Good politicians get to know a lot of politicians. Lyndon Johnson would take four showers a day and brush his teeth over and over again so he would be in the same room with a bunch of politicians and he could talk to them briefly and make good connections.

The story shows how a odd friendship between Dave Jensen and Lee Strunk came to be. The overall story sounds very skeptical as Jensen and Strunk “got into a fishfight. It was about something stupid-a missing jackknife” (O’Brien 62) and then Jensen “borrowed a pistol‚ gripped it by the barrel‚ and used it like a hammer to break his own nose” (O’Brien 63). The story has a point of showing how Jensen’s

The sound of marching boots and distance explosions fills the damp air of the overgrowth streets as I just outside with Jensen by my side. The thunder storm roars above us as it prepares to rain down upon us again‚ but that’s not what baffles me. There’s an extremely high pitch zipping sound in the air and it’s nothing like I’ve ever heard before. Jet carriers are the source of the strange sound as they zoom at impossible speeds above us.

Bryjak (Jensen Private Investigations Website‚ 2012). Media overdramatizes crime in two ways according to this article. First of

How does the purpose of the book of Acts determine the interpretation of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost in Acts 2 (Jensen‚ 209-216)? “The primary purpose of Acts must have been edification‚ for it was inspired and written to profit for teaching‚ reproof‚ correction‚ and instruction in righteousness- a ministry of edifying of the church of God.” (Jensen 1981‚ p 210).

Once upon a time there was a nursing student named Jensen Richards. Jensen had always had a passion for nursing and compassion for people. This compassion only grew stronger once she was old enough to work in a nursing home as a CNA. Going to Oshkosh for nursing seemed to be an easy choice for Jensen; it was the only school on her mind. Her parents both attended Oshkosh and it was the perfect distance from home. Jensen knew that she would have to work really hard in college because the average GPA
