Painful as it may be, such experiences brings home the finality of death. Something deep within us demands a confrontation with death. A last look assures us that the person we loved is, indeed, gone forever.” (108) Cable finishes his essay by asking, Tim if his job ever depressed him. Tim in reply says, “No it doesn’t, and I do what I can for people and take satisfaction in enabling relatives to see their loved ones as they were in real life.” (108) After reading this essay I feel as though sometimes we don’t understand death so therefore we do not talk much about it.

Julie Powell, the author of her own memoir, was a distraught secretary working at a bureaucratic organization led primarily by Republicans in order to build a memorial to the terrorist attack on September 11th, 2001. To further this misery, she was told that she may be unable to have children in the future.

I am glad that she came.

In Serial episode one by journalist Sarah Koenig, neglects to use more of the valuable information contained in Asia McLean’s letters because she was biased about what would help her narrative, but these letters foreshadowed what would happen later on. The letters written by Asia McLean could’ve been taken more seriously by both the state and Koenig. Although she understands the letters importance and tries to get in contact with Asia, she still leaves out many of the valuable things that Asia was saying in the letters. Asia states, “I’m trying to reach your lawyer to schedule a possible meeting with the three of us.”

This article was written by Amy Davidson and she speaks of valid points that soldiers as well as veterans are asking. This article talks of the e-mail scandal and Clinton’s involvement which was one of the central questions asked in all of the debates. Trump could not let this go, and a lot of soldiers could not let it go either. A lot of the American citizens do not trust Clinton when it comes to classified information due to her actions.
