PROPOSAL FOR URGENT ASSISTANCE
Dear Sir: I must solicit your confidence in this transaction. I am a high placed official with the Department of Finance Affairs in Lagos, Nigeria. I and two other colleagues are in need of a silent foreign partner whose bank account we can use to transfer the sum of $18,000,000. This are monies left by a barrister who died tragically in a plane crash last year...

Sound familiar? Congratulations. You have been selected to become a mugu, an expression African con artists use to describe the targets of their e-mail scams. But they drew a bead on the wrong guy when they started spamming Steve H. Graham. Like many Internet users, Graham eventually got tired of receiving mugu mail and decided to fire back at his wannabe swindlers.

Armed with a scathing sense of humor, Graham quickly turned the tables on his tormenters--with side-splittingly hilarious results. Whether he's referring to his fictional lawyer Biff Wellington, complaining about the injury he received while milking a lactating sloth, or offering the Preparation H helpline as his phone number, Graham--using aliases such as Wile E. Coyote, Barney Rubble, and Herman Munster--offers proof that spamming the spammers is the best revenge.

Steve H. Graham is a retired attorney. Since childhood, he has been fighting for truth, justice, and free movie passes. For each copy sold of this book, he will donate 100 percent of the proceeds to himself. He is also the author of the cookbook Eat What You Want and Die Like a Man. He lives in Miami....

The Joy of Smoking
Authors: Skip Morrow.
Paperback, 58 pages
Publisher: The Ink Group
Publication Date: 2000-09-01


Reviews :

    The Joy of Smoking is a collection of humorous illustrations about smokers who will go to almost any lengths for a nicotine hit. The book succeeds in tickling the funny bones of smokers and non-smokers alike, as it broaches the subject of tobacco addiction.

Instead of villifying or humiliating smokers, these images hilariously portray the stupidity of the habit in such a way that tobacco addicts can't help but laugh at themselves as they consider, or shall we say reconsider, their behavior. But smokers are not the only targets here--watch out tobacco media advertizers!

The Joy of Smoking's non-verbal presentation appeals universally to people of all cultures and ages....

Bitch Unleashed Revised!: The Harsh Realities of Goin' Country
Authors: Nola Lee Kelsey.
Paperback, 200 pages
Publisher: Dogs Eye View Press
Publication Date: 2008-01-09


Reviews :

    A wicked, gut-wrenching, satire for despondent urban refugees, flabbergasted backyard farmers and devotees of evil mirth.

Over 1.6 million people moved to rural communities during the first five years of this decade. Several stayed. This delude of the diluted continues - reinforced by dozens of regional and national periodicals presenting sanitized `country chic' to millions of armchair rednecks.

Satirist Nola Lee Kelsey leaves no stone unburned as she recounts the 'joys' and harsh realities of her own attempt(s) at settling into the so called, Simple Life.

Includes:

The perks of global warming

Handy uses for honey-dipped Chihuahuas

Tips for removing bats from your showerhead

A pop quiz on the myth of the country gentleman

Guerrilla techniques for alienating your country neighbors

Readers don't need to live in the country to satisfy their craving for some fiendishly good humor.

Authors: Paul Davidson.
Paperback, 288 pages
Publisher: Grand Central Publishing
Publication Date: 2006-05-08


Reviews :

    Over 13,000,000 people are currently blogging with thousands being created each day. But what about the blogs you haven't seen, written by the iconic men and women you're dying to know the most intimate details about but who died before the internet was invented? This original take on the biggest literary development since the paperback offers 200 blogs inspired by the most famous minds in history, detailing their hysterical personal revelations, such as: John Lennon's thoughts after meeting Yoko Ono (and her obsession with the Beatles' publishing rights): Marilyn Monroe's annoyance at her new beau 'J', who breaks off their dates with excuses like having to avert a war in Costa Rica: Read Shakespeare on a treatment for a new play about two princes who misplace their horse and carriage and spend the entire play trying to find it or how a stray hot dog nearly derailed Ghandi's hunger strike: There's also the transcript of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's intensely competitive game of "Rocks, Paper, Scissors," to decide who would be the first man to set foot on the moon and much, much more. In this book Paul Davidson proves that matters, proving there's no such thing as "too much information."...
