May cause birth defects

There was a book I read in middle school about some kid on a trip to the desert with his dad who gets teleported to another planet or something. Bright flash of light, then he's alone in the middle of some jungle and has to learn to survive. He meets a tribe of people and starts living with them, then he gets captured by another group and eventually becomes their leader. He lives this whole life out there, gets married to some lady named Meg'haan or something, then gets teleported back at the end of the book. Reminded me a bit of the John Carter series.

I cannot for the life of me find this drat book again. I've been looking for years.

May cause birth defects

There was an old website I used to read when I was a teenager called Progressive Boink, where a group of people would post little articles or blog entries or whatever. In 2007, there was an author there who went by B that uploaded a four part fanfic/screenplay thing called Grand Theft Auto Midway.

I don't know what sort of dark force has possessed me, but a few weeks ago I had a sudden urge to go back and read this loving thing. The Wayback Machine has the page, but the actual piece itself is four separate .pdfs that aren't available anymore, and I'll be damned if I can find anything on Google about it.
