There are people out there who are Professional Jump Rope Artists, and this very fact makes me think the world is a pretty nifty place. I just told my hubby I was off to the thrift store. He asked me to please avoid it being a $50 trip again. I said it was just a fluke. He replied, “Ya, fluking expensive!” I just can’t stop laughing.

Perfect Excuse (Mason Creek Book 11)

Genre: Romance | Humor & Entertainment | Family Life | Small Town & Rural
FREE for a limited time
Who knew fighting for custody of an African grey parrot would be the perfect excuse to stay married?
Ryder King was always the one for me. He stole my heart in second grade, and I never imagined after seven blissful years of marriage, I’d give it back.
We made one tiny mistake by spending the night together during our separation period and the judge read all about it in the local gossip column. Okay, maybe it was two or three mistakes… but who’s counting?
Instead of granting our divorce, the judge mandated us to marriage counseling. The only way to get out of our marriage without waiting another six months was if our counselor agreed we’re all wrong for each other.
That’s when the fun really started…
A probing therapist, a gossiper who knows all, and a few of my unmentionables on prominent display revealed all our secrets. Seems Ryder and I were both guilty of hiding vital truths from each other.
And what happened behind closed doors… well, let’s just say it’s the stuff headlines are made of.

THE SOULS OF BLACK FOLK
by W.E.B. Du Bois
Genre: Politics & Social Sciences
FREE for a limited time
“The Souls of Black Folk” is a cornerstone of African-American literary history. Published in 1903, this seminal book of essays incited many white supremacists who discredited it as “dangerous” and “imaginative.” Drawing upon his own personal experiences of racism, Du Bois argued that African Americans are forced to wear a “veil” of color line, that is, they are forced to live their race every single day of their lives. This is why a strong political Black leadership must emerge from within the community and continue the fight for their rights. A century later, African Americans are still fighting these personal and political battles against racism and Du Bois’ words have never run as true as they are now.
W. E. B. Du Bois (1868-1963) was an American sociologist, historian, civil rights activist, Pan-Africanist, author, and editor. He was the first African American to earn a doctorate and to become a professor of history, sociology and economics at Atlanta University. Du Bois was one of the co-founders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and a prominent the leader of the Niagara Movement, a group of African-American activists who wanted equal rights for blacks.
