Offbeat Ramblings of a Zany Comic

Beschreibung

2022 GOLD WINNER - HUMOR CATEGORY, IBPA BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AWARDS Uncorked & Off the Chain delivers chops and attitude with zany cutting-edge opinion, observational humor, and tales from the wild side. No topic is off-limits, from sports, gambling, and edgy tales, to marriage, dogs, and mass consumption of cocktails. Short and snappy free-standing essays for those readers looking for a quick belly laugh. "Benefits of yoga in order of importance: 1) flatulence prompting; 2) flexibility; 3) strength. Strike the downward dog pose and you'll be breaking wind like Gandhi. Namaste!" Jameson unveils plans for radically revamping the Olympics and pontificates on other pressing sports issues of the day. "It slays me when a golfer hits it close to the hole and the commentator says, 'Golly, he just hit a perfect shot.' Bull****. If the ball doesn't go in the hole, it isn't the perfect shot." He also rails against the establishment, has a keen eye for societal absurdities, and doles out sage man advice. "Why don't we have topless bars at airports?"

Autor

Jameson Gregg practiced law for twenty years in Georgia's Golden Isles and achieved the highest national ranking for lawyers before hanging up his wingtips to pursue his passion for writing humor. Offbeat college jobs influencing his worldview include Mississippi River tugboat deckhand, taxi driver, traveling circus promoter, and iceman in a chicken plant. Jameson is a multi-award-winning author. In 2015, he won Georgia Author of the Year for his first book, "Luck Be A Chicken: a comic novel." Northeast Writers Group named him Writer of the Year in 2016, and in 2018, his humorous short story took top prize in the Georgia Bar Journal's annual Fiction Writing Contest. Now comes "Uncorked & Off the Chain," the first in a series, serving up 175 slices of humor with chops and attitude. A Harvard study concluded that adults in America are in the midst of a "laughter drought." Jameson is doing his part to bust that drought! A Mississippi native and graduate of Ole Miss and Mississippi College School of Law, he now resides in the mountains of North Georgia with his wife, Maureen, and Boss Dog, Molly.
