DONUTS IN AUTUMN a short story It was a brisk autumn afternoon in Central Park on November 26th, 1958. People were passing by from every corner. Couples huddled close together, their souls entwining in a state of communion. But for people walking alone, without any direction, the feeling of the autumnal season was a lonely pumpkin. It was on that chilly afternoon that I bumped into Lara Peterson. She was vibrant, an orange soul. Though not exactly the most beautiful girl, she carried her own…

Report on “The Murder of William Marsh Rice” and The Spindletop Oil Gusher The purpose of this report is twofold: to discuss the novel “The Murder of William Marsh Rice,” by Paul Spellman and to discuss the Spindletop Oil Gusher, one of the significant Texas history events that serves as the backdrop for the story. The book is a fascinating combination of fiction and history. Though the main character and others are fictitious, the events that happen around them—the Great Galveston Hurricane,…

school gym I was not nervous at all for volleyball tryouts. I had been on JV for 2 years and now as a junior, it is almost a right of passage to move up to varsity. We went through the week running a mile at the beginning of the day and running many drills. On the last day, we had a private talk with the coach about our position on the team. “Pearl!” It was my turn. I walked over with confidence and sat before the coach. “Pearl, after this week you’ve shown potential and think you…

MORGANTOWN, W.Va.--As the second week of Fall Camp is underway, Dana Holgorsen met with members of the media on Tuesday afternoon and discussed the West Virginia University football teams progression. Another player out for the season is freshman cornerback Jake Long, who is going to be sidelined after shoulder surgery. “Maybe could have practiced him but we’re talking about redshirt,” Holgorsen said. “Let’s just go ahead and do it so we have you ready for next year.

It also tells how the United States and the Soviet Union…

On a recent trip to Idyllwild, where I take veterans each fall as they leave the military for college, every climactic altercation ended with the same thing: Army Vet 1 - "You know it 's true." Marine Vet 1 - "Shut the fuck up unless you have a Combat Action Ribbon." Me - "Shut the fuck up unless you have 5 combat tours." Yes, that was me... and recently. One thing you have to know is that if we accept white / black / Mexican / Asian as "races" then the military itself is a microcosm of races;…

walked into my bathroom and took a shower. I put on my nice clothes and my Jordan 7 shoes. Let me tell you a story about these shoes. These shoes were given to me by my dad on my birthday when I was 6. They were a size 11 so I had to grow a little bit more until I got to wear them. When my dad gave them to me he left for a couple of days and then it turned into weeks, months, then years. When I was 10 I asked my mom “Where’s dad?” She answered with, “He’s gone and dead. He died in a tank.” I…
