Like artist, soundtracks... something not too loud. I'm not a music expert, but something that has consistant sounds to it so it won't distract me while working on school work?

Thanks in advance

Take the Kooks, Razorlight and The kings of Leon for instance. Great tunes from guys younger than me...should youngsters have so much talent? It used to feel like the more mature musicians were the best but these young bands are making a mockery of my theory!

Had this dream last night. It was rather disturbing. Searches of the dream interpretation guides out there all talk about seeing ghosts, but not being one. Any ideas? (I spent my time in the dream trying to interact with the living world unsuccessfully).

I'm totally into history and religion, but there is something about the history of the Bible that really gets me goin'! If you have actually read the Bible then you'd see that there is a lot of truth to it. It sheds light on everything that is going on NOW, and it was written so long ago. I wanna know how you feel about the content of the Bible. Do you feel the same way I do? Why or why not?

Paper Rose

We sat, so aquainted
and talked over bad coffee.
You looked at me charmingly
and breathed out the relief of a day's end.

I mesmerised by your blue eyes
and rich smile.

You could have taken my hand.
You could have leaned in for a kiss.
But we both thought love a miss.

In your hands u folded some thin napkin
and produced a charm, a delicate vow of
"I like you".
Unfolded empty but in words everything.

I'm really frustrated that I can't find these answers:
1)the Exact date of publication of A farewell to Arms(I already know its in 1929)
2)The exciting force of the book (the event that allows the story to begin, NOT to be confused with the rising action or climax!)
3)out of curiosity, why do you think this is or isn't a good book?(I thought it was extremely boring)

Thanks in advance to anyone who helps

PS I need citations of the pages that you found this on!!(because if I didn't look at it and try to understand, that would be cheating!)
