Mojo

was an extremely friendly and attentive waiter, probably the best I have ever had and his presence was known but not over bearing. Gilberto did not just treat us like this but every customer that he was waiting on. “Asberry and me were laughing now, mama was laughing and papa was laughing too”(Baily and Bledsoe 89). Much like Around the Fire the people in the restaurant were all chatting and having a good time. I was a little doubtful to try Cuban food for the first time but I have never been a picky eater, therefore I just dove right into the food and ended up enjoying every bite. I ordered the masitas de puerco, which translates into cake of pig. The menu’s description of the dish was Tender, cubed pork marinated with Cuban spices and mojo sauce and lightly pan fried to perfection. It was also served with congris, which is Cuban rice and beans, tostones, which are fried plantains, and a salad. I was skeptical at first but I wanted to try something new. I started out slowly taking small bites of things I have had before, then finally I tried the pork and it was absolutely delicious. The dish was very interesting when it came out. Instead of being in a nice form, like that of a five star restaurant, it was all piled together. Even though it was not the best looking dish the taste was amazing. The pork was tender and delectable. The taste was not bad. In fact, it was really good. Just like in NPR’s Sweet Sour Salty Bitter … and Umami, Krulwich says, “Nothing is specifically…

Mojos As I went to Mojos I choose to sit outside on the deck for a little while. The deck had three black, steel tables on it with four chairs at each table— which probably was not a smart idea to sit on since it was absolutely hot outside. When I sat down the uttermost elegant flowers caught my eyes . The flowers were vivid and vibrant, making them stand out from everything outdoors. I lingered outside for only about ten more minutes before sweat dribbled down my face, making me feel uneasy.…

tension, shock, and horror of being attacked by a shark, standing in at times for the shark itself, who could not deliver the same emotions while its mechanical aspects slowly deteriorated in the water. Jaws has been cemented as one of the first true “ summer blockbuster” films. Though the term may differ now, in 1975 a film that was considered a blockbuster was one that was wildly successful financially in comparison to its budget. Jaws reached $7 million in its first three days, and $100…

Have you ever found the importance of an attitude before? In the short series of Growth Mindset, Mojo goes through the hardships of not believing that he is smart enough to continue school. Then his friend starts to help encourage him to not give up. Then, in the next short, Mojo's friend tells him about how mistakes are better than what he thinks. In the third short, they talk about how if you can't accomplish your challenge now, you're not bad, you just can't accomplish it yet. In the second…

In examining Mojo Jojo's intonation, closet, and the prompt interpretation of him as a black monkey, the most critical thought that rings a bell is that he is an extremely evident personification of Africa. The way that he is a primate is a reasonable representation of how blacks have been seen all through history and how society and the media attempt to thwart their impact by utilizing symbols of their risky propensities (Garis, 2012). The Powerpuff Girls delineated shaded minority gatherings…

(Ebert, 1986). The movie itself did not garner best actors and actress awards in terms of Oscars, however, as reviewed by one of the best critics in the movie industry, did produce records in terms of revenue and awards. Top Gun opened at the box office on May 16, 1986. During the opening the movie was subjected to mixed reviews. Top Gun opened in 1,531 theaters nationwide and grossed over $8,193,052 in the first weekend alone (Box office mojo, 2010). Over the lifetime of the movie total…

of this declining age of Christendom. I must confess I get really excited about those who encounter Christ in palpably transformative ways. At Wildwood United Methodist Church (hereafter referred to as Wildwood), we have joined close to 200 new members in four years. Many by profession of faith—brand new Christians, turning their lives over to Christ in dramatic ways. I can still remember the day Mojo Yates walked into the 11am worship experience with his family. Mojo is an imposing figure,…

“... a good tan and a broad soft-looking can.” Sammy sees things from a different point of view. He thinks differently than others. Sammy acts with a different mojo than others. He is a nine-teen year old kid with a nine-teen year old brain. ‘‘Here comes the sad part of the story,or at least my parents think it is sad.’’ This quote shows that he has an immature attitude about things. Although sometimes he thinks he is mature,his attitude towards things show a different side. He is a wild…

gets off the bus, he thinks of her who gives him the eye of who she might be (178-183). When the bus was leaving, Coyote’s stops and feels like he got his “mojo” back. He then realizes that “that old lady was a glammed-up—and impressed—old man” (183). This moment gives Coyote the urge to look out into this mental journey as he starts to remember whom the Indian woman might be, “What name did the ’aqi go by? Dolores? Estfana? Juanita” (184). Eventually, he decides to follow that woman, or man,…
