In the classroom the shades were drawn. It was Saturday and there were no classes. Borden was looking at the pictures the drone had taken of the gorge. Most of them were too cloudy to see anything‚ but the color pervaded in various hues on the newly widened and deepened cavern that once was a normal gorge with trees and brush and birds. None of that remained. He was getting disenchanted with the images when the last few revealed activity at the seemingly fathomless bottom. There were figures that

I rose awake out of a deep period of unconsciousness. Rising to my feet‚ my inanimate body collapsed due to the burdensome shackles bound to my ankles and wrists. The deafening sound of applause and caterwaul superior to my head became louder as my eyes came to.

Seasons of flourish waves In the sizzling summer the long beach waves appear inviting. Smooth sand firstly greets us with their wild sense of heat. As near the view and sound of waves rumbling along the sea starts our excitement. The weather is perfect. Some people dive into the chill relaxing water like a family of dolphins‚ as others sunbath along us being like a group of lazy walruses resting. The atmosphere is comforting. Out beyond the heavy waves. I can see the three mystery islands that

I haven’t seen many Scorsese films‚ which I am ashamed of. Nor have I been able to finish a Lynch film. I have the gall to call myself a film buff‚ and I haven’t many of these so-called masters. But this review isn’t about David Lynch‚ it’s about fast-talking film entrepreneur Martin Scorsese. And there’s been Taxi Driver‚ The Departed‚ Casino and now Shutter Island that I’ve seen. One thing I have been able to pick up from his movies‚ is that his subject matter tends to be either disconnected people

CHAPTER TEN Invasion of the Ugly Ogres We felt our way along like three blind mice through the morning fog. Until at last we left the cold‚ damp‚ mist behind and emerged into a backdrop of wind and grit. I was about to suggest we wait until tomorrow before crossing the kingdom when a set of powerful gray hands clamped around my ankle. “Back off‚ ugly.” I drew my sword. “Ah‚ the little brat‚ wants to play at being a bad boy?” the monster said in scorn. “Well‚ we’re tired of playing‚ kid.

“What time did you say it was?” I asked. “Twenty past two‚” he said. (380) -- (Alternate ending) -- “Will it all be over now?” I asked. “What do you mean‚ over?” “Well‚ are we going to finally live the life we desired all this time?” He did not answer. I think it may be too early to ask him this question. He’s been to hell and back. I can’t imagine the way he feels. The same three words have constantly been echoing in my head: “Maxim killed Rebecca”. Over and over and over. It just never stops.
