According to Joe Namath “When you have confidence, you can have fun, when you have fun, you can do amazing things.” This quote by Joe Namath relates so much to me and what happened in Joel marsh.

In "Fish Story" by Rick Bass, the element that I think that is an effective aspect of the story is the point of view element. The story is written from the first person point of view. The author, Rick Bass skillfully describes a fishing expedition in Texas in the 1960s when he was ten years old. Bass has a vivid imagination to describe the process of this story with such detail. One of his father's customers caught an eighty-six-pound catfish and since he was already in debt to Bass' father and…

upper body. The stingray was now headed swiftly towards our boat, our fishing guide started to put his brown gloves on to grab the fish without being stung by its long tail.

This example of a “Code Hero” characteristic, which was found on page 52, is my personal favorite. The…

Me and my grandpa were on our way to go fishing. On our way there we noticed the big dark gray clouds that were above us. We didn’t pay any attention to the because the weather man didn’t call for any rain. Finally we got to the dock where we could put the boat in, once we put the boat in we sailed off into the gulf of mexico until we found a good spot to fish. We stopped the boat and I could smell the pungent smell of the salt water, I grabbed my fishing pole and put some bait on it and casted…

While the goal of the goldfish lab was to teach the subject how to jump, this objective was unachieved, resulting in the inability to have our fish learn the trick. This outcome was most likely do to the minimal capacity in the brain of the goldfish, making it hard for the animal to remember how to perform the skill being taught. The fish only has a memory that lasts 3 seconds; however, the task took longer than 3 seconds to complete, resulting in the incapability of performing the jump. Also,…
