.... storms were often times massive and destroyed crops, houses and the lives of anyone living near it. By mid March, the storms had become commonplace in Amarillo and Dodge City. Residents began to accept them as a part of daily life. On April 10, 1935, a dust storm rolled through Texas and Oklahoma and on to Kansas. The storm lasted for over twenty-four hours, and set a record for intensity and duration of a storm.

.... movie producer, he was thinking about his next movie that he was going to produce. He had come to the conclusion that he would base his movie on the book The Emerald City of Oz, since that was his favorite out of all fourteen of the Oz books. Samuel wanted this to be the best movie he had ever produced, so he was trying to think of ways to make the movie the best it could possibly be, and then it came to him. He could try to get a hold of Glinda the good witch and see if she an Ozma could try to get Dorothy and anyone else who wanted to come, to New York. He would assure her that Dorothy .....

.... can’t handle it doesn’t see it through, and is wounded by it (Johnson 9).” Johnson’s idea is somewhat universal; the majority of men can find a moment where the innocent veil of boyhood was pierced, or an event in that the ease of being gives way to struggle and conflict. In this sense, “all men are Fisher Kings. Every boy has naively blundered into something that was too big for him, gotten halfway through, realized that he couldn’t handle it, and collapsed. Then he is wounded, he is hurt terribly, and he goes off to lick his wounds. A certain bitterness arises because h .....

.... are examples of aristocrats that are not as they appear. Like a stereotype of an aristocrat they live in nice big houses, wear nice clothes, and own nice things. On the other hand they could be considered exactly the opposite. The Grangerfords and the Shepherdsons are soul enemies and the two families have been feuding for years but instead of settling it as gentlemen they go to violence as the answer. Violence in this case does not help the situation but instead makes it worse and the two families become even angrier with each other. They were fighting one day and the next Sunda .....

.... parts of Sinbad's fantastic tales that bother me. First of all, Sinbad never set out in search of adventure. These amazing things just seemed to always happen to him. He normally set out as a merchant, carrying goods from one exotic land to another. Yet, on each of these trips, something incredible happened to him and his crew, resulting in a dead crew and a fantastic story for Sinbad the sailor. Secondly, all of Sinbad's great adventures occurred sequentially. In other words, he went immediately from one adventure to another without so much as a nap in between. This man never had a .....

.... of the stone shatters the shell and ends what is left of their society. The second symbol is Piggy's glasses in connection with the fire and the boys' eventual rescue. The specs were used to start the first fire. Without them, they have no chance of rescue. At one point in the story, Jack and Piggy began to fight and Jack hit Piggy's glasses off.

.... its happenings are largely dictated to us by Nick, because he is our eyes as well as our ears in this fictitious world. In telling us his story about the “great man,” Jay Gatsby, he goes to quite a length in establishing a credibility which is essential for the story. His reflection on his upbringing, particularly his “advantages,” as his father called them, those being his spiritual and moral values only work to build upon his credibility. For example, by saying that his upbringing provided him with the moral fibre and that consequently he is, “inclined to reserve all judgments, .....
