Captain Jack Sparrow Inc. sells new and used pirate ships. It makes most of its money from new products and attempts to move used ones quickly, particularly since the pirating season is greatly shortened during hurricane season, and it does not want to be caught with extensive storage costs throughout the summer. Each September it has a major “blow-out, ships-ahoy” sale which is heavily promoted and provides genuine savings. Davey Jones is in the market for a used pirate ship. He tells the salesperson he wants a basic pirate, “no pirate tricks,” and as good a deal as he can get.
On a dark and stormy night, Able, age 13 and Bonnie, age 15, discussed how great it would be if they had some money to spend on their weekend trip to the beach. They consulted Clyde, age 21, knowing that he was very sneaky and knowing he would easily come up with a plan for money. The three agreed that they would go to the home of their neighbor (Nelly hereafter), take a $2000 vase from the living room, and sell it for $750, leaving them each with $250 dollars. All agreed that Clyde would get the vase. Clyde immediately walked to the neighbor’s front door and opened the window.
April 04, 2011 Journal for Jordan by Dana Canedy opens different points of view on the decision of Charles having gone to war when his partner Dana had just become pregnant. She has an opinion about his decision as expressed when she says: “He simply could not be sent into battle. It had taken us too long to find each other” (Canedy 105). At the same time she tries to support Charles because she knows how hard he fought for it and how important this mission was for him, as we see in the following sentence uttered by Dana: “I did have political view about war—everyone did, and I could have forced him into debating the issue. But none of that seemed right now.
But now, she becomes a widow, her husband and mother died and her brothers were grow up, she does not need to support any one more, she does not need to live for any one more. Nora, a beautiful lady, who was the best example for the “pass rule”, her husband, Torvald helped Nora’s father, then Nora’s family let Nora marry with Torvald as a return gift. Nora did not have any free choices, she had to do this for
These stories are very similar in that both Matt and Emily kill out of love for someone, but Matt's murder is for closure after his son Frank is killed, where as Emily's is because she is afraid of being alone. Emily is portrayed by the narrator, who seems to speak for the whole town, “we”. Her character traits are peculiar due to the manner in which her father raised her. She obviously had issues about her over protective father. When her father died, all the ladies offered condolences, “Miss Emily met them at the door, dressed as usual and with no trace of grief on her face.
These levels convey the irony of the sighted seeing far less than the blind. It is only through their association and ultimate connection with Robert that the sighted characters learn to see. The narrator’s wife at first does not see the poor choices she has made in life. As the narrator describes, her first marriage left her empty, lonely, and cut off from the world. To her the only solution was a failed suicide attempt (Carver, 2004).
By accepting the obligation to bury Polyneices, Antigone acts as if she has no choice. “It is a law carried out by a sister for a brother.” (Jacobs 893)" " " " Devotion to family is also shown through Eurydice’s love for her sons and Haimon’s love for her fiance. Eurydice puts a knife through her chest after her second son is killed, “And a great cry burst from her lips for Megareus dead, and for Haimon dead, her sons; and her last breath was a curse for their father, the murderer of her sons.” (SCENE V 114-116). It clearly shows her love and devotion to her family because she does not want to be alive without them. Eurydice values (blood) family over strict society laws.
Because she believes this she writes her will and makes trips to visit all of her children. This becomes a jilt because she doesn’t die. The third jilt is when she is on her death bed and again asks God for a sign. When there is no sign she is greatly disappointed and believes she will never forgive God for
We would have all thought of her as still the same loving mother who watches her son, Cash, methodically build her coffin not because she is ready and wanting soon to be in it, but because he is her son and she loves to see him work. And I know for sure if Addie's chapter was never written, that our English round table discussions would have never been as
Mallard and her husband to me seem like she loved him but was not in love with him. The story talks about certain situations that she must live thought like the death of her husband. The reader would think that by hearing the news that Mr. Mallard had been killed, Mrs. Mallard would be upset and hurt, instead she felt liberated and free to live her live as she please. It seems that once she found out that her husband was dead that now she could finally live for herself establish her own identity. Mrs. Mallard cried but it was not tears of sorrow, it was tears of joy.
