All that You Ca N't Leave Behind and Good Work Ricky
Those are more or less your words.
I’ve explained myself at nausea.
Well then I stand corrected.
What difference does it make?
That’s how that went down.
Let’s face it; you are not the hardest nail in the toolbox.
I’m not one to fake it.
I am out of my element.
It’s a two way street.
I’m not exactly dancing in the streets.
First impressions count.
Are you trying to convince me or yourself?
Why is it such a stretch?
We all skate on the same thin ice.
It’s a double edged sword, welcome to the other side of the blade.
It doesn’t make sense, it never did
This was a money play from the get go
I’ve made mistakes but it’s not your job to count them
Your condition is still very tenuous
Profit is not a four letter word, profit is a great motivator
Nothing of any consequence happened last night
There are no hard or fast rules
You are blowing this way out of proportion
Maybe that’s just force of habit
He was complicent up until now
Get noticed by top brass
Jack of all trades, master of none
I know what I did, I was there
A word of warning
Don’t squander this opportunity
You’re a stand-up guy
Bite off more than you can chew
No harm, no foul
That’s absurd, ridiculous and untrue
I trust him as far as I can throw him
Are we on the same page?
It’s out of my hands
I can’t start any sooner than right now
There is too much riding on this
If it wasn’t so serious, it’d be funny
Oversimplifying a very complicated situation
The first generation makes it, the second one keeps it and the third one pisses it against the wall.
This is not my first rodeo
I’m a pragmatic man, I don’t drive down a road that leads nowhere, I stop and I turn around
One day a rooster, next day a feather duster
In the spirit of love and reconciliation we can forgive the treasurer
It’s not the sort of thing you have at your fingertips
Cut through the noise
Sometimes long shots pay off the biggest
If you don’t take the risk you lose the

    Just as every person differs from one another, undoubtedly each generation also differs from the next. Every generation has its unique attitudes, and lifestyle choices. Whereas earlier generations experienced various historical events, e.g. the baby boomers and the Vietnam War, that considerably impacted their viewpoints, so is the case for each generation. Whereas generation X is often associated with being the latch-key kids, having considerable access to education, and witnessing various historical events such as the Cold War, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Millennials are often labelled as the me-generation, having equal access to education regardless of socio-economic barriers, experiencing historical events such as 9/11, the war in…

    In “The Road Not Taken,” Robert Frost gives his readers a speaker standing at a “fork” in the road- or having to make a decision. Robert Frost uses extended metaphor, irony, and an unreliable narrator to show his reader’s that, when choosing life courses, one must consider where the path is actually going verses from how it may appear.

    Bounded by the knee tall grass on both sides of the road for as far as the eye can see, I drive down this lonely one lane highway, afraid to stop, unsure of what would happen, if my car scraped the ground, and a spark hit the dead grass on either side of the narrow road, thinking that the world might just go up in flames. The long snake like road twists and turns through the bleak dead country side as if it were stalking prey – and I was the prey. I drive for what at times feels like forever. Every so often I look back to see where I came from, trying to remember where I’m going. Then it hits me where I am. I’m on the road to…

    Here I am captured in this irritating street where all I can do is listen to music and look at Facebook. I am waiting for cars to start moving and continue with their destination. Little do I know that ahead of me is a two hour traffic. I am already tired, bored, and furious. I cannot believe I took this road home instead of my usual route. Why do I have to try new things? I should stick to what I know. While I sit in the drivers’ sit I am still wondering why I had the bright idea of taking a new way home, a way that I had little knowledge of.…
