The farmer is depicted as the character you think of when you think of the word “farmer.” Red flannel, jean overalls, wedding ring visible, and I bet if the head was included in this picture it would have a straw hat on top. I think it’s interesting that the text included in this poster emphasises “trusted farmers,” while they don’t even show this farmers face or use a real farmer on a real farm. It’s…

    together, is represented by a yellow car to show that money was the real problem in their being together. The color green―a less common, yet equally important symbol found in The Great Gatsby. Like the main theme of the novel, a green hue can represent the idea of the American dream and reaching seemingly unattainable goals.

    “Here you go Clover” I stare at Jeff the zoo keeper, while he drops a gold coin into my tank. When he walks away, I slowly slide down from my perch that was up on top of the fake little rainbow, that they had given me for my tank. I didn’t like the rainbow that much, but I guess it will have to do. In my opinion the rainbows back home were the best. Colors mixed perfectly in the golden rays of the sunlight. The rainbow in my tank was the complete opposite. It had a glare from my warm yellow tank…

    • 3 Pages

    Examining Dak Prescott and the Cowboys current state at backup There’s nothing to hide behind the curtain of the Cowboys’ roster when delving into the strengths and areas of concern. If not ravaged with injuries like it was last season, an offensive unit that’s armored with a plethora of talent and a run-first philosophy to clout opposing defenses with a punishing ground game could get head coach Jason Garrett’s squad back to contention. Knock on wood, there hasn’t been any major injuries…
