Bicycle Bits & Pieces

Is it better to buy a crossover little used or brand new?

They told me to buy a little used crossover because it is cheaper and I will not lose its value as the purchase of a new brand.

Go with a little used … let someone else has hit on depreciation of new cars is when you take the lot.

Slightly Settled $3.95 Remember Tracey Spadolini from Wendy Markham’s hit "SLIGHTLY SINGLE? Well, she’s back and looking and feeling fabulous. Only, this time she isn’t slightly single, she is slightly settled–don’t worry, we soon discover that it suits her. But first, Tracey will ignore her top two "Don’ts" for the office party–and land herself a hot new boyfriend, who happens to live with her new boss. (Did we mention that Tracey is hoping to get a promotion? Hmm, this could get interesting.) And second, Tracey will find herself the object of desire of not one (her current boyfriend), not two (her ex-boyfriend), but three men (someone she "used to think was Mr. Right). When did life for Tracey get so complicated?

Slightly Shady $3.95 Amanda Quick’s trademark is a bestselling combination of suspense, passion, and sparkling wit in historical tales alight with intrigue. Now she serves up the most tantalizing novel of her career as an enterprising woman allies herself with a mysterious spy, only to be caught up in a torrid brew of treachery- and temptation…. SLIGHTLY SHADY From the moment the stranger burst into her antiquities shop in Rome, Lavinia Lake knew he was nothing but trouble. He said he was in pursuit of a killer. He swore he was only trying to save her. Yet Lavinia was convinced that Mr. Tobias March was bent instead on destroying her. When the self-described spy hustled her all the way back to England, Lavinia vowed she would find a way to repay him in full. She never dreamed that Mr. March had in fact been telling the truth, that he had been hired to track down a powerful villain. And just as his investigation was heating up, he found it complicated by the most ungovernable, exasperating- and slightly shady- woman he had ever met. Lavinia most certainly never dreamed they would meet again, forced into partnership under shocking circumstances- or that their fiery disputes would spark a sizzling desire as overwhelming as the danger they faced….

Slightly Psychic $3.95 Lila Delaney never claimed to be entirely psychic… just slightly psychic. But any ability she might have had disappeared the minute Lila’s visions led her and the police to a missing heiress… healthy, happy and "tied" to the bed of "Lila’s" fiance . Broadcast live on national television, the incident was enough to make Lila hightail it out of town. Lila’s journey brought her and her best friend Pepper to a small Virginia town. All too soon the woman who just wanted to be left alone was indulging in mint juleps and moonlit celebrations, becoming attracted to a too-secretive man and getting involved in an unsolved murder. If only her psychic abilities would return, Lila might just figure out what she was getting into next… .

Slightly Married $3.95 All Tracey wants is to get hitched without a hitch–but as the calendar marches toward her late-October wedding date, suddenly she and her fiance can’t agree on anything. From where to get married (New York City or Buffalo?) to how many attendants they’re going to have (she’s already asked eight; he was thinking of just a best man). Meanwhile, Tracey’s friends are caught up in their own dramas. There’s newlywed Raphael, who just had his gay wedding; newly pregnant Kate, who is trying to adjust to impending motherhood; and Buckley, who is acting inexplicably strange. When Buckley unexpectedly breaks off his own engagement, all but leaving his fiance at the altar, Tracey is stunned to learn that he might be in love with "her." With plenty of snafus to keep them distracted, is being Slightly Married the road to happily ever after, after all?

Slightly Suburban $3.95 It seemed exciting at first, but after two and a half years in New York, Tracey has to admit her life…well, sucks. Sure, she makes a decent living as a copywriter, but Blaire Barnett Advertising is a cutthroat world that basically swallows her life. If she does manage to get home before nine, she’s usually greeted by husband Jack’s best bud, an almost–permanent fixture in their tiny, unaffordable apartment. Add the circus freaks stomping around upstairs, and Tracey decides it’s time to move. After quitting her job, she and Jack take the plunge into the nearby suburbs of Westchester and quickly discover they’re in way over their heads. Their fixer-upper is unfixable, the stay-at-home yoga moms are a bore and Tracey yearns for her old friends–she even misses work So which life does she really want? Other than Jack’s wife, who is she? If Tracey merely has to find her own Slightly Suburban niche, it had better be just around the corner, because there’re no subways here

