Why is it a thing now to make everything out of pickles? Pickle ice cream, pickle hot dogs, pickle pie…YUCK!!! I just saw an advertisement for pickle chips. We do not need this in our lives, people. Stop doing this! It’s like people are trying to be mean to food. Set it up for failure kind of thing. Pickles can be awesome. Some of my friends make the BEST pickles and I gobble them up. If they came at me with pickle ice cream they made, I would have to tell them the truth. They sinned against nature and must be punished. The punishment? THEY HAVE TO EAT PICKLE ICE CREAM! Pickle ice cream as a dessert doesn’t make sense, but as a punishment it makes all the sense in the world.

Louisiana’s rich history weaves throughout the lives of the McKinzie brothers, Travis and Forrest. Their great grandpa McKinzie left his Louisiana sugar cane plantation to fight and die in the War Between the States.

After the mysterious drowning of their daddy and younger brother in the swamp, the two boys turn to their remaining father figures, Paw Paw and the Judge. Now, with the onset of economic depression, Travis and Forrest McKinzie struggle to maintain what’s left of their land and their culture as the industrialized world encroaches onto their agrarian roots.
Covering three generations of the McKinzie family, amidst conflict over civil rights, land usage and foreign wars that take the best of Southern blood, Travis and Forrest cling to their rich heritage as it is stripped from them.
The brothers are people of the land; people who love the land; people who understand the land. And in opposition to outside control and corruption, they are willing to give their lives to the protection of their families and the continuation of their Southern culture.

Lane is a bounty hunter for Erebus’ corrupt government, his life a constant battle against past demons. Framed for murder, Lane is offered one option to avoid the death penalty: rejoin the army and partake in a covert operation to the apocalyptic world of Hemera, Erebus’ sister planet.
A century after the nuclear conflict that ended mankind’s third age, Hemera has now sent a distress signal to its sister: the president has awoken, and he’s calling for aid. Early intelligence reports indicate the mission will be straightforward, that Hemera is a vacant shell with all forms of life and hostility extinguished.
They are wrong.
Bandits control the dead lands, but there are things much worse waiting for Lane and his squadron once they enter the city walls. Having lived with the nightmares of his shattered past, Lane must now face the mutated horrors of mankind’s future in the toughest battle of his life.

FREE for a limited time
Irwin is not only the local Librarian; he’s also a book snob and an all-around grouch. There’s nothing he values more than his privacy. As a loner, he’s happy to be surrounded by books instead of subjected to the incessant blatherings of dysfunctional people.
The one thing Irwin despises more than people is change. He’s content in his predictable, routine existence… until a young girl barrels her way into his dreary life and turns it upside down.
Harper is witty, smart, free-spirited — but most of all, stubborn. Baffled by her need to gain his friendship, Irwin does his best to brush her off, but Harper refuses to budge. In fact, it only makes her latch onto him even more. Friendship, after all, can be found in the most unusual places.

The Fighting Cheyennes
by George Bird Grinnell
(42 Reviews)
Genre: Politics & Social Sciences | Biographies & Memoirs | History
FREE for a limited time
“This book deals with the wars of the Cheyennes. A fighting and a fearless people.
When their struggles with the white men began, some of their older and wiser men strove earnestly to preserve peace, but their efforts failed. During these first wars between the whites and the Cheyennes, the United States Government was struggling for its very life. Its attention was concentrated on the war between the North and the South, and the movements of a few Indians on the thinly settled frontier attracted little notice. As more and more people pushed into the West, there was more and more fighting with Indians, until in 1878-9 it ceased — so far as the Cheyennes were concerned.
Since the Indians could not write, the history of their wars has been set down by their enemies, and the story has been told always from the hostile point of view. White writers have lauded white courage and claimed white successes. If it has been necessary to confess defeat, they have abused those who overcame them, as the defeated always abuse the victors.
Evidently there is another side to this history, and this other side is one which should be recorded; and, since the wars are now distant in time, the Indians’ own descriptions of these battles may be read without much prejudice. I have tried to present the accounts by whites and Indians, without comment.”
