Resultados para "Frank" en Comedia y humor

El arranque de la novela no dejará indiferente a ningún lector, porque es una reelaboración del famosísimo inicio de "La metamorfosis" de Kafka. Solo que aquí se invierten los términos y nos encontramos con una cucaracha que un buen día, al despertarse, descubre que se ha convertido en un enorme ser humano, concretamente en el primer ministro del Reino Unido, de nombre Jim Sams. Y resulta no ser la única cucaracha transformada en político que se mueve por las altas esferas.

Life rarely stands still when you find yourself surrounded by a bunch of loveable crackpots. Certainly, that was the case for Frank and Stan. With their hugely successful "Le Mans" TT now behind them, thoughts turned to their next adventure and, inevitably, also to the topic of their own mortality.

Bucket list item number one for Frank and his oldest friend, Stan, was the TT Races. They did it, and loved it so much, that now they’re heading back for item number two on the list - TT Races yet again! The fledgeling race team they’d cobbled together on their first outing - despite moments of definite glory - didn’t exactly thrive. But, despite this, they’ve once again secured the trusty services of Dave and Monty - the two most out of shape, yet passionate and dedicated, racers in the paddock - and they’re optimistically eyeing a top 10 finish.

This is not just the story of one boarding school or one student’s prep school experience. Frank is a legendary storyteller, so in this book we get the universal story of boys seeking manhood away from home and of men teachers, trying to strike the right balance between the tough and the...

Finding logical inconsistencies, factual errors, and doublespeak wherever he looks, Al Franken takes on and destroys the myth of liberal bias in the media, hoists the Bush White House on its own rhetorical petard, and punctures the mean-spirited sanctimony of such media darlings as Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly. Timely, provocative, unfailingly honest, and always uproarious, Lies is sure to raise hackles and spark hilarity inside the Beltway and from sea to shining sea.

Doug wasn’t sure whether he should trust Satan. The red flag was that he said he was Satan. But the deal was good: Listen to Satan’s story in exchange for some donuts. And Doug only half-fulfilled his part of the bargain. But maybe he should have listened better, because during his friend Bryce’s next scheme (theft with light to moderate treason - the usual), Doug and the rest of his friends - Lulu (the fun one) and Charlene (the not fun one) - end up with a powerful artifact, a small metal cube with world-ending power that Lulu decorated with bunnies.

The gang is back for another crazy adventure. The idea of the maverick racer, Dave Quirk, winning a TT was as probable as a seaside donkey winning the Grand National... But he'd been trying to do exactly that. An unlikely victory would also secure the TT Farm for Frank and Stan’s charity, but it was a crumbling, financial black hole and filled with asbestos. Dave and Monty quitting their jobs to work there wasn’t fantastic timing, either. The charity needed a truckload of cash, and fast.

Frank's had better days.... The doctor gave him the news he didn't want, and he's also discovered the worst kept secret in Liverpool: that his wife's fitness instructor is providing her services that extend beyond the gym. With time a dwindling commodity, Frank decides it's time to do something he wants to do. With a little encouragement from his oldest friend, Stan, the first destination for his 'bucket list' is the Isle of Man TT Races. They had been content to just spectate, but fate had other ideas.

Last week, high-powered coffee buyer Amy O'Hara was trekking through the Ethiopian cloud forest on the verge of a discovery that could save the coffee bean from extinction. This week, she's unexpectedly fired. Suddenly Amy's days are no longer filled with meetings and upscale tastings, but with put-together PTA moms, puke-ridden playdates, and dirty dishes.

There are two ways to be a hero. One is more violent than the other. And the universe needs a hero, because a mysterious entity known as the Fathom is terrorizing the known universe and seizing control. But they’ve made one mistake: They woke Rico, the universe's greatest killer, from a coma. And he’s decided he might be the good guy this time. But being a hero isn’t easy. Rico has to work with others (not his favorite), and the impossible odds means it’s going to take an insane scheme or two (more to his liking).

All over the city, they are watching: Black men paid to stand guard, invisible among the wealthy flâneurs and yet the only ones who truly see. From Les Grands Moulins to a Sephora on the Champs-Élysees, Ferdinand, Ossiri, and Kassoum find their way as undocumented workers amidst political infighting and the ever-changing landscape of immigration policy. Fast-paced and funny, poignant and sharply satirical, Standing Heavy is a searing deconstruction of colonial legacies and capitalist consumption and an unforgettable account of everything that passes under the security guards' all-seeing eyes.

Frank Richard Stockton ( 1834-1902), umorista americano, racconta con leggerezza e ironia una incredibile storia che inizia con un naufragio, e finisce con lo stringersi di legami di affetto e di amicizia. Il tutto in un clima leggero e surreale, che ha il potere di riconciliare con la vita e di apprezzare le piccole cose semplici. Cornice musicale di Kevin MacLeod.

A satirical series of reports from a young progressive student to the DNC, outlining ways to undermine the conservative movement and create a progressive nation. 

This pseudo-theological narrative chronicle details the spiritual journey of a man named Glen, who is called to become The Fryer, a prophet of viscosity and fried food. Included among the issues and events are The Fryer’s initial revelation, a growing understanding of the doctrine of Grease as the memory of heat, the establishment of the secret society known as The Order of the Greasy Spoon, and his performance of The Fifteen Sizzlings. Glen experiences conflict with the Dry Ones, an immersion in The Dark Night of the Stove, and a physical encounter with the ordinary yet divine figure Frank.

This is the story of a theological conflict concerning the concepts of “grace” versus “grease.” The “cult of Frank,” a religious movement advocating the salvific potential of viscosity, frying, and culinary lubrication is gaining many converts. The story opens with a sermon by Father Anselm Loosespring, a Frankite advocate, who promotes “holy grease” as essential for faith, spirituality, and combating Frank’s opponent, the Adversarial Tobacconist, Runciman.
