Graveyard Ghost

In Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath, Muley Graves, a man from McAlester has had his property repossessed by the bank. As a result, Muley is faced with two options: go with his family to California in an attempt to start a new life, or stay in his state, which has become desolute due to over-farming. When Muley decides to stay, his family leaves without him. Muley roams the city day after day, attempting to continue living. One day he meets with his nephew, Tom Joad, and shares his food with Tom. Tom offers to take Muley with him and his family to California; Muley declines again saying, "It's too late for me now. This might be a dead country, but this here's my country. I can't leave it."

The Return

Hello Bloggers out there. After many years time, I have somehow ended up using my blog again (which I had hoped I wouldn't). Of course, one has to make sacrifices to get good grades in high school. -_-

Hooray 4 Obama

It's finally happened. The American Dream's come true. Bush is finally out of the White House and Obama's moving in. For those of you who wanted Obama, you're getting him. The New Year has come to stay and so has Obama. Prepare for changes Americans. If you missed the inauguration of Obama, then don't sweat it. You'll be able to see his speech online and hear his great speech! Our troops will arrive home sooner than they normally would if McCain were President. Too bad, McCain. Hooray 4 Obama. Lead us to a brighter future, Mr.President and correct the mistakes of Bush!
