    The movie and play productions of “The Glass Menagerie” tell very different stories. The play tells a story of a family with no father – emphasis on no father – that can’t seem to be nice or truthful to one another.

    that happily repeats an extremely vulgar sentence over and over. They drive away, and the message “Engles leren?”, which translates to “Want to learn English?”, appears on the screen. The ironic idea of a wholesome family obliviously enjoying such a crass tune, along with the afterthought of how the family would react upon finding out what the song actually means makes this commercial one of the funniest ever. 10.

    Ziolkowski chooses to run with a "blasé" approach of the tone, taking a risk. Appearing unfazed toward such a major event as 9/11 is almost like sporting a Confederate flag in a black neighborhood. Almost. It holds potential to make the author sound crass. However, Ziolkowski's tone is overpowered by the strength of action in his words, averting damnation. He starts the article off by telling about Hurricane Erin, a catalyst for the "once in a lifetime" waves produced on the east coast. It is…
