I was incredibly shocked just the other day. With
all these diseases flashing themselves in our
faces, you would think one ought to be more than
just being careful. What saddens me is how people
do not take into account the proverb, Prevention
is better than cure. The other day when I was in
the bank, two guys came up and stood behind me. I
know it was none of my business but I could not
help but listen to them conversant. To tell you
the truth, I was really balled over. TK, the one

Mice And Men Men On The Ranch
741 words
Loneliness The most terrible poverty is
loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved
(Mother Teresa). Loneliness is an easily
perceivable concept in John Steinbeck's Of Mice
and Men. It can be well understood by observing
the feelings and behaviors of the characters
George, Crooks, and Curly's Wife. Primarily,
constant affiliation with other people would not
result in loneliness. However, in Steinbeck's Of
Mice and Men a select group of characters find
themselves lost in a forgotten state of unc...

Make Such A Decision Kenzie And Gennaro One
1,040 words
Dennis Lehane writes satisfyingly complex and
disturbingly violent crime fiction that often
crosses into thriller territory. These are not,
however, cheap thrills. Even in their goriest
moments, his books are grounded in rich, real-life
detail. Lehane knows Boston and its denizens, and
he captures the citys subcultures beautifully from
the hushed refinement of the old-money suburbs to
the grittiness of tacky motels and bail-bond
agencies. He has a unique way of presenting his
mysteries with an e...

Crichton was one that had gone horribly wrong.
Rising Sun, in addition to being a gripping
mystery / thriller , functioned as a scathing
attack on American apathy to Japanese economic
aggression. In fact, in his afterward to the
novel, Crichton says, The Japanese are not our
saviors. They are our competitors. We should not
forget it. Statements like these earned Rising Sun
the dubious distinction of be...

Private School High School Looked

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I
saw a kid from my class was walking home from
school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was
carrying all of his books. I thought to myself,
Why would anyone bring home all his books on a
Friday? He must really be a nerd. I had quite a
weekend planned (parties and a football game with
my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my
shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw a

Hermia challenges her fathers unfair demands, on
pain of death or lifelong exile into solitary
confinement. She appeals to a higher law of
justice that is eternal, universal, and
divinely-given, that is higher in authority than
the temporal laws made by men. Her resistance to
authority represents the th...