Slightly Foxed $15.89 They say you’ll know when you’re in love. What if you don’t? Alys, a single parent and certified romantic disaster area, is always falling for unattainable men-the latest one being the dead author of a "borrowed" book of poetry. When she reluctantly returns the book to its rightful owner, she meets Leo. He’s very much alive, very much attracted to her and, well, it’s love at first sight. Isn’t it? After all, she’s a single mum with a boring job in a bookshop and, as her daughter puts it, gravity’s not going to hold off forever. Leo’s got the financial stability she’s been craving and he looks like an aftershave advert. So it must be love. Mustn’t it? Then there’s Piers, whose spontaneity draws her like a magnet. But is it love she feels, or just his infectious love of life? Before she can choose, an unexpected source threatens to lay bare the lie she has been living for the last sixteen years.

Slightly Dangerous $3.95 All of London is abuzz over the imminent arrival of Wulfric Bedwyn, the reclusive, cold-as-ice Duke of Bewcastle, at the most glittering social event of the season. Some whisper of a tragic love affair. Others say he is so aloof and passionless that not even the greatest beauty could capture his attention. But on this dazzling afternoon, one woman did catch the duke’s eye–and she was the only female in the room who wasn’t even trying. Christine Derrick is intrigued by the handsome duke…all the more so when he invites her to become his mistress. What red-blooded woman wouldn’t enjoy a tumble in the bedsheets with a consummate lover–with no strings and no questions asked. An infuriating lady with very definite views on men, morals, and marriage, Christine confounds Wulfric at every turn. Yet even as the lone wolf of the Bedwyn clan vows to seduce her any way he can, something strange and wonderful is happening. Now for a man who thought he’d never lose his heart, nothing less than love will do. With her trademark wit, riveting storytelling, and sizzling sexual sparks, Mary Balogh once again brings together two polar opposites: an irresistible, high-and-mighty aristocrat and the impulsive, pleasure-loving woman who shows him what true passion is all about. A man and a woman so wrong for each other, it can result only in the perfect match. "From the Hardcover edition."

Growing up with four unruly brothers has made Freyja Bedwyn far bolder than most society ladies. From feisty manner to long, tumbling hair, Lady Freyja is pure fire, a woman who seeks both adventure and freedom. Adventure soon finds her on a visit to Bath, when a handsome stranger bursts into Freyja’s room and entreats her to hide him. His name is Joshua Moore, Marquess of Hallmere, a man with a hell-raising reputation of his own who is quickly intrigued by the independent beauty. So intrigued, in fact, that he makes her a surprising request: to pose as his fiancee and help thwart his family’s matchmaking schemes. For two people determined to be free, it’s the perfect plan…until passion blindsides them both. For as Joshua sets out to achieve his complete seduction of Freyja, a woman who has sworn off love is in danger of losing the one thing she never expected to give again: her heart…

The Lonely Guy and the Slightly Older Guy $3.95 With its hilariously honest look at the single male in America — from his apartment furnishings to his career struggles to his dating habits — Bruce Jay Friedman’s book The Lonely Guy’s Book of Life quickly became a hit when it first appeared in 1978, winning raves from critics and inspiring Steve Martin’s classic cult comedy The Lonely Guy. Twenty years later, Friedman returned to the subject with The Slightly Older Guy, finding his quarry no longer alone and not so young anymore, but just as funny. Dealing with such topics as divorce and grandchildren, and offering advice on exercise (walk, don’t run) and insomnia (read Solzhenitsyn), Friedman took the pulse of the aging American male — and found him still in need of some good satire.

That Is Priceless: Art’s Greatest Masterpieces… Made Slightly Funnier $13.16 Thirty-two million Americans consider themselves artists, and nearly 100 million consider themselves art lovers. They–along with anyone else who enjoys a good laugh–will appreciate the edgy blend of art, comedy, and pop culture inside comedian Steve Melcher’s popular blog-turned-book, "That Is Priceless: Art’s Greatest Masterpieces . . . Made Slightly Funnier." It all started when Melcher stumbled upon a postcard in a museum gift shop for Peter Paul Rubens’s The Finding of Erichthonius. Inspiration struck, and Melcher scrambled for a Post-it note and scribbled down what he thought was a more appropriate title: Worst Secret Santa Gift Ever. And with that, That Is Priceless was born. More than 150 images are gathered inside the book’s full-color pages–from Courbet’s The Desperate Man reimagined as Johnny Depp Realizing He Left the Oven On to Degas’s Portrait of the Artist James Tissot retitled as Portrait of the Artist in Mom Jeans. Part art history, part parody, and entirely laugh-out-loud funny, "That Is Priceless" gives musty old paintings a 21st-century pop culture face-lift, enlivening the artist’s canvas with playful comic irreverence.

