following text will be an answer from the letter Lucy van Pelt sent to her unconditional friend, Charlie Brown, in which she asked him advice to catch Schroeder´s attention, because all the things she has been doing for years seem not to work. In consequence, she is despairing in the face of that she will remain single for the rest of her life, thing that cannot happen to a woman during this time. Charlie´s response makes her see that she does not have to do extraordinary things to catch someone´s attention
air. I felt ashamed and ungrateful. This boy seemed to be so happy with his life and I’m over here complaining about something so little and irrelevant. He was blind and I had 20/20 vision. How can I waste my life focusing on the bad rather than the good? God did not put me on this planet to sit around and do nothing with my life but complain. I knew I needed to change the way I saw things. I need to remember that not everyone is here to make me happy. There’s always going to be that one person who
twenty-one year old Charlie Brown. His bomber had been shot by German fighters, and was struggling to stay in the sky above Germany. Half the crew was injured and his tail gunman was dead. When Brown and his co-pilot, Spencer Luke, looked at the fighter pilot, a strange thing happened. The German didn’t pull the trigger. He stared back in amazement and respect. He did not attack. What happened next was one of the most amazing acts of mercy in World War II. Charles Brown was on his first combat
After sitting down in a booth inside Moe’s Cafe, a waitress immediately comes over to take Mark’s order. The woman is tall with a brown pixie cut and chocolate colored eyes. Her smile is small, but seems genuine as she ambles over to Mark’s table. “Hi there, my name’s Blanche and I’ll be your waitress today. I haven’t seen you around before are you new to town?” “ I’ll have a coffee please. And yeah, I’m only here while my car is in the shop.” “Alright sweetie, I’ll have that right out for you
You can give someone a gun, but you can’t make them shoot. To shoot a gun all you need is a reason. The Nameless weren 't bad or good, they did what was needed to be done. They weren 't vigilantes, they were four assholes who did whatever was best for them. Sometimes they did the right thing, most of the time they didn’t, honestly, they didn’t care. They’ve killed good people and they’ve killed bad people. The four of them never thought they were going to be the most wanted in the city of Hassett
took Alice out to dinner, to shop or to see a movie. Summer break was three weeks away, and I was uncertain about where I would spend it. The one time I had reached Charlie by phone, we had only spoken briefly. “Dad! Where have you been? I have tried to reach you for the past month!” “Bells, you shouldn’t be calling,” Charlie censured. “I’m very busy at work. I’ve been assigned to an important case.” “But, Dad … I need to talk to you about something very serious …” “Not now, Isabella.” He

She was shot by a man. Lying dead in the middle of 25th Avenue with blood pouring everywhere, was Molly Longman. Molly Longman was an indigenous and the town's police chief. She was a strong, determined woman and was highly respected by everyone in the town. Molly was known for doing the right thing and for always serving justice. That's why this town loves her so much. The whole town was absolutely devastated. And the whole police station was trying to figure out who had committed this murder.
And her name is Red, She crows every morning, When she gets out of bed. Now she’s a Rooster, She likes to flog her man. Now she’s a Rooster, She’ll flog you, when she can. And whenever she catches you, Messing with some other chicks, She’ll flog you with those spurs of hers, Just for kicks. Now she’s a Rooster; And whenever she’s mad at you, You’ll hear her cluck, Cock-a-Doddle-Do. MAN SHE’S A ROOSTER. Duane Sears June 11, 2008 What does Santa get for Christmas?

“This is where you will be stationed for the next month,” the general informed me and left. I groggily looked around, taking in the trench and its high, dirt walls. As if in a daze, I went to the sleeping quarters and felt for my dirty cot in the dark. Trying to ignore the cries and shrieking of fighting men, I set down my pack. Inside was a gas mask, a rifle, a shovel, some extra clothes, a mess kit filled with cutlery, a plate, and a cup, and a few shower items. After arranging my area, I left
As I lay on the hard, gravelly ground, unable to move in a pool of my own blood, I closed my eyes. With sweat dripping down my forehead, I thought, How did this get so out of hand? I would give anything to go back to the way life was before (interior monologue). But when exactly was before? I suppose the day everything really went downhill was October 29, 1929: Black Tuesday, the day the stock market crashed and ruined millions of people’s lives.

is very hard for a woman to get as much respect as a man, especially in a profession that is male-dominant. It explains how hard it actually is for introverts to get the respect they deserve in today’s society. Later on, Cain states, “I worry that there are people who are put into positions of authority because they’re good talkers, but they don’t have good ideas. It’s so easy to confuse schmoozing ability with talent. Someone seems like a good presenter, easy to get along with, and those traits are
wanted to fly. And the people said, “Why don’t you give it a try?” The sky’s still big, and the sky’s still high, But you’re bound to get there, by and by. Just remember her words, ‘Til the day you die, “Nobody Owns the Sky!” Reeve Lindbergh dedicated her poem to the family of Bessie Coleman with admiration and respect from another flying family. “It looks like a good day for flying.” “Miss Bessie Coleman (Queen Bess), the daredevil aviator accomplished her goal in her short life.

On April 1, 1950, the sleepy town of Hot Springs, New Mexico officially changed its name to Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. Here’s how it happened. In March of 1950, and to promote the tenth anniversary of the popular radio game show, Truth or Consequences, host Ralph Edwards promised to broadcast an episode of the program from the first town in America that would rename itself after the show.
