Reading 10/14/2010

Throughout the reading about the editing I have realized that writing an essay takes a lot more revision than I once thought. For example reading what the people have to say about finding the focus, the true heart of the essay made me think about the next time I write the paper. I also did not really think about how much it does truely help to have someone revise and peer edit your paper for you. In Conclusion, revisions in a paper are definitly the most important parts of the paper and it truely will help you in the long run if your follow these simple steps!

Post 10/8/2010

In the reading, "A Twisted World" by James McMorrowJr it shows a part of life that we often take for granted. I believe that reading about how celebrities would control the United States of America would show a point in American history where no person would ever want to go. Even though many people criticize our political leaders now Mcmorrow states, " Looking at what the nation would look like if celebrities ran it, it should be clear that the people we have put in office are the ones best suited there. " I also feel this way because the people have gone to school and educated themselves in government have many long years of studying and learning the information. If we decided to put somebody in that position solely on the fact that they are a name we hear multiple times a day our country would be very different.
