POW#7

Rating: *** out of *****- Thumbs Up
This is because the book is a bit all over the place, but has a solid story line. The problem I have is that it just isn't easy to follow. It jumps around a bit to me.

Questions:
-A question I have is how did this story come about, and is the story line realted to any real life experiance of yours?
-Another question is why is the setting in the decade it is?

Quote:
"To go further means to go back."- p.54 - WHALE TALK cc1984
-This doesn't make sense out of context, it is unique because it is used properly within context.

POW#5

My first pet dog was named Lily. My parents got her when she was one in 2001. I was 6 at the time and was obviously very excited. One of my favorite memories of her was when she first came home. I was outside with one of my neighbors and she came storming out of the car and tackled my neighbor. She was a rather wild dog for the first few years we had her. After she turned 5, she started to mellow down. When she was eight she was diagnosed with diabetes. She lived well for about 2 years until she started to turn for the worse this past August. She ended up passing the first day of school this year, August 17th.

This picture was taken this year when it was our first drumline show. I was very nervous but it all went well. Over the coarse of the season, we ended up getting a lot better. This picture represents a big part of my life because I have taken lessons since I was 9 to be on drumline. This being my first show I was pretty excited.

POW#4

Brutus:
Portia lately has been getting nosey on my business with Caesar. She knows that something is up. For some odd reason, she is beginning to ask me questions on how I am feeling. There is no hiding it, I am not well, but can I say why? No, and she shouldn't be so curious. On the other hand, there is no hiding it. It is not her fault on questioning my health. At least not lately. Yes, my plans with Caesar would definately upset her. It would upset anyone who believes in the things Caesar pretends to believe in. Yet, it is time for the man to fall. This has gone on too long, even if Portia disagree's with it.

Caesar:
Well, my wife had quite a dream of a fountain of me dripping with blood. A very odd dream, but it could be interpreted many ways. She believes it is a sign that I should not go to the senate today, even though they will offer me the crown. Brutus believes it is a fine day to get crowned, so I've decided to go agenst Calpurnia's word. All will be fine, and I will rule this land come soon. Even though a dream like she had came about, it can still be taken different ways. In my opinion she is getting more and more nervous each day. She should be satisfied, and happy that we have come as far as we have. Though Calpurnia had such an odd dream, I will go and accept the crown. All will be well.

The FreeCreditReport.com commercial uses the property of repetition because they repeat the name over and over in a song played on the commercial. The commercial is based on getting the name in your head and not based on convincing me to use their website. To me, this commercial is not convincing. Yet this property of propaganda is only based on getting it in your head, and that worked.

POW #1

The intense history of man dates back to the beginnings of our family tree's. My family tree goes back to England and Ireland, where my ancestors came from. My grandma came from England, and she immigrated during World War 2. On the other side of the family tree, my great grandfather came from Ireland in the early 20th century.As my family has a long history outside the borders of the U.S., the future of my family will more than likely remain within the U.S