Someone could get hurt.)" – from the column "Moms get dumber as teens age" "The idea of drinking a bovine pee cola gives a whole new meaning to those old Peter Frampton lyrics, ‘I’m in you, urine me.’ At least I think that’s how they went. Plus, it makes you give those Red Bull ingredients a second glance." -from the column "Try an ice cold Cow-ca Cola" "Guys, at this point have likely picked up on the more obvious (to guys) mystery in this whole incident: Where does a naked woman put $40,000 in jewelry…? (Pause while we all ponder this.) …and if this man was paying $100 per hour to have a naked woman in his house, why wasn’t he watching her? I imagine to some, this would seem wasteful." – from the column "Nude maid strips man of self respect" What readers are saying … "Kelly Kazek has a most delightful writing style and a wry sense of humor " – Jim G., Phoenix, Arizona "I’ve never written to a newspaper colunist before but I had to write to tell you how much I enjoyed your column.

How We Got Here: A Slightly Irreverent History of Technology and Markets $15.71 Best-selling author Andy Kessler ties up the loose ends from his provocative book, Running Money, with this history of breakthrough technology and the markets that funded them. Expanding on themes first raised in his tour de force, Running Money, Andy Kessler unpacks the entire history of Silicon Valley and Wall Street, from the Industrial Revolution to computers, communications, money, gold and stock markets. These stories cut (by an unscrupulous editor) from the original manuscript were intended as a primer on the ways in which new technologies develop from unprofitable curiosities to essential investments. Indeed, How We Got Here is the book Kessler wishes someone had handed him on his first day as a freshman engineering student at Cornell or on the day he started on Wall Street. This book connects the dots through history to how we got to where we are today.

Stylized: A Slightly Obsessive History of Strunk & White’s the Elements of Style $3.95 A LIVELY, WITTY, AND PASSIONATE CELEBRATION OF THE "LITTLE BOOK" THAT HAS DONE MORE TO SHAPE WRITING IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE THAN ANY OTHER GUIDE IN MODERN TIMES Since 1959, "The Elements of Style" has been required reading for aspiring writers, English majors, and anyone with a love of language. Strunk and White’s guidelines for good grammar and style have been discussed, debated, and occasionally even debunked…but they cannot be dismissed. A Strunk and White devotee since high school, writer and editor Mark Garvey has long appreciated "Elements" for its character, its attitude, and its bracing good sense. The book is not only a helpful guide to creating better prose, it is also a compelling reminder of the virtues of clarity, simplicity, and truth in writing — and an inspiring celebration of the individual voice. To tell the story of this timeless, beloved, sometimes controversial book, and the men behind it, Garvey digs deep into the Cornell University archives and the personal letters of E. B. White and his professor William Strunk Jr. "Stylized" is a lovingly crafted history that explores "Elements’" staying power and takes us from the hallowed halls of academia to the bustling offices of "The New Yorker" magazine to the dazzling days of old Hollywood — and into the hearts and minds of some of the most respected writers working today.

The Eye of Spirit: An Integral Vision for a World Gone Slightly Mad $20.71 In this groundbreaking book, Ken Wilber uses his widely acknowledged "spectrum of consciousness" model to completely rewrite our approach to such important fields as psychology, spirituality, anthropology, cultural studies, art and literary theory, ecology, feminism, and planetary transformation. What would each of those fields look like if we wholeheartedly accepted the existence of not just body and mind but also soul and spirit?

