Tour. On July 18th it was a sweltering 96° F with a dramatic heat index making it feel as if it was over 107° F. It had been raining on and off all day so it was very sticky and humid. It seemed as if we were slowly trudging through a pot of boiling water when were were attempting to get down to our seats. Everybody’s hair was frizzed out at least 5 inches. However, my friends and I weren’t even slightly concerned about the night to come because we were about to have…
ineffectiveness of having preference-base ethics is the fact that individuals and organizations use it to their advantage, meaning they only look at one side. For instance, the PETA organization say the lobsters can feel pain and that’s why when in the boiling pot they scratch the sides because they know their being boiled alive while lobster lovers will say lobsters have behaviors which is why when they scratch the kettle its involuntary reflexes and do not feel pain the same way we do.…

Wallace highlights the moment when you put the lobster in the boiling water and you can hear their claws rattling and clanking as the lobster tries to push off (Wallace 69). Again, another effective use of the pathos…
For the last several years, my family has been coming to my house for Thanksgiving dinner. For a long time, my parents would host, but something changed a couple of years ago, and now everyone prefers my meal over anything else. What changed? I started frying my turkeys, that’s what. For many households, the idea of frying a turkey for the holiday seems a bit tacky, but I assure you that it’s the best way to go. Turkey is usually so dry and bland if you cook it in the oven, but not so with…

up sticks, rocks, vines, and anything we could and went back to the cabin. Our cabin was two to three stories tall, it was massive but big enough to house all of us. We made catapults and opened the windows and put the rocks in the catapult's with boiling water as hot as we could get the water the better.
