Santa Claus Net Profit
760 words
Today's Christmas is no longer a celebration of
Christ and happiness, but is a celebration of a
now fake, commercialized, overweight Santa Claus.
The idea of eating yet another turkey dinner while
watching a forgettable Disney movie on television
brings tears of pain, not joy, to one's eyes. The
main virtues of the holidays have gone from an
idealistic white wonderland, to a migraine-causing
festival of greed. The Christmas of the past was
once a beautiful celebration of the birth of
Christ. Fam...

Sit Up And Take Notice Energizer Bunny Batteries
829 words
Energizer batteries have been equated with
long-lasting energy in your Walkman or other
battery-operated appliance. "That damned Energizer
bunny" is the cause; he's so aggravating. It seems
like that pink bunny rabbit is running across the
television screen every other second, it's so
annoying. The advertising campaign has been so
effective that not only did the company (finally)
surpass Duracell in sales, but the advertising
company was awarded an Obie (the advertising
equivalent of the "Oscar"...

Things In Life Poor Boy

A Youth in Poverty To most, it's very easy to
imagine how it would feel to grow up without much
of anything in life. Hell... I can tell you first
hand what it feels like to not have a decent pair
of shoes or pants without holes in them, or old
"hand-me-down" toys while most of the kids you
know have "state-of-the-art" toys. To many
children in this kind of situation, it seems like
a very bleak world to live in. No child should
ever have to experience this kind of life.
However, due to ignorant p...

Life In Ancient Greece
2,225 words
Life in Ancient Greece The life of the past was
indeed quite different from life as we see and
perceive it today. People were thinking
differently, the cultures and behaviours were also
different. However if we examine any time span we
might find that still most of the people on the
planet Earth, no matter what are the historical
contexts and prepositions that surround them, are
concerned with very universal things of the
personal living. When I say universal, I mean
something like having a dece...

Men And Women Set Of Standards

THE EFFECTS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Whoever said men
and women are equal must be blind. Women have
always taken a back seat to men in American
society. There has always seemed to be one set of
standards that apply to men, and another set of
standards that apply to women. This is evident in
the home, workplace, and all throughout society. I
would like to briefly discuss some of the
differences that we learn about our gender, which
will enable us to better understand men, women,

role behaviors. Sex differences in the
socialization differences of parents (mostly

The Teenage Violence Option B The events that
happened in Littleton, Colorado at Columbine High
School in April were tragic. No one will nor
should attempt to defend the actions of the two
gunmen, but it is beneficial to look into the
reasons that this did occur as a preventive
measure of sorts. Simply looking back over the
past few years of teenage violence a picture
