For my reaction paper I chose to go watch The Rocky Horror Picture Show at the Allen Theater on Friday night. I found the movie to be very interesting and hilariously funny.

The movie begins with a woman named Janet accepting a marriage proposal from her boyfriend Brad. The happy couple drives away

Scientific evidence does not suggest that wolves should be hunted in Michigan. Moreover‚ every reason that has been offered for why we should allow wolf hunting is misguided. They are hunted in areas where they have become highly populated for example in areas such as Montana and Idaho because their numbers have increased over 5000 they are killing off the deer and elk population

best friends and family. The poem reads like a shot of adrenaline straight into the listener’s bloodstream. Through his use of wordplay‚ imagery and tone‚ Ginsberg demonstrates the loss of freedom in American Society’s ever-confining reality.
