Good Literature

   Although John Steinbecks novel Of Mice and Men was first published in 1937, it gives several examples of a healthy mind (George) verses a non-healthy mind (Lennie). Good literature is something everyone should  learn how to use in their writing.

  Believed by Steinbeck, good literature comes from within the heart. "Literature is as old as speech." Good literature evidence: " humane heart in conflict with itself." "Mans proven capacity for greatness." Literature has been around for a very long time, since the alphabet or even before the alphabet.

  Talking in Crook's room Lennie gets violent with his words when discussing Georges return. "George gonna come back." Most of the book is not very good literature, but this is one of the best phrases or statements Lennie said throughout the book. " Endles war against weakness and despair." Helps us to know what we can do in the future.

  George describes to Lennie about the place they dream to have. "No place for rabbits now, but I could easy build a few hutches and you could feed alfalfa to the rabbits." George uses pretty good literature in his statements about rabbits.

 In everything people wright they should always use good literature. For what little schooling George and Lennie had, they both used good literature thoroughtout the book. To have good essays one should always use good literature.

The Fields of Gray

      Hay, the primary source of feed for cows in the winter. You feed hay to several different animals like: cows, horses, donkeys and goats year round but mainly in the winter, because they dont have green grass they can consume. In the summer when the fields are right you cut it down. Then you drive over it with a hay rake and line all the cut hay up in rows.
     Next you get ready to bail the cut hay. You hook up the bailer and bale it. You drive over the rows of hay with the tractor and bailer and it balls up and is set on the ground for later use. Once you have bailed all the hay, you line it up in rows of hay bales this time. You should cover it up but most people dont, or you can put it in a barn out of the weather for the winter.

911

"Why did the government not have an emergency response plan before the attacks?" They did not have a plan because, the government did not expect an attack of this size to happen. "Immediately after the first attack the government started putting emergency plans to help and to stop or try to stop the attacks."But now that there has been an attack the government did start putting emergency plans in place. The attack on the World Trade Centers was and still is a great tragedy that will neve be forgotten. The government just simply was not prepared for and attack of this size to happen. The government will be better prepared for future attacks.

I Am...

I am nice and smart.
I wonder what the world will be like in a hundred years.
I hear water running.
I see a purple pony.
I want a chocolate milkshake.
I am nice and smart.

I pretend purple ponies are real.
I feel sand under my feet.
I touch the rainbow.
I cry when purple ponies die.
I am nice and smart.

I understand purple pony talk.
I say purple ponies are real.
I dream of purple ponies.
I try to do the right thing.
I hope purple ponies never die.
I am nice and smart.
