The Roller Skating Rink Adolescents like to have a place they can call their own. In the 80’s and early 90’s‚ teenagers would hang out at the mall‚ the arcade‚ or many other spots. When I was a little girl‚ growing up in a small town‚ meant you had to travel to the city next door in order to find your weekend excitement.

Many people think of nursing as a career which centers solely on patient care. While this is largely a component‚ nurses truly cast their influence over patients’ loved ones just as much as the patients themselves.

Roller Skate Man The poem “Roller Skate Man” by Raymond Souster is about a legless man who gets around on a block of wood strapped to roller-skates. The central purpose of this poem is to make people realize that the way disabled people are treated in society is wrong. That is because the author/narrator describes the man to be physically unappealing by using words such as: “shrivelled body”‚ “freak” and “big head”.

“Riding the Rails” After watching the movie “Riding the Rails” I know understand why some kids would want to leave home and travel the country by boxcar. The conditions back home were awful. For one many of the railroad boys families were broke and some didn’t even have a home. It must have been quite sickening to be out traveling the country alone‚ just knowing you have virtually nothing to come back to other than your family‚ if that. Many kids who left home parent’s had lost their job and couldn’t
