In fact, she once spent a day in a wheelchair in Dublin, one of the most unfriendly wheelchair cities in the world. She once said, “people with disabilities have abilities too” (Mcaleese).

Introduction: Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. was published in 1961 and this sotry is a normal case of the author’s capability to blend science fiction and satire.

Surface Warfare Officers (SWO) are known as the backbone of the Navy. For years I have desired to obtain this position and have done extensive research concerning the attributes and requirements. Because I believe the Navy begins in the heart as well as the head, I know that becoming a part of the Navy would be life changing. Commissioning as a SWO would allow me to make a meaningful difference, as well as gain unparalleled leadership experience.
In the poem of “Touchscreen,” by Marshall Davis Jones, he is explaining how our feelings towards technology are crucial and where we do not want to live in a world without internet or media. He describes how he lives in a society where everyone has limited interaction with each other and that he witnesses doing it also. He explains his frustration how we spend so much time establishing profiles so other people can recognize you. In the beginning of the poem, it introduces you to his world where it is all digital and in the end, it shows you that the speaker is angry about technology and how he wishes that they would design it more advanced enough to make them all humans again.

Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting myself as Paul Revere, born the January 1rst, 1735 in Boston Massachusetts in what you’d call British America. Some of you may know me very well, but I’m a silversmith who took part in the Boston Tea Party and famously alerted the Lexington Minutemen about the approach of the British in 1775. People have made up stories about me being captured or making it to Concord, and the truth is that I never made it! But I’d like to say I’m proud to be an ardent colonist. I’m son of Apollos Rivoire, a French immigrant who came to America on his own at the age of 13, and Deborah Hichborn, a Boston native and the daughter of an artisan family and brother to seven siblings. By all accounts, as a young serious and committed
George Gearson was not brought up to love war or admire feats of valor that occurred within it. He was highly skeptical of its true purpose and the motives behind it, and for the most part saw it as a bloody joke.

He was a timid lad according to his mother, but once he resolved to do a thing, he would do it.
