Fight Or Flight Tough Times
1,279 words
"Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work we go. " So sang
the charmingly quirky dwarfs in Disney's Snow
White. In many ways they stood for the hopes of
mid-century Americans: Hold down a secure job,
produce your share of goods or products, do what
the boss says, go with the program, and earn
enough to support a comfortable lifestyle for
yourself and your family. Things haven't really
changed all that much -- or have they? Only a few
of us are currently involved in any type of manual
labor or production. ...

Little Toys in the Hands of an Ego Tripped god
Well, let me introduce myself; my name is Chris
Rodgers and as a child I was rather cleaver and
many times extremely squirrel. Because of that my
childhood was even more interesting than most
childrens. Many of the toys that characterized my
essence when I was in the preteen years were the
vintage models of the incredible G. I. Joes, The
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Matchbox Cars, and
Cabbage Patch Dolls (and yes I did have names for
them). Let me ...

Hemingway's exploration of Man in The Sun Also

Jig, ' the man said. 'It's not really an operation

getting an abortion while waiting for a train in a

First Two Lines Roads Diverged
721 words
Robert Frost was one of the United States'
best-loved poets. Frost was greatly influenced by
his move from San Francisco to New England at the
age of 11, his move to England when he was 37, and
then his return to New Hampshire a couple of years
later (Knowledge Adventure 2). Robert Frosts
inspiration for his poetry came from within
himself. His decisions concerning which direction
his life would take can be seen in one of his most
acclaimed poems The Road Not Taken. Ultimately he
realized, as is...

Britain And France Foreign Intervention
476 words
No matter how high things are stacked against you,
nothing is inevitable. Whether in sports, war,
school, etc. , there is always a chance to
succeed. It was not inevitable for the North to
win the war due to one main key factor that could
have gone either way. The main factor that could
have changed the war was foreign intervention. If
Britain and France decided to get involved and
re-capture land in the US, then the Union would
have had to fight two or three wars at the same
time, taking away a...

Football And The Super Bowl

Knowing I had this assignment to complete, I was
planning on watching the Super Bowl alone. Then I
got invited to a Super Bowl party and I could not
refuse the opportunity to go out and socialize
with my friends. I was sick the past week and was
starved for some human contact. I am not really a
football fan, but this was Super Bowl Sunday, one
of the biggest parties of the year. So I went to
my friends house, armed with my notebook, and was
ready to analyze the game. Soon, more and more

Second Class Citizens Small Town
1,216 words
Throughout time the concept of gender and the
corruption of power associated with it has been a
very evident problem within society. Many texts
have been designed to expose these issues and in
particular the feature films Heathers, directed by
Michael Lehman and Shame, by Steve Jodrell. Both
these films have been heavily constructed in order
to position us as the audience to take a very
negative response towards the concepts of power
and gender and further an anti-conform attitude.

Allegory Of The Cave Educated Person

To be told what you know will build up a boundary
what you think you know. In both the Allegory of

they one day would find out that the truth isnt
just what they know, but it is what they will
learn. In this essay I will compare the story The
Allegory of the Cave, and the movie The Matrix.

Human Beings Primary School

It seems so long ago now, since the mischievous
days of mid-primary school. Since the days I never
did homework, and was ever so surreptitious to
avoid getting caught well trying to anyway. And
the days when my little ploys of forgetting to
have done homework, were discovered in the most
humiliating of ways. There was on specific day
this happened, I can vividly remember. It was

never contemplated high school or my future, a

They put a lot of time and effect into helping
others. It is not like they have all this time to

help those less fortunate. Those who serve have
very good morals because otherwise they would not
care about anyone or anything. If they did not

In the past sixteen years I have faced various

Kingsolver is one of the few American writers who
have refused to join George Bush's cheerleaders. A
writer who reminds her readers, as Kingsolver has
done, that every war is both won and lost would
hardly seem extreme over here, but in the US such
talk can receive some pretty nasty responses. One
writer in the Wall Street Journal suggested that a
reasonable response to Kingsolver's articles would
