What do you think of this poem? I had to re-write a little. It almost got a perfect score before the re-write. Tell me what you think?
Unfinished Meal
A dirty kitchen filled with pots and pans
An unfinished meal of bratwurst and sauerkraut
A dead candle blown out by screams
Barry White softly in the background
Sweat dripping off folds of flab
A twisted heap lying together
The carpeted floor holds the secret
The aftermath glistening nearby
The angels are done singing
The birds lie still
In the original, the first 3 lines were;
A dirty kitchen
An unfinished meal
A dead candle
The professor wanted more detail in those lines. Does it work better now ? Could I have gotten a perfect 50 with the re-write instead of a 48 with the original?

I like to help with homework every once in awhile. Usually, just guiding them in to the right direction, but when are they going to learn to do their own work. I like to answer simple questions, but when they want someone to write their essays for them, then it gets ridiculous. They don't know what it is like in college. I am taking 3 upper level courses and they are very intense. I have a lot of reading and a lot of writing in them and I work full-time. I have to get a lot of it done on the weekends, but it will be worth it. Kids should learn to do their own homework, don't you all agree?

5 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoI know this question has been asked before...?
but I wanted to know how many of you have more than one period in history you like? I know people have asked if you have just one you like, but do you have more than one. I have read mostly about WW II, but I also have read a lot about the American Revoution, the Andean cultures before the Spaniards, the early Cold War from 1945 to the early 60's and the Civil Rights movement up to the assassination of Dr. King. Do actually have more than one time period or area of interests you like?
4 AnswersHistory1 decade agoDon't you hate this...?
when you have given a good answer and you researched it and gave all the websites you used for your answer, then somebody comes in, steals part of your answer and gets Best Answer? This has definitely happened to me.

I actually had the 1811 reference long before the other person did and this other person gets Best Answer. I try to let some of this roll right off of me and ignore it, but this one was hard to ignore because of the research involved. Don't you just want to smack someone?
3 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoHave you ever....?
received the most thumbs up for an answer, but still did not get the Best Answer. I am not talking about like one vote and the Best Answer got none, I am talking about getting like 5 or 6 thumbs ups and the Best Answer not getting any. I cannot remember if this has happen to me, but I am curious.
6 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoHave you ever...?
received more thumbs downs than thumbs ups for your answer and still got the Best Answer. This has happened to me and I was happy for it, 2 thumbs up and 4 thumbs down.

What is so funny about it is that I know my answer was correct and the other person that answered did not have a good answer and he got 5 thumbs up and 1 thumbs down.

19 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoIs F-1 Racing dead in the U.S?
I live about an hour from Indianapolis and never really noticed that the Untied States Grand Prix was racing. I only knew it was happening when I watched the news fron Indy and they were talking about it. I noticed too that there were very few people in the stands, especially compared to the Indy 500 and Brickyard 400. Does F-1 have a chance in the U.S. or should they not race here?
