i was interesting and sad at the end, logically i think it was the right choice perhaps because it looked like he really wanted to escape but damn why he had to be such a loner. If that were me I would want someone to share all that with and i also feel like bad for his sister i mean they seemed close and he couldn’t even send her a letter or call, its not like he didn’t have time to think about that kind of stuff he had allot of time to kill, maybe he should have stayed with that white trash looking bunch, it looked like that younger girl really liked him he could have traveled with her, but who am i to say how someone should live there life, i have respect for the man and also sympathy i bet if he gotto turn back teh hands of time he would do alot of things different

Hitlers dream

March 24, 2008

If you tell a lie long enough, loud enough and often enough, the people will believe it. The secret to get someone to believe a lie is constant repetition. Just tell it over, and over, and over again.” – Adolph Hitler

Adolph Hitler was a leader. A man with a Horrific Ideology. His words of persuasion put into events that shook the very grounds of Europe. The thought that there was a race of man that was more intelligent, stronger, and superior in every way. Causing the deaths of thousands of Jews. The Holocaust killed half of the Jewish population in Europe during the time of WWII. The German nation was in national debt causing a economic disaster. Adolph Hitler was the voice in the darkness, the last strength of a nation in despair. when a man is at his low point a person with enough enthusiasm and strength to carry the poor man out of his slum, then that person will be praised and followed.

Words are a powerful thing make no mistake of it, words are a double bladed sword which can be used to build up someone and protect them or on the other side words can be used to tear down someone and destroy them. In the Article (Kind of cussin’) by Marlon Manuel he is warning us that kids are becoming more disrespectful and practicing dangers habits such as cussin’ lightly which he is afraid that it might lead to bigger things such as drugs sex. I am not that afraid of the word utters by school children I don’t think this is enuff to corrupt them I am more worried about who is raising these children. Words are changing this world everyday weather its words uttered from the president to start a war or the words of a envirmentallist to save a wild life refuge.  

                        Now to switch the subject a bit I would like to talk about cussing first off lets start off with the word “fuck” the grand dad of all cuss words, I have uttered this word countless times through out my life and it hold no significance meaning any more I am stuck with this bad habit of cussing and haven’t been able to change it; since its just a habit and I talk with my homies like that, but I don’t know why I do it I don’t get that tingle and the sensation of saying “fuck” no more like I did when I was a kid. Instead I just get that ugly word throughn in my everyday vocabulary for everyone to hear.

                        “ I hate this crap” (Kind of cussin’ by Marlon Manuel at the bottom of second paragraph). I never knew crap was a bad word, but but after I finished reading this article I released some people think it is, I personally do not find this word offensive at the least I don’t find it offensive when my five year old brother utters the word “shit” after dieing in a video game. But there is a limit I would take offenses if my brother told me I played like shit on a video game like a sword he just struck me with his words and when cussin’ is use like this weather my little brother said I am “shit” or “crap” at a video game I would take offences. So I guess its all in who you use your words.

          “When a child in the 1960s saying “crap” would have gotten his mouth washed out”  (Marlon Manuel; kind of cussin’) Yes time has a way of changing things like for example the word gay aint what it used to be in the 60s. what the older generation thought to be offensive we might not, that is to be excepted so it would be a good idea to be kind and choose your words wisely when around the elderly.

I think the world is ready for change to clean up our acts but sadly I don not know if this is possible, but when you really look at it cuss words are NOT necessary we can get by with out em, and if you have worked them into your everyday vocabulary like me then we have some work to do to try to clean up the way we talk because when it comes down to it cuss is just a ugly way to talk. But do not get me wrong I am NO fan of light cussin’ I think if you are going to light cuss tehn fuck it you might as will cu

i am intrigued by Thoreau’s passion for literature. He came off to me to be slightly arrogent. i was disappointed in how he talked down the bible and those who would find faith in its texts. I believe even if you are not a religious you can find an abundance of advice to live ones life. Just like the Refuge by Terry Tempest Williams, Thoreau found his refuge in solitude with his books.

Hetch Hetchy

March 2, 2008

 very power words spoken and written by John Muir i didn’t find the beginning to be boring at all, i felt its was almost necessary to put in all the descriptions of the place to get the feel of what he was trying to save, I feel for him on wanting to preserver the landscape and the animals there, but then again i don’t believe people should go with out power. But in the back of my mind i am almost certan that this is not Right, you shouldn’t dam up s place like hetch hetchy, some things in this world are meant to be shared with other people and no to mention to respect the wild life and not destroying there homes. I hope Hetch Hetchy aint destored and it is still up i would like to see it one of these days
