The News

Everyday on the news is about something negative, you rarely hear of anything positive that is going on in the world, because it's all based upon negativity. Things that are going on in the world that are negative is what attracts people the most into watching the news anyways, because it subconsciously entertains them. When you hear a clip on a commercial of something bad that is on the news, your so interested in hearing about it that you wait up until 10 o'clock at night until the news comes on. The people that wait up until then, end up watching the whole entire program because they make it the last thing that comes on, so you have to watch everything. Yet, you still watch it because your afraid to turn the channel, because you think you'll miss it. After you've watched what you were waiting for, you say to yourself, wow this world is going to hell, why do I even watch the news anyways, it just brings me down with all it's negativity and how human beings have sunk so low in doing these horrendous things to eachother, in our society.

A World Of Ignorance

"The Lottery" showed us what humans are capable of in an influenced society. Martin Luther King was killed because he was advocating for black rights. This caused fear in a mostly white society because they were afraid of change, and what their world would be like if blacks had more rights. In that matter they decided to take out the leader of this rights activist group because blacks were considered to be a lower life form in American society.

"The Perils of Indifference" relates to "The Lottery" in the fact that they are showing the brutality that humans put upon people in our world, and how cruel humans can be with our capability to do anything. The Holocaust, Rwandan Genocide, and the crucifixion of Jesus Christ are only the few examples of how evil people can be in our society , that they would even think of going to these extremes to try and prove that they have power. They thrive on the satisfaction of knowing that they are "almighty" and can do this to innocent people because they are trying to make themselves feel better as a society.

illvechio's sandwich ("Jordan's Sandwich") Review

This sandwich is a piece of art, a euphorically mouth watering experience. Everything in it is amazing, and makes it worth the hour wait in line. The four meat sandwich, including salty panchetta and black forest ham, combined with a tangy sweet mustard, creamy mayo, and balsamic vinegar, is a meal fit for the gods. With rich smoked Gouda, tomatoes, lettuce, artichoke hearts, lightly oiled Mediterranean sun dried tomatoes, and eggplant roasted golden brown, it comes together to make the most extravagant taste that has every come to your taste buds. All in a delicious, crunchy yet chewy kaiser bun.

Top 3 Dirtbikes

My top 3 favorite dirt bikes are:

The 2007 Honda crf 150r, because it's 150cc with a unicam 4 valve engine, which makes it fast and has lots of torque, to make you pull out the hole. It also has fully adjustable show suspension. And is really easy to get started. Once you get going, you never want to get off. It's good for someone who is coming off of an 85 because as racers get bigger they need a bigger bike but the 150 is not as big as the 125 and is hard to outgrow and you can get it in a big wheel or a small wheel, depending on how tall you are. You can have it for a long time, and is at a reasonable price of $ 4,299.

2007 Kawasaki Kx 250f, with a four stroke engine 5 speed transmission with thicker gears for improved shifting. Stiffer clutch springs to give it more feel at the lever. It accelerates so consistently, is very light, really fast, and has tons of power. It's one of the bikes that James "Bubba" Stewart got the holeshot on in January of 2007 in Anahiem, he also took the victory with the fastest lap of the race, on lap four when the Kawasaki man put in a 56.40, at $5999

2008 Honda crf 450r, with a liquid cooled, single-cylinder, unicam 4 stroke engine. With the new Honda progressive steering damper (HPSD), which make the 450 have more aggressive steering for quicker turning, and is awesome over rough sections, and long stretches of whoops. It's new look is sharper than ever, and comes in black or red, at a price of $7,199
