but he still enjoyed the taste of the chicken. He says “We have all entered a race to devour the largest volume of gratification before it kills us” (58) which tells the audience that going for a commitment is pleasurable even if it kills us. At the end of the experiment Klosterman went back to visit the professionals who tested him previously and found out that his challenge was a success.

“Good luck.” The other one said. Ralph, heavy with dread, anger, and sadness, picked up his spear, turned away from the twins and toward the shelters, and started walking toward them. “Hey,” the twins said, “Thank you.” Ralph nodded, and made his way toward the shelter as the sun made its way down to the horizon. His spear clutched in his hands and his determination was higher than the mountain. The deck against him is stacked and he has a few cards left…

suggests kids should do are play with fire, own a pocket knife, throw a spear, deconstruct appliances, break DMAC, and drive a car. I agree with the idea Tulley explains throughout the Ted Talk. He gives us a better understanding of why people should allow their children play around with hazard objects. Tulley suggests that kids need to be familiar with hazard objects other than rounding every corner to eliminate every sharp end, but he advocates that children are being cut off valuable…

a pig they torture in the process of killing. When they are killing the pig they cause it the most pain they can. Roger runs around the pig “prodding with his spear whenever pig flesh appeared” (135). Wanting to kill something for survival and wanting to make it suffer for fun are two different things, and just “prodding” a pig with a spear will not do much other than hurt it. Eventually, “Roger found a lodgment for his point and began to push till he was leaning with his whole weight” (135).…

Well if I plan to survive I need to make a shelter, find water, and make a spear of some kind to find food. I find a strong stick that I thought would be good for spear making. I use the small knife from the medkit that I found and began shaping the end into a point. Once I have the end of a spear I head to find palm trees for coconuts. With my new spear I use it to knock down coconuts for some sort of drinking source. Next I get palm tree leafs to begin making my…

Other weapons used in medieval times include spears, halberds (a weapon similar to a spear but with an axe head on the end), and maces (a short handle with spikes on the end). Battle axes, though uncommon, were used as a cheaper alternative to buying a sword. By far the most common ranged weapon of the medieval times was the bow and eventually the crossbow,…

My dad always told me stories about many Native artifacts that he found in the past when he found in the past, when I was a little kid. He showed me many arrowheads, axes and poetry. Even in my grandfather's old shop he had many artifacts on the wall. There was so many artifacts I did not know what they all was. Sometimes my dad would take me places to go find artifacts. We always found many artifacts and we had a good time. Sometimes when I held the artifact I would wish that I could go back…
