Journal Entry 1 by wingmaryzeewing from Taneytown, Maryland USA on Sunday, January 4, 2009
Found this book today at the Carroll County landfill swap shed. Thought someone might enjoy it.

From the cover -
William Tenn is equally at home with giant swindling snakes, interstellar real-estate agents, lost time travelers and male chauvinist warthogs - and they, and even stranger bookfellows, are among the delights of this sparkling collection.

Null-P
A unique politician dares to ask the questions: "Why the best?"

Brooklyn Project
It couldn't change the past, and it didn't - not so anyone could notice!

The Deserer
A monstrous alien and an alienated Earthman learn - fatally - the one one vital thing they have in common.

"Will you walk a little faster?"
Naturally enough, the new owners wanted the old tenants to vacate - but the property happened to be Earth.

The Masculinist Revolt
Out of the closet and into the poolroom!
