Here’s the set-up:
Baird College’s Mendenhall echoes with the footsteps of the last home-bound students heading off for Thanksgiving break, and Robin Stone swears she can feel the creepy, hundred-year-old residence hall breathe a sigh of relief for its long-awaited solitude. Or perhaps it’s only gathering itself for the coming weekend.
As a massive storm dumps rain on the isolated campus, four other lonely students reveal themselves: Patrick, a handsome jock; Lisa, a manipulative tease; Cain, a brooding musician; and finally Martin, a scholarly eccentric. Each has forsaken a long weekend at home for their own secret reasons.
The five unlikely companions establish a tentative rapport, but they soon become aware of a sixth presence disturbing the ominous silence that pervades the building. Are they the victims of a simple college prank taken way too far, or is the unusual energy evidence of something genuine—and intent on using the five students for its own terrifying ends? It’s only Thursday afternoon, and they have three long days and dark nights before the rest of the world returns to find out what’s become of them. But for now it’s just the darkness keeping company with five students nobody wants and no one will miss.

Here’s the set-up:
“Have you been following the Presidential campaign closely? You have? So which antidepressant are you taking?” With these words, the author begins a series of satires of the candidates and issues that make some voters hope the Mayan prediction comes true. Besides fake first-person testimonials from Messrs. Romney, Santorum, Gingrich and Obama, as well as parodies of Perry, Palin and Trump, there is an account of a debate where the candidates are attached to polygraphs, a visit to a libertarian theme park, a seminar for adulterous politicians, and fantasies of Abe Lincoln and Richard Nixon in the partisan hell that is 2012 politics. Cranky Cuss, author of the e-book “Europe On $500 a Day (And Other Reasons to Stay Home),” believes laughter is the best medicine and “Send in the Clown Car” requires no prescription. But please turn off the cable news first.