Slightly Foxed/Still Desirable: Ronald Searle’s Wicked World of Book Collecting $26.98 As any, even vaguely addicted book collector will have swiftly learned, most booksellers’ catalogues are written in a parallel language that can fool anyone but the ‘cognoscenti’ and which makes the mysteries of the Rosetta stone, or Linear B, look like something out of Enid Blython. Without a smattering of inside information, the baffled but hopelessly-bitten book buyer is drifting unarmed and unprepared into a minefield whose perilous complexities will usually only be made plain when an eagerly awaited parcel of dream volumes arrives and mangled contents are revealed in all their deceptive glory…. But all is not lost. Help is at hand After a lifetime of avidly scanning the frequently poisonously-tinted pages of innumerable book catalogues, Ronald Searle has become expert in the art of decoding those esoteric, poetic and usually approximate, descriptions of literary come-ons. Now, licking his wounds, he publishes his hard-earned findings in this fully illustrated pioneer guide, designed to foil the devious machinations of scheming and wicked booksellers for ever more. No longer will the innocent book collector need to puzzle over the finer meaning of ‘old half road’, ‘good working copy’, blind tooled’, or ‘tail-edged shaved’. The unvarnished truth is here exposed at last, both in the shocking explicit drawings and in the devastatingly frank glossary whose revelations will startle even the most battle-scarred of bibliophiles. The result is one of the funniest, most entertaining books to have emerged from the brilliantly perceptive pen of the master. No book collector, and certainly no bookseller, can afford to be without it – even the wicked ones.

All in My Head: An Epic Quest to Cure an Unrelenting, Totally Unreasonable, and Only Slightly Enlightening Headache $20.01 At the age of twenty-four, Paula Kamen’s life changed in an instant. While she was putting in her contacts, the left lens disturbed a constellation of nerves behind her eye. The pain was more piercing than that of any other headache she had ever experienced.

From surgery to a battery of Botox injections to a dousing of Lithuanian holy water, from a mountain of pharmaceutical products to aromatherapy and even a vibrating hat, "All in My Head" chronicles the sometimes frightening, usually absurd, and always ineffective remedies Kamen-like so many others-tried in order to relieve the pain. Beleaguered and frustrated by doctors who, frustrated themselves, periodically declared her pain psychosomatic, she came to understand the plight of the millions who suffer chronic pain in its many forms. Full of self-deprecating humor and razorsharp reporting, "All in My Head" is the remarkable story of patience, acceptance, and perseverance in the face of terrifying pain.

Apples to Oregon: Being the (Slightly) True Narrative of How a Brave Pioneer Father Brought Apples, Peaches, Pears, Plums, Grapes, $3.98 Apples, ho When Papa decides to pull up roots and move from Iowa to Oregon, he can’t bear to leave his precious apple trees behind. Or his peaches, plums, grapes, cherries, and pears. Oh, and he takes his family along too. But the trail is cruel — first there’s a river to cross that’s wider than Texas…and then there are hailstones as big as plums…and there’s even a drought, sure to crisp the cherries. Those poor pippins Luckily Delicious (the nonedible apple of Daddy’s eye) is strong — as young ‘uns raised on apples "are" — and won’t let anything stop her father’s darling saps from tasting the sweet Oregon soil. Here’s a hilarious tall tale — from the team that brought you "Fannie in the Kitchen" — that’s loosely based on the life of a real fruiting pioneer. Apple Facts More than 7,500 varieties of apples are grown throughout the world. About 2,500 varieties grow in the United States. The apple variety Delicious is the most widely grown in the United States. Apples are part of the rose family. The science of fruit growing is called pomology. Fresh apples float. That’s because 25 percent of their volume is air. Cut an apple in half, across the core, and you’ll see a star shape. It takes apple trees four to five years to produce their first fruit. It takes about thirty-six apples to make one gallon of apple cider.

The Ifs of History: How the World Might Have Changed If Things Had Gone Slightly Differently $13.93 Columbus and Lincoln, Waterloo and Bull Run-how history would have changed if just a few things had happened differently You can look at the major events of history in one of three ways. First, you can see them as a series of mechanical causes and effects, tumbling one after the other in dizzying chains leading back forever in time. Second, you can see them as the product of pure chance, in which random uncontrolled events shape the destinies of men and nations. Or, third, you can see a Divine hand at work, intervening in human affairs with an occasional tiny nudge of events in one direction or another. Any way you look at it, it is fascinating to think about what would have happened IF one of those chains had been broken, or random chance had fallen differently, or that Divine tap had not occurred. In a series of short, easily read articles, Joseph Chamberlin takes us on a tour of some of the major people and events in history, and the minute factors that caused events to turn out as they did. What would have happened, for example, if Columbus had not changed course at the last minute and had discovered South Carolina, instead of the Caribbean islands? What would have happened if the Spanish Armada had sailed when they were supposed to, or if George Washington had joined the Royal Navy instead of the Army when he was a young man, or if Lincoln’s father had moved to Mississippi instead of Illinois? If you love history, this is a book that you simply can not put down.

