Jim: The most important person in Treasure Island “ I’ll give you a piece of my mind. I’ve always liked you, I have, for a lad of spirit, and the picture of my own self when I was young and handsome.” Now, Long John Silver didn’t say that for nothing. In Treasure Island, Jim was a hard worker, and his work received positive feedback from all. Jim always wanted to do his best (not to forget do what he thought was right), and with that Jim also added another key part, which was also the basis of my

Insanity in Full Effect In the 2010 movie Shutter Island, directed by Martin Scorsese, we were introduced to a character named Edward “Teddy” Daniels. Teddy Daniels was a U.S. Marshall who was brought to a psychiatric facility to investigate a missing patient, so we think.

His wife was supposedly killed in a fire started by a man named Andrew Laeddis. As the

Ever thought, that the Big Island and Oahu were the exactly the same. Well you’re wrong. The Big Island is the youngest so it is still growing but the Oahu is older. The Big Island doesn’t look as modern as Oahu (AKA the Gathering Place). More could be told like the nicknames of the island or the volcanoes.

Poems "Island Man" and "The Fringe Of The Sea" I recently read two poems entitled "Island Man" and "The Fringe Of The Sea". They are both similar in theme, but they also have many differences. Both poems are based on the emotions of people who live near the sea and their feelings towards it.
