Hurricane Imma Satire

Improved Essays
The Fall television premiere season isn’t in full swing yet, but that might be a good thing. On Friday night the TV viewers of the world might have the tube on, but it’s not because of the new programing. The big story right now is the weather.

Hurricane Irma is slated to hit the USA with a serious impact. Fifty years ago when a hurricane hit America there wasn’t much warning for the public. The weather technology was developing and the ways to get out the word were limited. Today, with Hurricane Irma slated to hit the Florida coast soon, people are turning on the TV to get information. Programs are offering up to the minute details and it doesn’t matter where you are watching from: in your living room, on your phone or at work.

Talking about TV and weather, I’d be remiss if

Which leaves the rest of us watching the hurricanes and screaming at the TV for Hurricane Irma to avoid any further landfall.

Celebrity Big Brother USA: Who doesn’t have a wishlist?

If you love Big Brother then the announcement of Celebrity Big Brother had you squealing for joy (yeah, we heard you from Hollywood). While I’m happy to see celebs in the house too, I admit I am the last person on earth who has a wishlist. Yeah, I admit it. I will not be writing a list of stars I’d like to see as houseguests.

Why? As a huge fan of Dancing With the Stars (religiously following since the beginning) I made a rookie mistake that pierced my heart. I have never recovered. I took to writing a wishlist of DWTS celebrities that would be perfect for the show. I did this for 10 seasons straight. I never got ONE celebrity right. Not even close. Disappointment loomed. Looking back only a few of the celebrities did make it to the ballroom, but I really don’t know why I thought David Hasselhoff was such a good

    For hurricane Irma, I had to evacuate Cape Canaveral and go to my father's house in Ocala. I am very thankful I did because a tornado swept pass on the street across from mine, and many of my neighbors lost their roofs completely. My house had roof damage in the room I use as my art studio. There were some leaks which messed up some artworks in progress. I am thankful though that it is all the damage and not anything more because I know a lot of people went through a lot worse.…

    Right from the start, our two essays approach their own topics in their own unique ways, using their own unique terminologies, and describing their individual weather event in drastically different tones. The first essay, What They Don’t Tell You About Hurricanes, starts off by declaring the uncertainty of a hurricane. The essay elaborates on the aftermath of a previous maelstrom that maliciously tore through the coast, initiating deadly lightning fires and horrendous floods. The monotonous way one prepares for such a storm is described almost in a detached, robotic way as if the ones preparing do not want to show any emotion because they know that if they do, all that will emerge is fear. Fear of the unknown, fear of the known, and an incredible…

The America is a land of opportunity and it really shows compared to all the countries that have a lot corruption and very little freedom. Questioning our government is a huge thing that is going on and how our government is wrong, so is our America really a country of opportunity or is it disguised as one?

    In these three passages; "Florida Waters Treasure Hunters" by Scott L. Key; "Weather Reconnaissance" by Harriet Jane Caldwell; and "Search For Ancient Civilization" by Juan De Los Santos, they all share a similarity. They share similarities of finding hidden treaure, also where and when storms are going to hit and ancient civilizations. But they also have differences like what tehnology they use to find those things. I think that in the passage "Search for Ancient Civilization" they used the best advanced technology to find their objects. Their device that they use is very much like a lawn mower called the GPR.…

    One ominous morning of 2008 I woke up to a saddened atmosphere. I look around at my parents, who are hardcore republicans, and asked them what was wrong. They said that they had lost the election. My eight year old self replied that they never won because they never ran, and of course they explained that their party lost the run for presidency. For the years to come every time I would look at the news and see a little “R” next to a person name I would know that they are the “good guys”.…

    Last week Meteorologists predicted the category three Hurricane, Joaquin, to make landfall hitting the Carolina’s. Gratefully it never made landfall, but unfortunately the Carolina’s received trillions of gallons of rain from the hurricane. Florence County flooded very badly; streets resembled Miniature Rivers, golf-courses looked like The Rapids, bridges were completely washed out, homes completely flooded, people were being evacuated, etc. Last Thursday night the rain started, it was unlike a regular thunder-storm that we usually experience in South Carolina. The rain was heavier than normal and it felt like the rain was all coming down at one time, the wind was abnormally stronger, and it stayed constant throughout the night.…
