Picking Daisies (Nappy Version)


Book Description

Bobby Gerry was a child of privilege. His family had money that started with railroads and horses back in the late 19th century and was grown by subsequent generations until the family fortune was now so large that it became meaningless, especially to Bobby. He was never denied anything in his life and combining that with some liberal ideas of parenting by his mother, which included letting the child find their own path to maturity, Bobby was spoiled to the point of obscenity. As such, his social skills were atrocious. But then he met his match. And her name was Mistress Lillith. Lilith negotiated to get total control over Bobby's life and then the changes all began and a sissy baby began to appear. From the great writing of Christine Kringle

Daisy Parker isn't the woman that rock star Robby Grant would have imagined himself falling for. She's soft-spoken, sweet, and lives by a strange code the struggling musician is recognizing as Biblical. And he's helpless against it. Even if Daisy is hard-pressed to believe that a man like Robby would see her-a woman long forgotten by the rest of the world-as anything more than a step back to his career. But Robby challenges Daisy in ways she'd long avoided. With their mutual love of music, it seems nothing can separate them-not Daisy's wheelchair or Robby's ego. As Robby grows into the man he's long dreamed of being, Daisy dares to trust again. But will this sweet melody last?

No Way To Pick A President


Book Description

A premier political reporter considers our presidential politics and how to improve them-an essential book as campaign 2000 gets under way. Jules Witcover, who has covered every presidential election since 1952, here combines unparalleled anecdotal knowledge about Presidential politics with scintillating wisdom about just what's wrong with those politics. He shows us, in memorable and dramatic detail, how over the years an influx of professional mercenaries-with no party loyalties and virtually no political principles-has corrupted American public life and formed a new technocracy that dominates every phase of electoral politics. Along with this, television has changed politics dramatically, even destructively, which only discourages voter participation and puts off some of our most promising candidates. In this lively, story-filled book, Witcover examines the many ways in which politicians have condoned or encouraged these developments, and how they have responded to the new demands of a media-driven, money-conscious age. He assesses the effect of campaign funds both "soft" and "hard," and of a press corps that practices invasive, "gotcha" journalism in its own quest for greater celebrity and financial reward. He concludes with sage and experienced recommendations on how to improve our Presidential politics-beginning even this year!-and revive public interest and confidence in American democracy.
