Mr. Jones couldn’t sleep. The streak of bright moonlight slashed on his blanket like a knife. He got up to close the curtains when he heard a sickening squawk downstairs. Mr. Jones is a person who is nervous around weird things. He went downstairs to have a drink of milk. He poured the milk and the rich, creamy steam barely crawled up his nostrils before he saw something crawling under the rug.

Mr. Jones hit his head on a table edge and he promptly fainted. The thing spent the whole night in the backyard.

Mr. Jones once owned a dog called Farley, but passed it had away. Now, the egg rolled through the doggie door into Mr. Jones’s house, stopping right next to Mr. Jones! Mr. Jones grabbed his umbrella and started beating the egg continuously. (Note to readers: If you want to get rid of something you don’t know, don’t make it angry, which was exactly what Mr. Jones was doing!)
After a long chase and run, the egg made Mr. Jones trip and fall. He landed in a garbage can and rolled outside. A few minutes later, the garbage truck accidentally took Mr. Jones away! The egg just roamed around Mr. Jones’s house, not knowing where it was going. At last, it bumped into a chair and the egg broke. It was not any kind of animal; for now, let’s call it a reptile.

    The Concept of Charity; “The Canterbury Tales” Throughout the “General Prologue” Chaucer presents a vast majority of characters in the mid 1400’s to represent human's instinct of dishonesty and corruption. Throughout all of Chaucer’s characters that he portrays as the twenty nine pilgrims, three in particular stand out due to their interaction with charity.

    The soft sounds of approaching footsteps outside my bedroom window intrigued me. Today, the familiar padding of cat’s paws took on a significant change I did not recognize. I knew that Scruffy, a scrawny alley-cat who eked out a meagre existence in our neighborhood, was late this day. Usually, this ageless creature made no other sounds as he neared my bedroom, but this morning he uttered several plaintive heart-rending cries and I wondered why.…
