Limericks from the Heart (and Lungs) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is just as much fun as books by DR.Suess and Shel Silverstien, while relentlessly driving home its point about smoking.
My son brought it to school and the teacher read the limericks to the children. They loved it! There is also a glossary for building young vocabularies.
I feel that this book should win a Newbury Medal!

This book contains a selection of 335 original limericks for children and readers of all ages. The verses share a common antismoking theme and are arranged in order of progressive ages. Also included are a glossary of terms (particularly important for the inquiring minds of our youngest readers), a names-and-places index and several cartoon-style illustrations.The author is former pro-wrestler Lanny Poffo. He's funny . . . he's heavy-hitting . . . he's on a mission. Here's a limerick telling you why:Tobacco is so problematic, Diseases are so automatic. I've seen my friends die And perhaps that is why I'm such a nonsmoking fanatic.Poffo has found a new "cause for combat" near and dear to his heart and lungs –– "kicking cigarette butt" through his antismoking limericks for children. Inspired by author and fellow children's poet Shel Silverstein, Poffo's limericks deliver fierce but fun messages to kids, fans and parents alike. Here's a limerick (both educational and humorous) about some of the physiological consequences of smoking:Did you know that the first time you smoke, In addition to making you choke,It burns your lung hairs?And there aren't any spares –– Healthy cilia make those germs croak.Poffo's pro-wrestling trademark was to throw poetry-laden frisbies out to the screaming crowds. Now he hopes to convince kids to avoid or stop smoking. His clever collection of 335 limericks provides ammo to ward off peer pressure by tying heros, idols and legends to the nonsmoking message. Below is a sample limerick taken from the youngest target age group. Poffo hopes some parents may read the limericks as a bedtime story to inspire and teach their youngsters. For school-age kids, there is a glossary at the back. The hope is that schools may use the book as a tool for learning and improving reading and vocabulary skills.Mother Hubbard lived sadly aloneExcept for her dog with that bone.She smoked on the roadAnd in her abode Which reeked like the cheapest cologne.Finally, here is a sample limerick from the target age group 19+ years (college and university students):Relativity theories must beThat energy equals MC,Then needs to be squared.Smokers cannot be spared ––They forfeit their mass energy.

A Savage Photographic Journey through the Smoke of Bong Load Girls. Asthe smoke begins to build and the sound of a bong ripples from across the room, through the haze, beautiful women ease into focus - smiling, inviting, ours.
The entire world of pornography is a dream, an unreal fantasy that too seldom matches the beauty and intensity of sex in real life. But there are some who treat sex on film as an art form to be enjoyed, not only onan obviouslyprimal level, but also on a visual and perhaps even an intellectual level. Like the blue smokeemanating from an exhaled toke, they rise to the top, float above us beautiful and dreamy.
Rob Rotten is one of the few people in the adult industry who can rightfully call himself an artist. This book not only offers a glimpse into perhaps his greatest work, Bong Load Girls, it also gives us a taste of the madness that happens behind the scenes: Rejections from offended producers/distributors, handwritten scripts, the note to self to never hire one of the actresses againand sketches of the dildo pipe made famous in the movie. It shows the project as both difficult and enjoyable and, most of all, a true passion by the man who put it together.
The porn industry's reputation as a dark and brutal corner of our society is not completely unearned, but it's people like Rotten who break through with magic moments that allowsus to enjoy and celebrate sex the wayit should be. Buy the book, buy the movie, smoke 'em if you got 'em. Even after the smoke has cleared and the girls have gone home, you'll remember that gentle buzz and know that everything is all right.
"The sexiest psychedelic rompthrough the stoner counterculture movement ever created, Bong Load Girlsis a trippy masterpiece. Put that in your pipe and smoke it!" – XBIZMagazineThis book has everything youcould ever want for someone who appreciates the female figure... And whoalso happens to smoke a lot of herb! – Skunk MagazineWe wouldn't recommend sex, drugsor insanity for everyone, but they've always worked for Rob Rotten! – AVNMagazine

Of Woodsmoke and Quiet Places Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I grew up hunting, fishing, and camping and I still do today. It is a rich heritage that I enjoy so much and have had the pleasure of passing on to my son. For anyone else that does so, or has ever done so, I highly recommend this book. Jerry Wilder will stir your emotions from one extreme to the other. You will laugh and you will cry. You will relive moments that you have known because Jerry speaks in words that are a common bond to all who love and appreciate the great outdoors. My wife gave me the book on the occasion of our anniversary. I have since made it a part of my devotions each morning, reading the designated page for that day. I plan to give the book to a dear friend this Christmas. Thank you Jerry for a wonderful contribution to my and others well being by allowing us to recognize that we are not alone in our emotions and feelings that you so wonderfully have penned in this book.

SMOKESCREEN: Canadian security intelligence after September 11, 2001 Review

Nothing has captured our imagination and fed our nightmares since Sept. 11, 2001, more than international terrorism. The news are filled with "terror," and our government, from the prime minister to security experts, have repeatedly told us that for Canada, it is no longer a question of "if," but "when." But is it really so? This book debunks the system of fear and secrecy that has been used by the Canadian security intelligence establishment, with CSIS in the lead, to increase its powers to dangerous new levels, and raises the alarm over what this could mean for Canadian democracy. Starting from the training of new intelligence officers and ending on the deadly plains of Afghanistan, it shows that external pressure and a willingness at CSIS and other Canadian agencies to play in the "big leagues" of security intelligence have forced us into a "war" with no end that never was ours to begin with. It is an urgent call for a change of course before it is too late, before the very fabric of our society is harmed.

Encyclopedia Of Smoking And Tobacco: Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was somewhat dismayed when I read the other reviews as well. I have to admit that I am a former smoker myself, but did not find this book as "biased" as some have indicated. I am a librarian by profession and find this an invaluable resource when I have people who are writing research papers. It is chock full of information and very well organized. Certainly, up-to-date topics and statistics are - because of the fact that this is a book and not because of the author - not present. What is found though, are easy to read articles, photographs and a plethora of information that give one an overview on the many aspects of the tobacco industry. I reccomend this book highly and wish the author would update the volume.
