The Griffin and The Minor Canon

This assignment is on “The Griffin and The Minor Canon” by Frank R. Stockton. We have to make up a story for the Minor Canon where he shows fear but he’s confronted on it by anyone.

After the griffin left the Minor Canon the Minor Canon went into town fearing for the equinox coming up but he had to hide it and keep pretending he wasn’t scared of the griffin even though he was. Later that day Charlie Sheen appears from the woods and the Minor Canon is very surprised to see him, he comes closer and confronts the Minor Canon, he says, “Hello Minor Canon, I’ve been watching you for some time now, as I can see from your experiences with the Griffin, you’re very scared of him even though you don’t let it show.” The Minor Canon replies asking, “How do you know?”
“I have mind reading powers, every time you’re with him you get even more scared of him.”
“I know but I don’t know what I can do.” Santa Clause comes in from the sky on his sleigh.
“Oh Minor Canon you should listen to Charlie for if you just confront your fear or run away you will be safe from the Griffin and you won’t be scared of him anymore.” Says Santa.
“But I can’t run away for I’m to scared the Griffin will do something horribly bad.” replies the Minor Canon. “Don’t worry Minor Canon I know just what you need.” says Charlie Sheen as he walks into the woods. “I’m back!!!!” yells Charlie Sheen coming back with Miley Cyrus.
“How is Miley Cyrus going to help me with anything?” asks the Minor Canon.
*Miley Cyrus starts singing* “Oh now I’m not scared, I can do this, I’ll run away from the village and bring the Griffin away with me so everyone in the village will be safe!” screams the Minor Canon. The Minor Canon leaves the village so that everyone in it is now safe and forever will be safe for the Griffin followed him, Santa went back to the North Pole, and Charlie Sheen left back into the woods and Miley remained in the village for the rest of her life.

    Tobolowsky’s article echoes thoughts and feelings about Santa, fears about life, and general doubts that are common to almost every child at some point in his or her life. Stephen describes childhood events and his own propensity toward fear and doubt in a frank and humorous manner that reminds me of Ralphie’s narration in A Christmas Story. Underneath the humor, however, there exists the real torment of doubt and fear that Stephen experiences, fear of the dark, fear of strange noises at night, fear of monsters living in his bedroom. While these fears simply frustrate his well-intentioned parents, they drive Stephen to create remedies of his own to allay his fears. However,…

    Some individuals who are eager to put race in the past have proclaim that America possesses a “post-racial” time, which Griffin describes as a time that individuals believe race is no longer constricting and “for which we have little use” (Griffin 132). Farah Jasmine Griffin, in “At Last …?: Michelle Obama, Beyoncé, Race & History”, argues that First Lady Michelle Obama and Beyoncé Knowles show evidence of transformation for race relations in America, while exhibiting the reality that racial inequality is still alive and well throughout the nation. By understanding the experiences and background of race relations, Griffin allows readers to comprehend how these two impressive black women use their history to increase or decrease their popular…

    Within my expository essay I have chosen to focus on elements of Arthur Millers, ‘The Crucible’, which Illustrates the notion that fear creates various and diverse responses in people. My essay revolves around characters who exhibit signs of attack in the face of conflict, and conversly those who retreat. I have also drawn on the documentry about the Tank Man to explore further the way in which people will react when faced with conflict. Considering my audience, teens and young adults, I have chosen to write in a formal manner, although I will tone it down to appeal more to their language and to retain their attention.…

    He remembers how he was rejected, and then he feels regretful and sad for what he had done and what might happen because of him. In the second stave it says, “The school is not quite deserted,” said the Ghost. “A solitary child, neglected by his friends, is left there still” (33). This depicts that Scrooge had no one that really loved him. He didn’t have any real friends or people to talk too. Scrooge thinks about what he has done, and says regretfully, “There was a boy singing a Christmas carol at my door last night. I should like to have given him something” (36). This demonstrates that Scrooge knows that he has made mistakes, and is starting to become a better person, with the Ghosts’ help. Scrooge becomes sad, finally thinking about someone other than himself. “Spirit,” said Scrooge, with an interest he had never felt before, “Tell me if Tiny Tim will live.” “I see a vacant seat,” replied the Ghost, “In an old chimney corner, and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved. If these shadows remain unaltered by the future, the child will die” (65). This shows that Scrooge really does care about other people. He is recognizing his emotions for other people…
