Good Food Review
One of my favorite places to go eat breakfast is the Original Pancake House on 10437 S Western. I go there at least a couple of times a month. I usually go after church on Sunday morning and it is the best. Thier specialty is the apple pancake and that is my favorite thing on the menu. It is pretty big, it is oven baked and has apples and cinnamon glaze on top. I also order other things on the menu, for example the eggs or the patriotic pancakes, and they always taste good. So it really doesn't matter what you order because everything is good. It isn't really that big of a place so there is almost always a long wait. That is the only thing that I really don't like about it, but the food is well worth the wait. There hasn't been one time I went and wasn't satisfied with the food. The service is usually good as well. The waiters are nice and always around when you need them. Overall it is a great place and I would recommend it to anyone and give it five out five stars.
Defend the Poet
Charles Bukowski's Dinosauria, We poem was very interesting. It felt like he wrote the peom yesterday, even though he died in 1994, because of how how current everthing he said sounded. Reading this peom really got me thinking about what the future will hold and maybe that was his sole purpose in writing the poem at all. If everyone that read it tried to change that could help save the world. He compared us to Dinosaurs and that we are going to be extict just like them. I'm not sure if I agree with his prediction at the end of the world ending though. He just sounded very mad at the world and like he was going through something. I don't believe that the world will ever get so bad that men will have to start eating other men. Still that doesn't mean that Bukowski's prediction isn't correct because it could happen.

King Still King?
Martin Luther King Jr. left a big imprint on this world in the little time that he was on this earth. I believe that he was one of the best leaders this world, not only this country, has ever seen. It showed in the way he was able to lead several marches and influence a group of people that we shall overcome. He opened a lot of doors for people of color in this country as well. I don't think that Obama would be the president today if it wasn't for King. Another thing I admire about him is that he always did things non-violently. Other people would always try to phyically harm him and through all of that he never resorted to violence as an answer. I think that if he was still living then things in this country would be better. He really wanted to see his dream come true and it still hasn't. There is still a lot of racism in this country and a lot of people still judge others by the color of their skin. I think we still have to continue working toward fulfilling his dream and if we do the country will become a better place. I hope a lot of people will think about that during this holiday. I think that everybody should take at least five minutes to reflect on what he did for us and what he stood for.

I'm A Shoe
If I was going to be a shoe, I would be an athletic shoe. Athletic shoes are made to be light, hold up under a lot of activity, and also look good. More specifically I would want to be the Jordan 23s. I say that because it was the last number in the series and I think the most anticipated. When it came out everybody loved them and wanted some. The design was very different and the stiching on the sides of them were very intracate. I would want to be that shoe because I feel that I am different from everybody else just like the shoes were different. Also they were loved by a lot of people. I feel that I have a lot of friends and everybody loves me and that is also how I am like the shoes. So I think that would be the shoe that I would be if I was a shoe.
