  • REAL Ultimate Power: The Official Ninja Book

    Robert Hamburger

    Paperback (Citadel, July 1, 2004)
    Dear Stupid Idiots, A lot of you have been saying that I don’t know anything about REAL ninjas. But that’s a bunch of bull crap! You dummies don’t know anything. And maybe YOU should get a life. I bet a lot of you have never even seen a girl naked! You idiots believe that ninjas had some "code of honor." Yeah right! If by "code of honor," you mean "code to flip out and go nuts for absolutely no reason at all even if it means that people might think you are totally insane or sweet," then you are right. But if you mean a "code to be nice and speak nicely while sharing and not cutting off heads," then you’re the biggest idiot ever!!!!!! So if you have any brains, you will shut up and get a life. So go shut up, you stupid idiot. No thank you, Robert Hamburger

  • Don't Sh*t In My Hat and Tell it Fits Better

    Michael Benson

    Paperback (Citadel Trade, Oct. 1, 2008)
    If Archie Bunker had TiVo, he'd be the Kid from Brooklyn. -VH1 The perpetually pissed off and potty-mouthed Kid from Brooklyn, famous for classic video rants like "Starbucks" and "Bat Day", is back for more, spewing contempt for virtually everything in twenty-first-century American culture, unabashedly letting you know why "the world is comin' to a f*ckin' end". Now in his second book of unedited outraged observations, the Kid mouths off on all that America holds dear-or not: The Kid On Marriage: "I been married and I been in prison. There's no f*ckin' difference. Except sometimes the food is better in prison". The Kid On Men Versus Women: "I'd rather be a man than a woman any day. Guys in hockey masks don't attack you, all your orgasms are real, and if you retain water, it's in a canteen". The Kid On Gun Control: "The liberals are crying, '100,000 people were killed by handguns last year.' Would it make the liberals feel any better if them 100,000 people were pushed out of friggin' windows" The Kid On Men Wearing Sandals: "I don't even wanna look at my own feet, and I sure as hell don't wanna look at someone else's. What we need is Foot Police-you got ugly feet and wear sandals in public, it's a $250 fine". The Kid On Britney Spears: "She's like the chick you had the hots for in high school and see at the ten-year reunion. She's gained sixty pounds, smokes unfiltered Camels, she's divorced with two bratty kids, and works at a take-out joint". The Kid On This Book: "Buy it or don't buy it, what the hell do I care" And a buttload more about the good old days of growing up in Canarsie and the cast of screwballs, crazies, perverts, gangsters, retards, losers, and whack-jobs who made Brooklyn the garden spot of the world. Anyway, think about it, you mook. Mike Caracciolo, aka the Kid From Brooklyn, was born in Canarsie, a tough-as-nails blue-collar neighborhood. He's worked at number of professions, most notably as a

  • The Sinking Of The Eastland: America's Forgotten Tragedy

    Jay Bonansinga

    Paperback (Citadel, July 1, 2005)
    Chicago, Saturday, July 24, 1915: Over two thousand Western Electric employees and their families, dressed in their finest, arrive early at the riverfront to board the Eastland, a bold and breathtaking steamship. The boat is scheduled to ferry its passengers to the annual company picnic in Michigan City. Suddenly, as it sits in port, the Eastland begins to list. While thousands of people watch in horror, the ship rolls to its side and silently capsizes, killing a staggering 844 people... The Eastland tragedy was witnessed by nearly 10,000 bystanders and claimed more lives than the infamous Chicago Fire. Taking place in broad daylight on the city's bustling wharfside, it was a heartbreaking maritime disaster that sorrowfully echoed the sinking of the luxury liner Titanic just three years earlier. But the victims of this terrible mishap weren't among the world's most rich and famous. They were everyday people who worked hard for the right to enjoy a day's pleasure. They did not know that for many aboard, this day would be their last. And the only thing more shocking than the event that took their lives is the fact that it has been all but forgotten. Until now...
