Perry's IQ is only 76, but he's not stupid. His grandmother taught him everything he needs to know to survive: she taught him to write things down so he won't forget them. She taught him to play the lottery every week. And, most important, she taught him whom to trust. When Gram dies, Perry is left orphaned and bereft at the age of 31. Then his weekly Washington State Lottery ticket wins him 12 million dollars, and he finds he has more family than he knows what to do with.

Old Buck, leader of the local Seminole Tribe, decides it's time to take James, a teenager, back into the Big Cypress Swamp to teach the boy how to wrestle gators.

We have all seen the contest where a person is in a bank vault and has 360 seconds to grab as much money as possible. If it were you, would you stop grabbing money after you had "just enough" in your hands? Would you stop grabbing money when there were only 60 seconds left? Would you ever be too tired to keep grabbing more money? Obviously not. Why? Because the reward of what that money can do for you overrides any of the reasons to stop. A wrestling match is the same type of contest. You need to have the same kind of mindset.

Earl Hebner used hard work and determination to become the most recognizable officiating name in professional wrestling, if not "the greatest of all time." Starting in Virginia as ring crew, he gained the respect of Dusty Rhodes and Ric Flair, going on to referee NWA's biggest events. Then, in front of 33 million fans, Earl debuted on WWF's most-watched event ever as the evil twin ref who stole Hulk Hogan's title. As WWE senior official, he played an integral part in "The Montreal Screwjob", calling an unplanned controversial finish that screwed Bret Hart out of his championship for real. ...

One of the most dominant college wrestlers in history, Ben Askren became a folk hero during the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, before going on to become a multiple time MMA champion and one of the sport's biggest stars. Here, in Funky, this record-breaking wrestler and polarizing UFC fighter shares how he came to dominate opponents while blazing a trail through competitors in unprecedented ways. Not blessed with natural athleticism, he revolutionized folkstyle wrestling by innovating his own technique, which earned him the famous nickname, "Funky."

Standup wrestling without a gi! What a concept... This is to say that for various reasons standing grappling seems to be given short shrift in the martial arts world, either due to a lack of space, liability issues, or a general indifference regarding how one ends up on the ground, so long as one can work well from there. So it would seem that aside from those who are looking to be pro fighters, standup training will tend to be cursory, and perhaps with good reason. That said it is a fascinating and nuanced game, and fun to watch as we see it survive , albeit in a theatrical form, in the ...

From Nathan Rabin, the original head writer of the A.V Club, coiner of the phrase "Manic Pixie Dream Girl" and the author of Weird Al: The Book (with Al Yankovic), comes 7 Days in Ohio, the riveting concluding entry in the "Trilogy of Psychological Terror." The tragicomic, pop-culture-crazed trilogy began with 2009's The Big Rewind (which The New York Times hailed as "full of caustic wit") and continued with 2013's You Don't Know Me But You Don't Like Me, which was named by Rolling Stone and Slate as one of the best books of the year. The "If We Make It Through November expanded edition" ...

Some time in the 1920s Salmson Creak wrote this instructional manual which reads like a rambling love affair with the art of Jiu-Jitsu. I think that this is something many of us can relate to in this day and age, as we recall the recent golden age of Jiu-Jitsu in the various MMA formats, and the sense among all martial artists that this form of grappling was indeed the last word in fighting, a holy grail of hand-to-hand combat. But Creak is advising the reader to replace his other self defense preferences with jiu-jitsu for the very reasons we once heard offered for using more modern ...

There may be many audiobooks in the market on this topic, but most of them are written by experts who assume you already have some background knowledge about Judo and martial arts. This audiobook is different because it’s written specifically for beginners who have no experience at all.

Pro wrestling is performance art, and trying to occlude that fact for decades has in many ways prevented the evolution of the art form. Little has been written about the challenges modern pro wrestlers face and the ways in which they engage with audiences. 7 Keys to Becoming a Better Performer - A Book for Fellow Pro-Wrestlers offers a fresh, frank examination of the skill set every professional wrestler needs to hone, regardless of where they ply their trade.

The Monday Night Wars may have ended fifteen years ago, but that hasn’t stopped WWE from taking every opportunity since then to brainwash its fans into believing that WCW was a joke of a promotion that was run by a bunch of idiots who screwed up everything they touched. WWE’s side of the story gives such a wrong impression that it’s cultivated a generation of wrestling fans who honestly believe that WCW was never good, and only existed for as long as it did because of Ted Turner’s deep pockets. This book tells the side of the story WWE doesn’t want you to hear, and looks back on ...

Eugene Peterson was quite concerned about the language we use between Sundays. He strived for a continuity of language between the words we use in Bible studies and the words we use when we are out hiking, at work, or eating dinner with family. He illustrated this passion in his writings and weekly sermons. A Month of Sundays is a devotional collection featuring excerpts of Eugene's Sunday sermons arranged into thoughtful readings for every day of the month, drawn from the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

If you’re a fan of the standup grappling game and particularly the methods of the great Armand Cherpillod (declared European champion in free wrestling and Jiu-Jitsu a number of times between 1900 and 1926, as well as being a professor at the famed Bartitsu club) which was published under the title Hooks, Trips, Throws, & Takedowns, then this little work is sure to please. It is a translation of a Swiss manual from 1923 with the simple title of Das Ringen - which is to say Wrestling. Despite their idyllic landscapes, cushy resorts, and reserved demeanors, the Swiss are some seriously ...
