Maybe it is because of close proximity or maybe it is a fight for which team is the best in the county, but since the two schools started playing each other in 1926, tensions have always ran high in every aspect of competition. At any sporting event between the two schools, one can expect to see a gym, stadium, or field packed with the opposing colors of red vs blue. It is not just the players that make it such a strong competition. Fillmore is a town where you get those teachers who taught your mom, your dad, your grandpa, and all of your siblings.

    The Dragon In Grendel's Ethical For Meaning

    According to the dragon in Grendel, it is ethical for humans to place value on the life of another creature since nothing in the entire universe has any true meaning or value. In chapter five of Grendel, the dragon tells Grendel that “In a billion billion billion years, everything will have come and gone several times, in various forms… Meaningless, however. These jugs and pebbles, everything, these too will go” (Gardner 70). The dragon clearly believes nothing in the universe has a meaning or a purpose; everything just exists. Therefore, the dragon says, it is ethical for humans to place value on other creatures because the value they place on those creatures is meaningless – simply an illusion created by humans to make sense out of the universe.…

This is demonstrated during his time spent with the dragon, pages fifty-seven through seventy-four. The dragon is largely selfish and nihilistic, however Grendel refuses to believe the negativity presented by the dragon. On page seventy, one may read the dragon speaking of all of the world being consigned to oblivion. That is, he states that eventually all current occurrences will be meaningless. “You don't know that!” Grendel simply debates. Additionally, page seventy-one the dragon is speaks of the little to no effect that even an apocalyptic age would have on the world over time.…
