Furthermore‚ dramatic irony is used effectively‚ because of not only adding comedic relief but also to elaborate the story line. One

This scenario can be tentatively compared with the situation Microsoft faced and the argument about market monopoly‚ the American

    Response #2 “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson and “Eveline” by James Joyce were the pieces that appealed to me the most. This could be because they were the first two stories that I read and by the time I got to the poems my attention span was dwindling away or because both stories have similar writing approaches. I can’t figure that out. I found “The Lottery” to be very eerie and disturbing. After I read it‚ I pictured M. Night Shyamalan making a creepy‚ dramatic film based on it. I think it’d

    Danny Nazzaro Reading Response Paper 3/2/2014 Micah Mintz The Idea of civil forfeiture would seem outdated unless you were part of its sweeping experience. After reading such a story‚ I think it is unfair‚ obscured‚ and a way of America that people do not see. Although it seems ridiculous it does seem to have both negative and positive impacts. Civil forfeiture seems to keep law enforcement agencies running and fund their wants more than needs. The ability to seize money and use it for your

    Horace Miner Response Horace Miner’s essay "Body Ritual Among The Nacirema" is deeper then a clever critique of the absurdities of the American culture. Other then mocking the science of anthropology‚ Miner shows how an outsider would view America. This sight would not be much different from an American viewing an uncivilized village in the middle of the forest. Miner’s essay extensively proves that the culture of America is not very different then many other civilizations. The perspective
