standstill. The impeller of life is a driving force. And like the windmill, if the wind stops or water below dries up, the living are bandoned to fend for themselves. If we are lucky, time will restart our dynamos. If the people in the story are to survive, the forces of nature must be discovered without as well as within. There are many versions of the living, yet in function they seem all alike. Living in the modern west forces choices between retaining what is thought of as good and yet, bending to what has become designated as progress. In the end, are we able to take charge and judge, or must we simply take what the wind and water has to offer and make the best of it? Only our characters know for sure.

Book Description

The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang offers the ultimate record of modern, post WW2 American Slang. The 25,000 entries are accompanied by citations that authenticate the words as well as offer examples of usage from popular literature, newspapers, magazines, movies, television shows, musical lyrics, and Internet user groups. Etymology, cultural context, country of origin and the date the word was first used are also provided. In terms of content, the cultural transformations since 1945 are astounding. Television, computers, drugs, music, unpopular wars, youth movements, changing racial sensitivities and attitudes towards sex and sexuality are all substantial factors that have shaped culture and language. This new edition includes over 500 new headwords collected with citations from the last five years, a period of immense change in the English language, as well as revised existing entries with new dating and citations. No term is excluded on the grounds that it might be considered offensive as a racial, ethnic, religious, sexual or any kind of slur. This dictionary contains many entries and citations that will, and should, offend. Rich, scholarly and informative, The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang and Unconventional English is an indispensable resource for language researchers, lexicographers and translators.
