Why do you think Zinn selected the title A People's History of the United States as opposed to something like The History of the United States?


I think because the United States was founded by our people; and so on, our history began.


I need your opinions though. Thanks ;)

honest opinions and criticizes welcomed...

"A Love Lost" by MuckersCluckers

awakened visitor of a dream
uninvited, unwelcomed, emotional scream
brought naught but prospects of the past
cherished enchantments that could not last

with a gamble she might embrace the same
the desire for a rekindled flame
a foolish axiom was proclaimed
unrestrained adornment without shame

a countenance across her face
fear, dread, complete distaste
her pronouncements came in rapid succession
kind, thoughtful, hate-filled suppressions

and stricken by another fall
an icy cavity would cease to thaw
as a fool's paradise became a mighty maw
of hate, of love, and nothing at all

and when polite words injure more than blows
when you can kill someone’s soul and not even know
these are all the dire costs
of a love lost

Ok, So I dont live in California where its so easy to go from audition to audition. I'm with an agency, but have heard High school Musical 3 auditions are on YouTube? Any truth to that?

Do producers actually look on YouTube to find some actress's for their movies?

Thanks!

Is the admission of the impossibility of prevailing against a greater movement of people or other phenomena actually wisdom, a way to adapt to changing circumstance against which one may be powerless? What is your philosophy vis-'a-vis this idiom or saying? How is this not a proverb? Is it a lie?

Wouldn't it be better to just leave out the lines so that it will look original rather than an attempt to copy the original photo image?
