Basset and the Shar-Pei. That’s why it’s not recommended for first-time owners. The Ba-Shar loves to hang around you, cuddle with you and be part of your life. He doesn’t like it when you leave him alone for long periods of time. And he will start to howl when he is unhappy and destroy things. But he will rarely bark and disturb your sleep. These dogs are active animals, and they require a moderate amount of exercise. But as much as your mini Walrus loves walking around the neighborhood, he…

CHAPTER NINE The Invasion of the Ugly Ogres We felt our way along like three blind mice through the morning mist until at last we emerged from the fog and found ourselves encircled by harsh wind, gritty dust, and weeds. Which felt like tiny needles against my skin and caused my lips to crack as we wandered in silence. Suddenly the wind petered out and the weeds erupted in high-pitched shrieks.

And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you”(goodreads). This quote shows how people turn into the exact thing that they are fighting if the do it long enough and hard enough.This is seen in Grendel when Hrothgar and his men keep attacking Grendel and are acting like the…

When a new baby is placed in a parent’s arms, a pure, enduring love is born. Unconditional love and adoration for the child becomes cemented in the hearts of his parents. This experience grants parents emotional sustenance to cling to when the innocent bundle becomes a toddler and later transforms into a teen. At first glance, toddlers and teens appear to be worlds apart. Upon closer examination, toddlers and teens possess striking similarities and capabilities. As a mother of five boys, my mind…

of Polyphemus, cyclops and son of Poseidon. “The cyclops bellowed and the rock roared round him, and we fell back in fear.

Zeus was against Odysseus because he had offended the gods by taking credit for the gods did. Walt Disney had a number of people to help him once he got going with the films.…

For centuries, tales, myths, legends, and elaborate stories have existed about the cryptid Bigfoot. The cloudy and question-filled nature of Bigfoot is intriguing to most of the world. Doubters simply play off this species existence by arguing that it is a misidentified large animal or question why there has been no evidence…

There are various types of devils described in Milton’s Paradise Lost. Left to their own devices, after Satan embarks on his journey to find God’s new “creation”, the devils form cliques and divide themselves up by interests. One group of Milton’s devils heads Mammon’s advice and seek to improve hell, a group of “false” philosophers ponder their circumstances, another group heads off to explore every corner of hell, and the “more mild” (2. 546) devils decide to seclude themselves from the…
