A Day Persuasive Speech

Take away cabs, limos and delivery trucks, take away secretaries, file cabinets, political strategies inside buildings that run-on words, and there are Sundays at the park between Jefferson and Lincoln Memorials in Washington DC. Oh God of human vibrations and charismatic dances! Thank you for this retinue of human nature in the natural light of an irresistible Seventh day morning… jogging, juggling, volleyball, basketball, freaky Frisbee, American soccer, and chess under the trees…global polyglot of languages incandescent as children’s eyes…girls running on zig-zagging long legs, chasing nothing but echoes in their mad pursuit of earth, air and light …while fathers chase crazy kites across unused baseball fields, teaching young sons to dream. In quiet places above body’s dalliance, lovers picnic on verdant green, in soft patois of Portugese, Afghani, Szechuan, Catalan and Farsi…primal sounds of an eternal not available to the imagination. On old sidewalks young minds rollerblade to boom boxes percussing with James Brown’s slide and glide, while ancient circles of young girls watch casually, carefully structuring distances between rollicking boys and lovers on the hill…Breughl’s panoply playing out its common themes where “Washington Bridge” crosses the Potomac…’Sunday morning epiphanies coming down’ on phrases that have no desire to be sentences in the study of books about

    Hi Melvin, Did you ever receive the new quotation from DGE? I’m curious what the latest pricing and lead time is. Will FCI have time to receive more adhesive by January if shelf life can’t be extended out to 4 months? I don’t know all the history, so I’m also curious to know if anyone has ever looked at a less expensive alternative?

    As a side note, clockwork orange is a vile, wicked movie, which you guys should not bother watching. It is a demonic, sicking piece of garbage. That is a warning. I do not suggest that you watch that disturbing, evil movie, at all. On a lighter note, the video that Bunnee just put up, not too long ago, was a waste of my time to watch, but she looks neat-looking in it in some ways, but the video is lame, for the most part, with the queerish-looking dude in it, which is not Dogman.

    Today I am honored to be standing here presenting the Conn Smythe trophy to my friend Duncan Keith. The Conn Smythe is awarded to the most valuable player during the Stanley Cup Playoffs. I first heard of this tremendous defensemen back in the 2009-10 season where he helped prevail the Chicago Blackhawks to their first Stanley Cup victory since 1961. It seems like Duncan never has a bad season and makes very few mistakes on the ice. The amount of time he puts into this game really shows his dedication and love for hockey.

    "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all". With my hand placed over my heart, I am brought back to elementary school reciting this verse with thirty other students in my class. The fifty-star banner hung motionless and proud in the corner of the room and as my teacher begins the verse, thirty young voices instantly chime in. This pledge had a power behind the words that I could feel yet I didn’t know why. Now I rarely hear these powerful words at school or in public, and I wonder what is happening to America; we are losing our religion, our sense of unity, and the equality for all American citizens.

  • Raymond Carver Cathedral Summary

    528 Words  | 3 Pages

    The narrator then proceeds to show Robert what a cathedral looks like by taking his hand and drawing a cathedral on “a shopping bag with onion skins in the the bottom of the bag.” (Carver 110) . Through this bricolage, the narrator closes his eyes and has an epiphany, for in this moment where his eyes are closed, hands intertwined, he truly sees, and “ ‘It’s really something,” (Carver 135). It’s the minimalistic approach that prefaces this big event that really showcases the theme. Carver’s use of colloquial language, in creation of an increasingly relatable scene allows for the reader to empathize with the narrator, allowing for a much stronger impact when the epiphany occurs and the story’s theme has been
