Do you like reading those hilarious tabloid ’news' stories about Aliens, Bigfoot, dumb crooks, super-powered household pets, and ’incredible but true' current event stories from tabloids? Do you also hate all the raunchy pictures, perverted stories, Hollywood gossip, and ads for implants, piercing and psychics? Me too.Instead of paying $3 to wade through all that garbage (that your kids will read also) to get 2 or 3 amusing stories an issue, why not get 40 funny, bite-size tales that can be consumed in a few minutes each? These are laughs you can share with family, friends, and co-workers. Pastor Pete, Sister Sally, and even your in-laws won’t be embarrassed.The 4 short stories require 10-30 minutes per read. ’A Real Life Superhero' is the inspirational account of a kind-hearted loser who always dreamed of being a superhero. Would people ever appreciate his life of good deeds?’Not Just a Cat' may be just a tad out there. The protagonist suffers a debilitating on-the-job back injury, which results in lying around the house, and taking pain pills complements of Workman’s Compensation. After a few months, he thinks his cat is talking to him. All’s well that ends well in this tale of temporary delusional hijacks.’Missy’s Bear' is a refreshing (compared to my other stories) bedtime story I made up for my own daughters when they were young. A precocious little girl befriends a talking bear.There you have it folks. 44 original stories to keep you chuckling through the day.
