Look for my audiobook version, coming soon

By

For years I have searched for the perfect audio book project.
Shogun
some friends suggested.
War and Peace
I’ve considered. Or perhaps
Green Eggs and Ham
. But it wasn’t until I stumbled, quite by chance, across
The 2009-2014 Outlook for Wood Toilet Seats in Greater China
that I knew. I KNEW. Sure, the title and the first few hundred pages may seem off-putting. “What the f*** is this?” Brad demanded, just 20 pages in. “It’s like some kind of terrible grad school thesis.” But right around page 375, the
OFWTSIGC (2009-14)
becomes a white-knuckled, roller coaster of emotions—the sort we expect from world class thrillers. Indeed, just when you think the author has exhausted his dear readers, after what seems an unimaginably methodical survey of mainland China’s wood toilet seat projections, he reminds us, ever so artfully, about GREATER China. Taiwan. Macao. Hong Frigging Kong. Now, admittedly, the near $500 price may be a bit daunting, but on a per-word basis, it’s quite a bargain. And imagine its uses! Senate filibusters will never be the same.
OFWTSIGC (2009-14)
also makes a terrific Father’s Day gift for that dad who “thinks” he has everything. This will show him, huh.

WARNING—**NOT** a Microsoft product!!!!

I was thinking, “Sweet! Finally a version of Outlook that will run on my wooden Chinese toilet seats!!” Little did I know this has **NOTHING** to do with Outlook for Windows or any other Microsoft product. It is NOT a five-year wooden-toilet email/calendar software product, but is in fact some kind of WELL-DONE REPORT ON TOILET SEATS!! By coincidence still entirely useful to me in my line of business, but now I will have to find some other way to coordinate my interseat schedules and emails!! Buyer beware!!

. I am so happy the price seems reasonable. I’m thinking Amazing Anniversary Present!!!!!!

I looked at the cover, and I already knew from the start, this is, without a doubt, still a better story than
Twilight

Badonkadonk Land Cruiser/Tank

Check out the real thing:

Currently unavailable

The JL421 Badonkadonk is a completely unique, extremely rare land vehicle and battle tank. Designed with versatility in mind, the Donk can transport cargo or a crew of five, internally or on the roof, and can be piloted from within the armored shell or from an exposed standing position through the hatch, thanks to special one-way, steel-mesh-armor windows and a control stick that pivots up and down to allow piloting from the standing or seated positions. The interior is fully carpeted and cozy, with accent lighting and room for up to five people. A 400-watt premium sound system with PA is mounted to project sound both into the cabin and outward from behind the windows. The exterior is a steel shell with a rust patina and features head and tail lights, turn-signal lights, trim lighting, underbody lighting, fixed slats protecting the windows, and a unique, industrial-strength, rubberized flexible skirt that shields and protects the wheels to within an inch of the ground while still allowing for enough flex to give clearance over bumpy and uneven terrain. Master power, ignition, all lighting, and stereo features are controlled from a single switchboard to the left of the driver, again accessible from either the seated or standing positions. Standard drive is an air-cooled, 6hp Tecumseh gasoline (unleaded only) engine, with centrifugal clutch, giving the Donk a top speed of 40 mph. This vehicle is not licensed for use on public roads and is intended as a recreational vehicle only. Badonkadonks are produced on an order-by-order basis, with each one having its own unique
set of features. With your order are included unlimited consultations with the designer and manufacturer concerning all relevant options (a representative from NAO will contact you shortly after your order). Price does not include shipping and handling.

Finally, a tank you can trust

By
Thomas Dunham “Los Pepes”
, December 1, 2005

I’ll admit it. Shopping for a personal tank can be a bit daunting. Many times in the past I’ve purchased overpriced, so-called “battle tanks,” then driven them into battle only to be wrecked in ten minutes by the first blow off of some insurgent’s homemade mortar. But not this baby, no way. This tank R-O-C-K-S! Literally. The 400-watt sound system keeps me rockin like a crazy man as I’m dishing out justice commando style. Wow. I just can’t say enough. And the kids love it, too—imagine the look of terror in the eyes of the enemy as I’m dropping off my kid’s team to their soccer game. Shock and awe, my friends, SHOCK AND AWE! I had NAO install the optional GPS-guided white phosphorus missile system, and talk about *SWEET*! Burn, baby, burn!!! Oh, it also has plenty of room for groceries, and if you need to like move a loveseat or something, it’ll fit if you use a little bungee cord. The only real negative with this tank is that it shows up on radar a little more than I like (although there is a polyresin graphite stealth model available). Also, the included spare isn’t full size. Overall, a great tank.
