Harrison Bergeron Summary
This short story is about a different world that is equal. So everyone is equal, and everyone lives alike each other, and the world is handicapped because some people are handicapped, so everyone is handicapped. In my mind, this is a paradise for liberals. And if you show them this book, they will probably want this world even more. So people, if you really want a world like that, become a liberal. That is beside the point, but is true, and the book is about some guy who was killed and their you go. The whole book in one summary.

Ethos, Pathos, Logos thingy
1.) I'm going to do a commercial for Coca Cola, it's ethos is how they use superheroes that drink it so it looks really good. The pathos is it makes you really thirsty for coke. Their is no logos for this commercial though. How ever, thief is humor, and that's what makes up for the no logos
2.) the next and last one I am going to do is the Heinz commercial with the wiener dogs dressed as hot dogs come running toward the dogs. The Ethos is that their are wiener dogs. The pathos is it makes you really hungry for hot dogs with ketchup on it mmm. Their is no logos but like the last one, their is humor which makes up for it.

"Ugg.... curesed that bewitched, corrupt, dreaded person." I repeated in my mind over and over again. I felt a lot of fatigue in my jail cell as I waited and waited for my time to come. That person was very impressive with the art of persuasion, while I, an incompetent little loser, failed to jeopardize him in his own game. I was a very keen and surly person, that's how I got myself here. That menace obliterated my car, While I just pondered into space. I needed to ruse my way out of here, but how? I could taint the jail window and make my escape? I needed a vengeance plan, and stop that withering human being.

Greek View, and modern view paragraph
The Greek View of the world both resembles and differs from the contemporary view of it. The Greek world view resembles the contemporary view that the world is flat. Additionally our modern day view is that the world Is round. However, the Greek view is not the same as the contemporary view because the Greeks believed that if you went to the end of the world, and fell off, then you would die. The Greeks also thought that their was a place called olyimpus and that is were the gods of this world lived. Therefore, even though the views have similarities, they differ in important ways.

Summery on "Gift of the Magi"
- In the short story, The gift of the Magi, by O. Henry, The book is about a poor woman with $1.78 dollars for all her money. Her husband, a man with a golden watch, is poor as well. The theme of this book is to love one another because the woman sold her presious hair and bought the husband a new chain for his watch, the husband sold his watch to buy his wife a brush for her hair. The whole story is so sad that I liturally almost cried reading this short story because how sad was it that they both gave up something that they love, for something for the other person. How sad it that?

Breaking News!
Today we have just interviewed a man named George Dowling who has been keeping a zebra named Zigzag in his property for someone. He claims that “He isn’t a pet, or not at least my pet”. Before we interviewed him, He said that he came out to feed Zigzag and while he was pouring Zigzag’s food. The zebra escaped and ran as fast as it could. Then a boy named Nick Ammons claimed that he shot a video of the zebra running. He also says that he posted it on YouTube. Nick said that the zebra was running, walking, and then running again. He also said that it appeared to be getting tired, then he’d stop look around, and keep going. Sometimes the zebra would turn a different direction and keep going. It ran for quite a while until it encountered 13th street. A Lady named Jessica Tradewell was looking for a certain address, until the zebra crash into the lady’s “old Mazda 626”. The car is totally destroyed, not even drivable too. The Zebra lay on the ground with a twitching leg. So Jessica called 911 and the operator just laughed at what Jessica had to say. After a while, the zebra was taken to Dr. Mark Hardt the veterinarian. The zebra is okay, He’s in stable condition. The zebra is also sleeping well now. Apparently the zebra could not sleep while he was with Mr. George Dowling. The zebra has some internal bruising and a broken hind leg. Dr. Hardt said that this zebra is lucky to be alive. Dr. Hardt also said that Zigzag should be fine in a few weeks. This means that lucky, if the lady wasn’t going so slow, the zebra would have been a lot worse. Zigzag is now leaving to go to Central Florida Zoo in Stanford. The Zoo there has veterinarians that are more qualified to treat zigzag then he is. Thank goodness Zigzag is okay. Zigzag can now live a better life in the Stanford Zoo.
