A quote i found from my reading was these days sportsman and enviornmentalists are really the same person and i found this interesting because they basically are in the means that the new word the book came up with is eco-redneck which is a cross between the two because there are so many people that love the nature yet they want to get out there and hunt still or take doen trees.

November 16th, 2009 by johni have gotten some useful information from this class and other people helping me in my papers. I dont really like mycomp lab all that much and it gets tough figuring out where we have to hand our things into because we use 4 different tools and it gets annoying. other than that i like the course we have done some fun things and i find it helpful to be more hands on other than just reading something and trying to remember it.

truth
November 11th, 2009 by johnwhen asking the questions about who had been to hawaii i felt that alex was telling the truth in his answers and meg was not. when meg was asked questions it took her a second to think of something. she seemed less confident about her answers than alex was. i also felt when that she was a lot more figity than alex was so these are my thoughts on who i thought was telling the truth.

November 9th, 2009 by johnpeople grow by expeirencing new things. i will have all kinds of new expeireinces in europe. i could really grow as a person from this trip.
i find this to be true because you always learn something new and if you travel youll probably learn a lot more about their culture and such.
all to many marriges end up in a divorce.
i alos find this happening more frequently now a days and it is kind of degreding know that people arent getting married because of love but more because of money and such. i was reading a book by a future teller and sylvia brown i think and she said there wont even be marriges in the next 10 to 15 years so maybe she is right who knows.

November 6th, 2009 by johnwriting is not like painting where you add. it is not what you put on the canvas that the readers sees. writing is more like a sculpture where you remove, you eliminate in order to make the work visible. even those pages you remove somehow remain. (elie wiesel) i see how this quote works because even though you have thrown papers away its still in your mind and you can work off of it and the final sculpture would be the final paper.
I write entirely to find out what is on my mind, what im thinking, what im looking at, what im seeing, and what it means. thisquote i dont really do all that much i am not a very good writer so this quote doesnt work for me.

I did feel the comments were helpful and thank you everyone that helped rivise my paper
ben franklin
November 2nd, 2009 by johnwhen reading through ben franklins virtues there are 13 different ones. one that i felt is a streangth might be justice it says wrong none, by doing injuries or omitting the benifits that are your duty. this gives us justice and makes one feel a little safer . one i felt that might have been agianst me is industry because it says lose no time be always employed in doing something useful cut of all uneccary actions. I feel that we should not just dowork all the time but have free time in life to so we can be happy. i see some value in doing what he says but i also feel that we have to do things differently.
New in the U.S.
October 29th, 2009 by johnI chose the first artcle in the book. To these people that are becoming a citizen it seems like a huge deal to them. I think we take for granted what we have in the U.S. and dont look at what we can do with our freedom. These people were so excited and they would be able to vote and travel with a U.S. passport. These people had to work for this citizenship by taking a series of test quizzes and even verbal tests with an INS official. These people are taking a chance by moving away from their home countries to become apart of ours. They have to start all over and begin with almost nothing .
