Watching “Bigfoot Videos”, during my lunch hours, rekindled curiosity concerning the Bigfoot. Researching the subject, I found several accounts that claimed the Bigfoot would sometimes make what is known as a “whoop call.” Visiting Bigfoot research websites that contained alleged recordings of the “whoop call”, I said to myself, “next time I go out in the woods, I might try to imitate this call to see what might occur.” I did not think I would ever receive a response, but what the heck, it never…

When I had the opportunity for a vacation, I immediately arranged a fishing trip. I was so excited to visit Devils Lake to satisfy my search for some Panfish, smallmouth, trout, perch, Northern pike, walleye and many other large reef dwelling creatures, but I did not know that I am in for an unusual experience, that inside water like Devils Lake anything is possible. The fishing was excellent, I must say, in addition to good weather condition during my visit. I really enjoyed dropping jigs into…

The coat of a white tiger is not pure white. There are many things about white tigers people didn't know about. Such as, white tiger being bred differently. They are bred through inbreeding which means mom to son, father to daughter, or brother to sister generation after generation. A white tiger is born with defects because the same gene that produces the white coat causes the optical nerve to be wired on the wrong side of the brain.

After reading the texts, “To what extent did the Cold War shape the American domestic life of the 1950s?”, and “Monsters Are Due on Maple Street”, written by Rod Serling. I discovered that Rod Serling never specifically cites the Cold War in his teleplay “Monsters”. Yet Mr. Serling portrayed throughout the story to illustrate a picture of paranoia, distrust, and fear that created an atmosphere of the United States during the Cold War.

In King’s “Sorry, Right Number”, he uses verbal irony through the stage…

a white women in Mississippi the year before”(5). Serling was getting tired of being told that his stories were not ok to be aired on the television, and he felt that people had the right to know what went on in the world. This allowed him to get the idea to do more science fiction which allowed him to share his stories, but the message weren't the most obvious when you tired to figure out the moral or idea that was trying to be told. Rod Serling wrote science fiction and had his own tv show…
