As a young child‚ my grandfather who served on the U.S.S Indianapolis owned a massive amount of books specifically about World War II. Every day that I spent with him we would flip through the pages of the endless books at our disposal. He would reminisce and tell me all of his war stories with great enthusiasm until he was blue in the face. He sparked an interest of history and World

A world without computer This is a world without computers. I have once believed that the world would not change much because I’m not interested in computers at all‚ but it turned out to be quite the opposite.

assignment‚ to go 24 hours without media. Initially I believed that this would be an easy task but found that as a whole we are surrounded by media in every instance of our lives. From car rides‚ to simply walking around my house I had to be observant to avoid media that would reset my 24 hour time frame. In Postman’s book‚ "Amusing Ourselves to Death"‚ he reflects on how the television brings families to the same room but creates separation between them. In my time without media I spent two meals
