For humor columnist Wolfgang Niesielski, one of his most exasperating moments involves an expensive hotel room, a faulty thermostat, and a patronizing front desk clerk—only to be rescued by two gentlemen who, after conferring with each other in hushed tones, change their pleasant demeanor into the serious miens of surgeons before a heart transplant operation.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn this compilation of his humor columns, Niesielski provides an amusing take on everyday experiences. See what it’s like to have an evil cyber presence monopolize your e-mail account, understand the overwhelming differences between first class and tourist class on an airplane, and find out why it’s important to choose the right gift for a loved one—even if it is a Salad Shooter or an electric nail-file buffing system. From learning how unforgiving Mother Nature truly is when he forgets how to water the lawn to the moment when he discovers he is a procrastinator in the worst way, Niesielski illustrates what fun life can be when one learns to laugh at himself.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe Alien in My E-Mail and Other Stories takes others on a delightful ride through one man’s wacky life—Salad Shooter and all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"iUniverse, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47173660737776,"sku":"9781475909913","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781475909913_p0.jpg?v=1763606561","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781475909913","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
