In honor of my 100th post Matt has decided to reopen the account registration for everyone.

Also if you check drudgereport you will see a link to a story that we broke a few days ago. You heard it here first.

In case anyone was wondering what the weather folks would do when they reached the end of the alphabet the latest tropical storm is named "alpha."

We've broken several stories here before drudgereport. He probably checks out the 409 to see what's up then goes with it. Watch for drudge to start reporting HL2 mod updates.

If I didn't have 3 more things to do tonight I'd write a Peter Nguyen inspired paper for you and hide my car.

I remember the book sucked big time. It was like a soap opera had won a pulitzer. It blew my mind. Basically it was pretty forgetable. Go with that theme for your paper Forgetable. That way you can expound on not knowing anything.

Otherwise Wikipedia mothafucka! Do You Use It?!.

It's none of my business but are you trying to score a high school lit teacher or a high school lit student?
or both?

Edit: From the wikipedia article: "Largely forgotten during the Great Depression and World War II..." Told you. So in conjunction with what Matt says people had more important things to worry about; they forgot about this book. See this is a paper right here.

If you've got 3 days (and you want it bad enough) you could probably read the book in a day and write the paper for the next two :) It's not all that long as I recall. In addition to Wikipedia I highly suggest SparkNotes. Meanwhile lemme give you some highlights:

  • Rich folk with nothing better to do than have some drama
  • There's some kind of love parallelogram.
  • A chick gets her boob half-ripped off by a car and then she dies.
  • gatsby dies. he gets shot by the husband of the boob-rip chick.
  • symbolism symbolism symbolism. out the wazoo. weather (specifically temperature) and colors come to mind.
