I'm Just That Good
“But why, after displaying so much cunning, did he invariably betray himself the moment he came up by that loud laugh?” Although many of Thoreau’s other aphorisms may be more profound, this one has definitely permeated the American character.

Action Films. Good or Bad ??
What place does violence have in the movies? Well, I believe that violence has a place in movies depending on the particular film and what the director of the film is trying to portray.
