The Full Moon
When the full moon happens, you turn into a person who is the opposite of who you are. Describe this new person.

Today... Well rested is the opposite of who I am.



Blessed Be

Nob Hill Bar and Grill FINAL DRAFT

Nob Hill Bar and Grill Nob Hill Bar and Grill is a favorite in the area; however that does not necessarily mean that it is worth your time. It is busy most week nights, and downright packed on weekend nights. There is no doubt that there is a strong, loyal customer base.  The service and food are not the best I have ever had, but they are by no means the worst. I do acknowledge that your reasons for dining anywhere would greatly affect your overall view of the experience. If you are going out for dinner out with friends just for the sake of dinning out, then this could be a good choice. Having a dinner with a significant other? This place would work, as long as the occasion was not something form. Going out for a casual work dinner, sure thing. I expected from more menu choices from this restaurant. Though the menu is not as varied as I would have liked, it was very specialized. There were items that I found to be too specific and detailed; the devil is indeed in the details i...

Fancy Analysis

Misty  Jennifer  English 1101 126 10 March 2014 The American Dream is different to all of us. In the song that I chose to analyze, Reba McIntyre’s rendition of Fancy, originally sung by Bobbie Gentry, her path starts from poverty, and ends in an elegant New York Townhouse Flat.

Her mother spent all of the money that the family had to buy Fancy a ‘dancin’ dress’. To me this is equated to how some families go into debt to pay for their children’s education. The idea behind both paths is the same. The parents give all that ...

Noe Article

We have to address an ANCIENT article about the similarities and differences in Rap and Country music. Noe’s thesis is that Rap music and Country are similar in several aspects. Those aspects being women, law breaking and the American Dream. They both tell stories to convey these messages. Noe comes to the conclusion that while both of these genres share many themes, it is in the way that they convey them that makes them different. The performers that convey them, more specifically the race of the performers, makes these songs come across differently to the mainstream public. While country can be seen as “red-neck” but mostly nonthreatening, rap can be in your face, and tell-it-like-it-is, even when what it is, is not what we want to hear.             One of Noe’s claims that I agree with is that crime does not pay. In “Mama Tried” by Merle Haggard, he sings about how his mother tried to keep him out of trouble, but he didn'...
