Still making me chuckle
I read this story several years ago, and it still makes me laugh when I think about it today. Any book that has such long-lasting ability to make somebody smile is well worth checking out. The last scene, when the rancher brings his wife a box of Crackerjack from the town and then what she finds inside is a perfect ending to a delightful story.

"Who Are You?"
"Who are you?" "Batteries included." I hope you have time to read this book because you will never put it down. The Meanwhile Adventures is a funny , but exciting story. This book takes you to a silly family that does some amusing things. The message is that a funny family like this can be a little bit of trouble sometimes. I think this book is one of the ...

Graphic SF Reader
More Wildstorm style adventures for Mr. Majestic. He has returned and has discovered something very nasty and dangerous. So, teaming up with Zealot and some others he sets out to stop various alien plots from destroying the human race, and other not so minor problems of that ilk. Lots of hardcore violence.

Not Drawn By Warren
Although Amazon lists this album as created by Adam Warren, only the text is by Warren, while the pictures are drawn by a host of rather mediocre artists. Most of the time, I found myself thinking how hilarious this could have been if drawn by Warren himself, but now most gags fall to the ground with a thud. With many different artists, the graphical style is changing too much, and none of ...

A must read if you "went back to the land"
Like many thousands of others, I was inspired by the books of Helen and Scott Nearing and left the corporate world in the mid '70's for the "simplicity" of "The good life" they espoused. The adventure, was much more difficult and complex than indicated by the Nearings. It was "good", but it definitely wasn't easy or "simple". I had never worked harder in my life! Eventually, I gave up trying to ...

Kinky's Ranch-Flavored Manhatten Mystery
God bless Kinky Friedman, member of the country-freak outfit the Jewboys and author of 15 novels. There've been stalls in the series, poorly executed plotlines, and inexcusable scatalogical humor. Yet, Friedman's detective series based not-so-loosely on himself and his friends, is as fresh as ever with Meanwhile, Back At The Ranch. I enjoyed Friedman's other Texas adventures, although I'm not ...

The Gold Series
Well, getting these items originally started out for me to complete my collection... little did I know that they contained some episodes that I hadn't heard.... they are all good, and I welcome you to get each and every one of them and listen and then share with a friend/family member.

This book was GREAT!
I really liked this book! It is about a kid who writes meanwhile on the wall and when his mother calls him, he thinks to himself It's not fair. When ever he writes "MEANWHILE", he ends up in a toattly diffrent place, from a pirate ship to the wild west. But when the kid (Raymond) comes back to the pirate ship, he doesn't have time to write "MEANWHILE" And meats his doom.

A must read for any student, reader or fan of the comics medium.
I've been waiting for R.C. Harvey to publish his biography of Milt Caniff ever since he casually mentioned it in the pages of his fine book, "The Art of the Funnies", over ten years ago. The resulting book is not only one of the finest comics oriented biographies but it's a great book in and of itself. I have to admit that after it arrived I was a little intimidated by it. It is after all a ...

Speaks to the reader in an ancient language of contemporary matters.
This is a wonderful, award winning translation of poetry written in the oldest European language, Euskara or Bath, yet largely unknown to the reading public. These Basque poems are written in both the original and in the English translation and are a telling insight into a culture not readily understood by most people. If the reader is looking for a refreshing, heart felt volume of lyrics that ...

I've always loved this one!
This book is one of my all-time favorites. It's extremely funny; the characters are interesting and well-written, and the plot moves very fast! You can never tell where it's going to go next. This is the story of a teenage girl and her family (parents and two brothers), who buy a small island in the St. Lawrence seaway when they suddenly come into an unexpected inheritance. The catch is, ...

A biography of "'the woman behind the man behind the man behind the gun' in the shadow of Trinity - site of the world's first atomic explosion." Sometimes funny, sometimes spine-chilling.
