“Mama: What you been doing for these three days, son?” (105) Walter replied by telling her he spent his work time just driving, roaming the streets of their small are, and drinking at the Green Hat. (105) Also, after Walter was finally given another chance to prove himself a man, he disobeyed his mother. Lena told him that he could have a share of the money, if he put a small some into a safe bank account for his sister Beneatha. (106) Instead of doing so, Walter poured every single cent of the money into the hands of another man. Karma came back to bite him for his Selfish actions.
There are dozens of shops that sell K2 and they don't care where the shops are and the causes it has on the surroundings. One example of this is a shop in Manurewa that is named "high zone " which is poorly located right behind a well-used bus stop that is used to go to Southmall, a popular mall in Manurewa. My grandmother had to use this bus stop once and said that she kept coughing and it felt like she was choking on all the fumes the store was producing. K2 can also lead to problems such as lung cancer and heart disease. K2 is one of the two most
Hey, don’t get upset fella, me love you long time, right?” Insert moment of coughing that sounds like wet sandpaper. “Your friends there don’t give a damn, they’re progressive fags…ain’t ya fellas?” The last line was half shouted as the table was already halfway out the door. It was only a matter of time before he would lose the crowd followed by losing interest in concentrating and trying to make it through a set. The crowd usually had a collective weight lifted off their shoulders when he would stumble off the stage or drum riser. And I think some nights the
Some of the participants got “sloppy” and these were not all Irish and Chinese.” (Document 16-1 p. 34). He describes how the Vice President of the Union Pacific and one Governor both missed a spike on their first try, and the crowd reacted by howling at miss and slapping one another on the back with delight (Document 16-1 p.34). Toponce discusses mainly how everyone behaved during the occasion, which indeed made it an impressive one. 2. During the completion of the first transcontinental railroad, Toponce reveals how the construction camps were filled with all the toughs the west had, and implied that drinking and gambling were the blandest things people would do there (Doc 16-1 p.34).
Unfortunately, he lacked the funds to live the life he not only imagined, but told constant lies about it. "He had autograph pictures of all the members of the stock company which he showed his classmates, telling them the most incredible stories of his familiarity with these people, of his acquaintance with the soloists who came to Carnegie Hall, his suppers with them and the flowers he sent them" (Cather, n.p). Paul went from being a boy who escaped Cordelia Street by visiting Carnegie Hall, to being a runaway thief to New York, to a boy whose dream of an extravagant lifestyle was ruined by an impetuous decision. While it was true that Paul did escape the mundane life of Cordelia Street to the vibrant world of Carnegie Hall and the stock theatre, he did not live the exquisite life he led others to believe. Paul really did have acquaintances of the stock theatre.
Although the line, “no-one had got around to fixing it up yet”, shows that he is still seeing everything as a product that has the potential to be fixed. The fifth stanza has an angry tone as Dawe describes people as being “godless, money-hungry, backstabbing and miserable”. In this stanza, his childhood ends and he enters adulthood, this is shown through the line “goodbye stars and soft cries in the corner”, the once innocent child has now become a greedy business man who is selfish and ruthless. In stanza six, his wife (Alice), is driving him home from a not so good dinner party, as he is angry and getting annoyed with his wife, “now take it easy on those curves, Alice, for God’s sake…” they crash. His last words “watch it” demonstrates the irony of being a product, as if to watch it on
It was fun until he had spent all his money on her and had to write home to his parents because he was broke. 57. Victor couldn’t stand to look at Teresa. He was sweaty with shame. “Yeah, well, I picked up a few things from movies and books and stuff like that.” They left the class together.
When the check came, and Mama put the money down on the house, he said to her bitterly, intending to cause as much pain as possible, “So you butchered up a dream of mine—you—who always talking ‘bout your children’s dreams...”(95) Yes, he was upset, but there’s a limit to what you can do and say before it turns intentional. He gave up on his dreams, much like Beneatha did later on, and because of that, he lost his conviction. He didn’t go to work for 3 days, instead took Willy Harris’ car and drove off places, and went to the Green Hat and got drunk, for three days. Almost lost his job, putting his family into deeper trouble than it already was. “Ain’t that a sad, ain’t that cryin’ sad,”(104) was his only comment.
Finally, Holden did not accept the reality of his brother's death, which was indicated during one of Holden's visits to Allie's grave. During the visit, it began to rain. All the other visitors ran for the protection of their cars, but Holden felt depressed because Allie could not escape the rain. When he saw the visitors leaving, Holden scowled at the thought of them going some place fore dinner, while Allie could only lie in his grave. Holden continued to believe that his brother felt emotions.
These reasons are Tom Robinson has an immobile left arm due to an incident in his childhood where his muscles got smashed, Bob Ewell is known as a “town drunk” and when he is drunk he usually abuses her daughter, Bob Ewell is left handed, Bob Ewell would’ve been able to catch up to Tom Robinson when he was running out of the house because he can’t run fast also due to his left arm, the time period of this trial was in the 1920’s to the 1930’s an old fashion time period like this had a lot of racism and discrimination to African Americans, they think of African Americans as dirty people, liars, and cheaters, and the jury was all white. Tom Robinson is not guilty because of the following main reasons; evidence has flaws, the time period of this trial, he was an African American, and the behavior and social structure of the city Maycomb, Alabama. My comment is that Tom Robinson did not have a “fair” trial at all. And we should all be reminded to stand up against racism and stand up for what you think is