I Used to Be Persian: A Comedic Memoir $18.02 Featured on MTV’s "True Life: I Might Disappoint My Parents," comedian Justin Dane tested the patience of his conservative Persian-Jewish parents. In I Used to be Persian, "a, um, slightly exaggerated memoir" that his parents developed an anti-coalition towards, Dane offers contentious commentary on his family’s-well, to state it nicely-bizarre antics. Oh, and Dane also offers a "brilliant lampoon of traditional Persian society with a flare only reminiscent of satirist Jonathon Swift’s," according to the humble writer himself. (Yeah, Dane urged me present him as an "intellectual bea$t" in this blurb, but, alas, my passive-aggressive sacrasm leaks through). Readers should note that Dane’s portrayal of Persians isn’t an "accurate reflection of all Persians just as semi-schizophrenic, lesbian-lovin’ hypochondriacs in Black Swan aren’t manifestations of all ballerinas…duh. Or how a psychotic pageant mama’s desire to inject Botox into her baby isn’t an indication of all pageant mamas desires…hopefully." Perhaps the Persian population would appreciate Dane’s disclaimer. After all, his particular Persian family is pretty eccentric. "Deez eez ze real reason Michael Jackson died " screams Dane’s Persian mama, perceiving Advil pills as ecstasy tablets. Dane then portrays his parents’ melodramatic "Persian-styled interventions." And the laughs just continue. As if in a flea market in Tehran, Iran, Dane’s mother attempts to negotiate prices in Best Buy. Oh, did I mention she shoves food down Dane’s throat whenever his friends are around? (Embarrassing). Or that she nearly disowned him for marrying a girlfriend in Vegas? But beyond detailing the anecdotes within his "Persian cave," as well as the Beverly Hills Persian population, Dane exhibits an estrangement between traditional Persians and contemporary American society…I guess. (Hey, every good memoir needs some intelligent underlying theme, too). Dane also strikes an emotional chord within his readers. Yup, Dane elaborates on his parents’ "brain washing quest to bring his hairy ass into the Dark Doctor Dynasty" amidst his aspiration to become an entertainment extraordinaire (i.e., Breetney Spears vanabee" cerca bald-hobo-attacking-car era, according to Dane’s Persian parents). In fact, Dane’s mother calls his school to change his major to "Medical Relations, a nonexistent curriculum" in one chapter. Needless to say, through his wild wit and disobedient disposition, Dane shatters his Persian parents’ idea of perfection; he’s "the insane tribal divergent" of his Persian family. And readers are there laughin’ (and cringin’) during every hairy situation. Pun intended.

Slightly Scarlet (DVD) $17.95 Allan Dwan takes on hard-boiled master James M. Cain in a film starring Arlene Dahl as Dorothy Lyons, a red-headed nymphomaniac looking for trouble. Hoping to smear Frank Jansen (Kent Taylor), the reform candidate for mayor in his city, crime syndicate boss Sol Caspar (Ted de Corsia) sends his top lieutenant Ben Grace (John Payne) to look into the private life of Jansen's secretary, June Lyons (Rhonda Fleming). He finds not only that she's involved with her boss, but that her sister Dorothy, a kleptomaniac who gets around, has just been released from prison. When Caspar murders a newspaper publisher who had supported Jansen, Ben, who is angling for Caspar's slot, supplies evidence of Caspar's involvement in the crime to June, and convinces her to accept his help in electing Jansen, making her believe he's now on the side of law and order. Meanwhile, Caspar is forced to flee and Ben takes over his job. Ben and June soon become involved, but their romance goes sour when Arlene, always in search of new friends, makes a move on the racketeer. Dahl gives one of her most unusual performances in the tight little noir, which features superb photography by John Alton.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseSingle Side – Single LayerAnamorphic Widescreen – 16:9Audio: Dolby Digital Mono – EnglishAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary – 1.

The Slightly Irregular Fire Engine $39.56 Though primarily known for his odd and unusual short stories for adults, Donald Barthelme?s children?s book, originally published in 1971, has a similar tenor of surreal strangeness and humor. During a fine day in 1887, Mathilda discovers a Chinese house in her backyard instead of the fire engine she?d been craving. Inside, she encounters a knitting pirate, a cat-seller atop a camel covered in kittens, a tumbling elephant, and most importantly, a powerful djinn guide. Illustrated completely with B&W clip art set against boldly colored pages, this picture book is one of a kind.
