- Frazzled
- by Peter Johansen
GAP analysis methods endeavor toward developing visionary solutions to complex problems by bifurcating or simplifying the problem into measurable steps. The combined thesis ‘Economic Perils of the Middle-Aged American Worker’ and ‘The Forgotten Graveyard Worker’ attempts toward accomplishing solutions toward a complex problem. For instance, the middle-aged worker being 40 to 75 encounters many hiring challenges created by mythical or psychic superstitions, which eventually develop into lifeline challenges. In addition, ‘The Forgotten Graveyard Worker’ encounters humanistic challenges combined with company disguises. Unfortunately, creating humanistic challenges such as cancer expand into pre-existing conditions and former company denials. Hence, the combined thesis attempts to create awareness to ongoing confrontational humanistic events.

- The Unmotivated Collection
- by David Stoddard
This ebook is a collection of 3 previously written ebooks from my past life where helping folks get off their tails and into doing something (that didn’t necessarily involve them getting off their tails) was of vital importance. (and yes, I understand the term previously written was unnecessary). The three ebooks are “In Search of Ourselves,” “The Time For Me Is Now” and “A Time For Us” They were years in the making. Ok, “In Search Of Ourselves” was done in a week, but still, years later it still makes sense.
“In Search Of Ourselves” is based on our usual thoughts that we know what we don’t want, but may not quite be able to announce to the world around us who we are or what we do want.
“A Time For Us” somewhat branched off from In Search Of in that it carried the idea of finding out what we wanted to a new level in somewhat workbook form.
“The Time For Me Is Now” is/was a collection of previous columns from 2001-2004ish. It didn’t really have an over-riding theme other than they were a collection of letters, which formed words, with the stretched into sentences and then paragraphs. I was as shocked as you that mose of them went on so well. But I guess something like that is bound to happen.
This collection is not nearly as hysterical as this overview has been. It was written with a different frame of mind and goals in mind. So that’s why it’s being offered out here once again in hopes of those who print it out can provide necessary materials for birds who are in cages have their own understood place to leave their droppings when required.

- the world's largest outhouse
- by John Flowers
A series of essays for your smartphone or smart tablet -- or perhaps not you, perhaps your smart friends -- that dissect grave matters, including: ... how an economic collapse and recovery is exactly like that last time you got black-out drunk; why the Gospels are essentially a parenting manual for raising an artsy kid; and what to do if you pass out drunk on the subway and wake up in Coney Island.
Oh, and a detailed description of a journey just outside Beijing to the book's eponymous outhouse.
Again, grave matters.
