Trench Coat English Philosopher

"Everything you know about the Littleton killings
is wrong. But the truth may be scarier than the
myths" (Cullen 1999, p. 1). This is the title of
an article that claims that "what was reported
last spring about the motives and methods of
killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold was untrue"
(Cullen 1999, p. 1). The question that arises from
this claim, is how can that be so? How can the
"most notorious events from the shooting spree -
reported over and over in news reports, on TV chat
shows and now...

his own voice by ridiculing Mr. Birling through

Anti Semitism Gas Chambers

Throughout the movie, The Holocaust, the phrase, I
just do my job, was usually the only excuse most
people who committed crimes against the Jews could
come up with. For example, when Helena and Rudy
Weiss were staying in Kiev, the city was bombed.
During the bombing, one of the Nazi soldiers, who
happened to be Heinz Muller, a friend of Ingas
family, was hit by falling debris. Hesitant, Rudy
helped Muller escape from the collapsing building,
gave him some water, and asked him why he was

Eric Clapton Blues Singers

Some blues ologists claim (rather dubiously), that
the first blues song that was ever written down
was Dallas Blues, published in 1912 by Hart Wand,
a white violinist from Oklahoma City. (Tanner 40)
The blues form was first popularized about 1911 -
14 by the black composer W. C. Handy (1873 -
1958). However, the poetic and musical form of the
blues first crystallized around 1910 and gained
popularity through the publication of Handy's
Memphis Blues (1912) and St. Louis Blues (1914).
