Heroes

I think that some heroes show mixtures of achievement and setbacks by either creating a plan that could help benefit those who need it but then have it blow up in their faces by having other people twist the words of that good deed and turn it against those it was originally supposed to help. I do not think less of heroes who show weakness or encounter failure. We all have weakness and we all encounter failures, so we should not think less of those who are considered heroes. Abraham Lincoln is one of those who I believe is a hero. He tried to help the blacks gain their freedom through the Emancipation Proclamation. He was able to succeed with helping to deal out this good deed.

The Trojan Horse: Myth or fact

We have all read about the Trojan Horse from the book the Illiad and we have seen films depicting the great cunning skills that the Greeks had shown when they built the wooden horse as a "gift" to the Trojans while all along their own men were hinding inside waiting to strike. But one question still remains: is the Trojan Horse a myth or fact?  Many people have tried to prove that this great wooden horse was the real thing, but we have recently found to prove that the Trojan Horse is nothing more than just a myth. The truth about the destruction of the great city of Troy was by an earthquake, not by Greeks hiding in a wooden horse. When we finally caught up with an archeologist, Cline, we asked him what he had to say about destruction of the city of Troy, he had this to say, "Homer may have taken the description of Troy 6 and the destruction of Troy 7, and, using poetic license, blurred the two into one ten-year-long war." Well there you have it folks, the truth about the the Trojan Horse finally comes to light. This has been History Mythbusters! Bringing you historical truth!

World without the Alphabet

I believe that if we lived in a world that did not have the alphabet, we would not have the books that we have today, no movies, no television, nothing. We would have to tell all of our stories orally.

Progression on my Resume assignement

I am still working on finding some of the things that I worked on and I am still working on what to say in my cover letter. My perception of resumes has not changed from the first day we did our freewriting about resumes.

Resumes

The one time that needed to use a resume was when I volunteered at my local library. I believe that resumes help the people at the job that a person wants to work learn a little bit about you and how well you can do a certain job. I have seen my older sister write resumes for certain jobs that she wanted to work at. I think that resumes are important because it helps people know a little bit more about your work ethics and how well you can do a certain job.
