So, I used the men’s room. Don’t judge.)I got home later that night and realized that the foreign student we were expecting to rent a room in my parents’ house was allergic to our cat.So, the spare room went to someone else: Caleb - the British guy from the men’s room.And so it began...my love-hate story with Caleb Yates. Or was it hate-love in that order?The guy knew how to push every one of my buttons.Sometimes I’d email him to express my aggravation and disdain.He’d actually rewrite my own words and send them back to me.That was the type of infuriating person Caleb was.So frustrating.And...Sometimes incredibly funny and endearingly sweet.And hot.He eventually grew on me, and Caleb soon became one of my best friends that year.Too bad he was headed back to England soon, so nothing could happen between us - for so many reasons.I definitely couldn't fall in love with him, especially since all we had was just one year. ungekürzt.

    The Prescot family were miners. At one time, they were contracted to develop technology for a mineral-rich but uninhabitable system. Gradually, all the investors shied away. Then the Prescots broke through with the technology needed to exploit entire planets, and incidentally develop domed playgrounds for the perversely rich, including indoor ski slopes and cable cars over megavolcanos, casinos and rides. This created the economic problem of being the richest people in the universe, having more money than most governments and effectively unlimited resources. Money is a small blessing when enemies are quite willing to spend billions for the chance at trillions. Bryan Prescot and his daughter might as well have targets painted on their backs for the thugs, kidnappers, and assassins their competitors would throw at them. Bodyguards were necessary - Highly trained bodyguards who could be bought once and be utterly loyal no matter the circumstances. The altercation comes to a head inside the domes and mines of Govannon, with their enemy desperate to do anything to save their own lives, now that the gloves are off. Caron Prescot has only six bodyguards against an army, but she has two aces in the hole: The miners are on her side, and Elke, Ripple Creek's psychotic demolition expert, has a nuke. The problem with Elke having a nuke is that Elke will use it. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Molly Elston. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/021310/bk_adbl_021310_sample.mp3.

But because we all have one, Louie Anderson has written this honest, funny, and brilliant survival manual for anyone who's ever choked on the F Word.

Big-hearted, smart, and always brutally honest, The F Word is one man's guide to being good to your family by learning how to be good to yourself. Includes bonus comedy material! ungekürzt.
