Lobster

checks herself from saying she eats lobster at dinner time, the Mock Turtle asks her to describe how she knows what the lobsters are like. Alice responds thoughtfully, ‘“I believe so,’ Alice replied thoughtfully. ‘They have their tails in their mouths--and they’re all covered in breadcrumbs’” (79). The Mock Turtle responds, stating that she is wrong about the breadcrumbs, but he does not suggest that he understood that Alice was alluding to the fact that lobsters are food in the real world.…

“Twenty of us were there, crowded into that little room, and though I had been to such talks before, I was enchanted.” Bruce Ballenger writes a very well rounded passage about the owner of Mount Desert Oceanarium whose name is David Mills. Ballenger shares with the reader how Mills began the museum of marine life and how he spreads his knowledge to others. The writer uses a specific technique in the essay to pass along his ideas to the reader by adding his own self into the essay. This adds to…

The Fighter´s Tale As the pilgrims stopped at Red Lobster on 281 for an appetizer, the adventurer decided to tell a story. He was determined to win the prize for the best story. The year was 2080, man had already colonized Mars and made it into a second Earth. It was very futuristic it looked like it was straight out of “Star Wars.” Most people acted like one, but there was some people who had different ideas. That's where our story begins. Nick had somewhat of a significance in the…

Shipping Out and Into the Heart of Darkness I was relieved when I found out in Tom Scocca’s interview with David Foster Wallace that Harper’s magazine had the writer cut in half what was a 110-page article. I enjoyed reading the magazine’s published version, but was also more than ready for the cruise and the article to end when it did. I think I was possibly feeling a little of what Wallace was feeling, which is a credit to his descriptive and precise prose. “Shipping Out: On the (nearly…

For instance, the lobster paper is much lengthier than the whale shark paper. The whale shark paper also looks more like an article than the lobster paper does. The lobster paper is clearly broken up into different sections, including the abstract, introduction, materials and methods, results, discussion, and conclusions. However, the whale shark…

compassion and when people feel happy for the entertainment, they also do not care about the moral compassion. People in the past eat lobsters for survival reasons so they need to find something to eat but nowadays people do not need to eat certain stuff to survive since they are presented with much choices besides lobsters. People need to realize that if we only eat lobsters for selfish gustatory pleasure and we are totally cruel. In the essay, David Foster Wallace states that “As far as I can…

a “medieval torture-fest.” Within the same page of the article, Wallace calls exactly what he is doing himself “selfishly convenient.” I have a hard time understanding why he went to such great lengths bashing the Maine Lobster Festival and everyone at home who tortures lobsters for the sake of a pleasurable meal when he in turn is doing the equivalent. Whether or not he physically kills or witnesses the killing of the animal he’s consuming, doesn’t necessarily mean it had lived a full…

therefore, coastal people quickly found the resource distasteful (Woodworth, 2004, p. 182). In many areas lobsters were considered so undesirable that they were often fed to prisoners and indentured servants so that “commercially valued” products could be conserved (Woodworth, 2004, p.170). The urbanization of New England in the 1800’s dramatically influenced the product’s value, prompting lobster stocks in New York and New London waters to be quickly exhausted (Woodworth, 2004, p. 175).…
