The Old Guys

We all were pretty surprised and so he explained with “Hell with it i’m getting old”.So we all went up and crossed the river; even the old guy without falling. My family all jumped and we all waited for the old man to jump. At one he jumped and we all saw what was wrong. The old guy instead of crossing his feet and arms was horizontal about to belly flop from 55 feet. He hit the water and we all heard a huge smack. My dad and our guide rushed in and helped him out of the water. He hadn’t opened his eyes since he hit and we could all see they were a little swollen and a little red. He opened them and a bunch of blood came pouring down his face. He was crying blood. We got a first aid kit and washed them off in the water and go a dry piece of cloth. His stomach and chest were very red like he had been lying in the sun all day. We got back to the van and drove to where all of our cars were parked. We all said goodbye and his…

A few ways that are possible that are more creative are: by committing crimes, blowing up things, eating all the persons food,…

typically guys are aware of the rules of moral behavior, they just seem to have trouble following them, when there are certain extenuating circumstances. For example: " Zippy, a guy dog who has been told numerous times that he is not suppose to get into the kitchen garbage or poop on the floor, but he has never understood why, so he thinks that it should not apply to him when someone just threw away a seven week old kung Pao Chicken and is home alone." Thinking since nobody is home they…

of people with empty minds thinking that being a gay is a huge sin. A few years ago I have witnessed a crucial moment when some guys acted as idiots cussing a homosexual off and I realized how tough it seems to be to who suffers. I would like to retract here the whole situation and what I learnt dealing with that moment. Because his style and way of life, everybody from the school liked to play with my friend.

People say women are apart of everything but if they truly were then we would have more words to make women feel like they actually were apart of things. Nowadays women go around calling themselves girls instead of women. One reason for this could be that they want to feel young and when they hear woman it makes them feel old. A guy in one of Kleinman’s class was in a frat that decided to open their doors to girls. There was a big question floating around whether or not to call the girls…

However, there are still some people that like to go steady and be old fashioned and romantic. Phil Grech, author of the article, “Does chivalry still exist?”, Agrees. In his article he states, “But what if chivalry hasn’t died; it has just changed?” (Does chivalry still exist?) Grech continues on giving examples of why he believe chivalry has just changed. Personally, I agree that it has changed. In my own personal relationships with guys, even just guy friends, they hold doors for me, be…

AkaashVani “Ladies and gentlemen flight M20 is delayed one hour, flight M20 is delayed one hour,” said a woman on the loudspeakers. “Oh no, Ria one more hour.” Ria is my best friend. She is tall and skinny because she works out. She is always conscious of how she looks. Any guy that sees her would fall in love with her. She is always dressed up like today she is wearing a pink sundress and has her hair straight. I, however, am wearing tights with a pink workout tank. I don’t work out, I don’t…

squirmed under the look and shifted his feet nervously.” When the text states that Curley’s arms were bent at the elbows, his hands were in fists, and he was in a slight crouch, it reminded me of what a snake looks like before it strikes. When it says that Lennie shifted nervously, it reminded of when the snake’s prey knows something is wrong before something actually happens. The word foreshadows means to warn or suggest a future event. The text suggests that Curley will try to fight…

She was pretty, a cheerleader and was dating the top hockey guy in school yet somehow we became friends, through our law course and she seemed pretty down to earth. At first I was a little skeptical of becoming her friend, because in freshmen year since she’s such a popular girl she was receiving harassing and Indecent phone calls, guys telling her that “she was going to be next”, and “that her days were numbered”, I just didn’t want to get myself involved in that type of environment. I didn’t…
