Funny you should say that / by Dee, Gerry,1968-author.;
"In a hilarious collection of comedic essays, Canada's top comic shares the funniest stories from his life and career. For nearly two decades, Gerry Dee has made audiences laugh, first as a hard-working stand-up comedian and then as the star of his own CBC television program, Mr. D. The former varsity hockey player and gym teacher has drawn from a lifetime of material, from growing up in the suburbs of Toronto to getting cut from his hockey team to becoming a physical education teacher and living what he figured would be the high life: summers off, short hours, great pay. Dee found in teaching an avocation, experiences, and adversity he never expected and hung on for the ride. Then one day, after years of dreaming of a career change to comedy, he turned in his whistle for a microphone and became one of Canada's top comics. He fought his way to the top after years of being told he just wasn't funny enough and that he had no chance. In his new book of comedic essays, Dee writes about the funniest moments in his life, whether stories of his childhood, becoming a father, starring in his own TV show, on the road in dank clubs as a stand-up comedian, behind the scenes at Last Comic Standing and Mr. D, and everywhere in between. As Johnny Cash once sang, "I've been everywhere, man," and the same is true for Gerry Dee, who's just about seen it all. He shares his choicest anecdotes in this new book of comedic essays for his legion of fans."--

"Fresh off his career-changing standalone co-written with Icelandic PM, Reykjavík, #1 Icelandic bestseller Jónasson presents a riveting new thriller spinoff from The Darkness, soon to be a TV series. 1983 At a former sanatorium in the north of Iceland, now a hospital ward, an old nurse, Yrsa, is found murdered. Detective Hulda Hermannsdottir and her boss, Sverrir, are sent to investigate her death. There, they discover five suspects: the chief physician, two junior nurses, a young doctor, and the caretaker, who is arrested following false testimony from one of the nurses, but subsequently released. Less than a week after the murder, the chief physician, is also found dead, having apparently fallen from a balcony. Sverrir, rules his death as suicide and assumes that he was guilty of the murder as well. The case is closed. 2012 Almost thirty years later, Helgi Reykdal, a young police officer, has been studying criminology in the UK, but decides to return to Iceland when he is offered a job at the Reykjavik police department-the job which detective Hulda Hermannsdottir is about to retire from. He is also a collector of golden age detective stories, and is writing his thesis on the 1983 murders in the north. As Helgi delves deeper into the past, and starts his new job, he decides to try to meet with the original suspects. But soon he finds silence and suspicion at every turn, as he tries to finally solve the mystery from years before"--
