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

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"...

Three Months Attend School

I started Life The Life I started using mild
sedatives in my late junior high years. This soon
led to the use of hallucinogens. I soon realized I
knew all and I did not need school any longer.
This led to a dilemma. In the state of Florida you
must attend school until the age of sixteen, where
I was only fifteen. So the next step was either
attend school or get shipped off. Obviously, in my

School Uniforms Cost Effective
255 words
Mandatory school uniforms would make schools not
only a better place, but a better learning
environment. Uniforms give a sense of belonging
and prevent dress code problems. School uniforms
are also very cost effective. Some students feel
they have to have the expensive designer clothes
to fit in and be cool. Uniforms would allow every
to wear the same thing and help kids fit in. Not
only would it help kids fit in but it would help
kids concentrate on school not what they are
wearing. Schools hav...

Division Of Labor Fewer And Fewer Markets
490 words
I thought Marx's Wage Labour and Capital was much
more interesting and easier to understand than the
previous reading. In this section, Marx attacks
the idea of competition, division of labor,
capital growth, and the injustice that workers
must face as a result of them. Marx says that even
with capital growth that would ideally benefit the
working class, the antagonism between his [the
workers] interests and the interests of the
bourgeoisie still exist and that profit and wages
remain as before ...

issues of racism, slavery and education in a
humorous, almost childish way, yet the effective
themes are clearly visible. Twain utilizes Huck
