Ticklers John E Christ

A chance to laugh is a way to enjoy the absurdities of life whenever they occur. It is the quick mind that is ever alert to those situations which are laughable. Come read the following stories: In Landshark see what happens after thieves break into a laboratory and inject experimental shark serum into the hapless researcher; in Smarter see how the gift of an alien changes the life of a dumb country person; in Fatter the quest for a way to easily lose weight produces paradoxical results; in The Stiff Arm War a third party combatant comes up with a unique way to stop hostilities; in Roids the possibilities of androids are explored; in Cave Canem where the name of the dog may be dangerous to ignore; in The Naked Truth, a hold up in a bar on a Friday night leads to revealing insights; and, lastly, Stick where two brothers invent a special rod out of a fairy tale; Aleph: The First Dog recounts the story of the first dog in the Garden of Eden; and, lastly, Doing It Raw is a first time visit to a nudist colony.
