What is wrong with the women? They let themselves get treated horribly and still stay with these men. They need to get their heads together and stick up for themselves. Did all women get treated like crap back then? It sure seems as if a lot did.
I think this was a very hard story to read. It was very confusing. What I got from it was that the women seemed to be crazy. What was up with the hot dog?
Does anyone know? This is really confusing.
This was very interesting. I think it did a great job of comparing The Adding Machine and Machinal. I notice they were a little bit similar but this made it much clearer.
Our lives have become very easy due to science and inventions. Earlier in life people had to work so much harder just to live life. Now it is a breeze for us. But we still need to know what is the most important. It is to put our religious belief before science. If we would put science before our beliefs I think this world would be a crazy place.
I have to admit that this is my first blogging experience. It has been a bit painful. It sounds like it is easy, but it isn't really easy at all.
Bernice Bobs Her Hair
In this blog entry I discusses that this is a story that was written a long time ago but it relates to many teenagers today. I look more indepth at teenagers and why they feel the need to fit in. My discussion on this was done well because I fully understood the story.
A Jury of Her Peers
A Jury of Her Peers seems like a very realistic story it seemed as if this murder really could have happened. I discussed how the women seemed smarter than the men.
The Adding Machine
I thought The Adding Machine was a humorous play. I related the name of the character to what he actually seemed like nothing.
The Great Gatsby
In this blog I discussed how unrealistic this story was to me. I think that my discussions on the Great Gatsby were done well because of the fact that it was the easiest to understand.
The Great Gatsby II
I wondered why this guy was so great? This blog entry really made me think. I was thinking about the world great them it can to me.
The Love Song
In this blog I was confused about the title. Was it really about love?
The World Trade Center and Brooklyn Bridge
These poems I believe are about appreciation.
Daddy and In the Old Age of the Soul
I discusses that these two poems have many things in common. They both talk about death and dying.
MachinalIn this I discussed how crazy I thought this women was. Well I guess if you kill somene you have to be crazy.
American Drama
I discussed how this made it easier to see the connection between Machinal and The Adding Machine
Henry Adams on Mechanism and Modernism
I believe that we as humans need to have our priorities straight. Science should not be at the top of our list.
These two poems were extremely weird. Both of them were very hard to understand. What I got out of them was that they both were taking about death and someone dying. The poem titled Daddy was talking about killing their father and how much they hated him. This is odd. Also the author described everything as being black. I relate that color with death and dying. Both of these poems are very sad and negative.
This poem is very true. I feel a lot of people in the United States take many things for granted. It takes something bad to happen to appreciate it. We need to stop putting things down and appreciate them now before something happens to it. I can't believe a poem was written about the World Trade Center in 1996 when something even worse happened to this building in 2001. I do believe now, that everyone does appreciate this building and wishes it was still there.
I related this poem about the World Trade Center to the poem about the Brooklyn Bridge. They are both in New York, and I feel people do appreciate both of these. The poem about the World Trade Center was much easier to understand. What I got from the poem about the Brooklyn Bridge was that it was going through a day on the Brooklyn Bridge, from morning to night. It seemed a lot more complex.
