In tradional comic tales, the country bumpkin is usually outwitted by the sophisticated Yankee. How is Mark Twain's reversal of this tradion in "The Dandy Frightening the Squatter" supported by his defintion of realism in "Cooper's Literary Offenses"?
This is a good question for anyone who likes this Ameraican author.

Hey guys I am really down and out, I can't find a job that ever works for me. I just got fired from my job tonight at as a late night grocery stocker which was terribly fast paced anyway and I wanted to quit so bad. I've been through a lot of jobs but I can't seem to find the one that works for me. I've been a telemarketer (too much stress and preassure to sell), worked in factories and grocery stores (too fast paced), done data entry typing (which was good but I'm moving to Toronto soon and apparently you need to know keystroke 1-10 which i don't), fast food and nursing home food prep (hated both and moved on) and a few non-sales positions which were nice, I would call buisnesses and ask if they used credit cards then asked if they take american experss and hang up, easy. I liked that position a lot. Do you guys have any suggestions on what I should take up that would fit into a person like me. I don' have a liscesnce, want to be alone, and don't care if the job is repedaive/but slow!

After what we have seen of Bush, you actually think McCain is going to do better after he was voted out against Bush. Where do this people get their logic?

Women can potray / play a role of super- heroes as well as Man. The only time you get to see them play big roles is in movies like Elektra, Kill Bill, Catwoman. I mean one that a woman can play a Super- Woman.

After all everyone knows that we are the greatest Super- Wives, Super- Mom and Super- Bosses!

I had a best friend, untill about 9mnths ago.. then she really pissed me off heaps (actually she had been for years, but I finally snapped) , so I stopped talking to her..and whenever I see her everything about her angers me to the point where i feel like punching her.. She is just a load mouth inconsiderate cow, that talks over everyone and interupts all conversations if she isn't involved (that is just the start of why I can't stand her) she stopped hanging out for a bit.. and I admit I b*tched about her alot.. now she has started hanging out in my circle of friends of again I have been ignoring her as I am not 2 faced and do not want to pretend to be nice to her when I have been B*tching.. I know a few people find this hard that I am Ignoring her completely but really I think that is probably the best thing for me to do, I fear if I talk to her I will punch her or worse, But I am in no way going to stay home and not go somewhere just because she will be there.. what do you think??

My husband hinted about letting(ha, letting) me get another and I have always wanted one on my back above my bottom. Maybe one of those butterflies or scroll designs. Also I was tossing around he idea of a fine chain around my waist or flowery vine(small).
