Birth of a Salesman
Author: LR Penn
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1304048705
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 243
Book Description
The same spicy, irreverent humor that characterizes LR Penn's fiction is to be found in abundance in his first full length theatrical work. Davis Goodman, the play's hero, sold out the dreams and ideals of his youth when he moved to Long Island and became a real estate salesman, seduced by the comfort and security of a suburban bourgeois lifestyle. As he approaches his fortieth birthday, however, he is plagued by serious concerns about his career satisfaction, his wife's fidelity, his daughter's moral character, and his family's avid consumerism. Like Willy Loman in Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman, Davis is pining away for a lost golden era and is being destroyed by a rapidly changing world to which he has failed to adapt. Davis manages to avoid Willy's tragic end by embarking upon a wild spiritual odyssey during which an ex-con, a shrink, a call girl, and a teen mom help him to reconcile his Woodstock generation values with the realities of twenty-first century living.

(Just About) Everything You Should Know About A Handgun
Author: DC Vesser
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1643502921
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
(Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun stresses safety; you can never be too safe with your weapon. I have the heart of a teacher and sometimes I get to foot stomping - I can promise you, whether you have never touched a handgun before, or if you grew up with a handgun on your hip, you will learn something from this book. (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun tells first-time buyers how to choose a weapon, then it tells you to buy that weapon and then buy another one exactly like the one you just bought (don't worry, I explain why in the book). (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun explains necessary equipment for the range and a little of what to expect on the range (for your first time). In (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun we talk about murder, both justifiable and excusable. We also talk about deadly force, stand your ground, and duty to retreat. We even talk about flashlights! Bet you gun experts did not see that one coming! (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun explains how and when to clean your weapon and talks about storing weapons, cleaning equipment, and ammunition all together and separately. We discuss different kinds of ammo, what kind of ammo to carry, and what kind of ammo to shoot on the range. We even talk a little about loading (reloading) your own ammunition. (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun explains what Title 18 United States Code means to a shooter. We talk about revolver and semiautomatic handgun history, how to grip and draw your weapon, what different stances there are to shoot from, and we train to shoot with both hands. The state laws pertaining to carry either open or concealed for all fifty states and five territories of these United States are included in (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun. Additionally there are points of contact in each venue. We discuss operations of a revolver and a semiautomatic handgun. There is a pretty thorough review of holsters and ideas on how you might carry. (Just About) Everything You Should Know about a Handgun has a section I like to call Gun-a-Linguist (so I did). I was going to call it Gun Talk, but there are about 253 bazillion references to Gun Talk in Google, so I made up my own word, ergo, Gun-a-Linguist. And-of course-pictures, lots of pictures. My son told me, "Ya gotta have pictures, Dad!" To visit the author's website, please click HERE. To visit the author's Youtube channel link, please click HERE.
