Catch-22 #1

A. The difference in the two conversations are that one is about a child hood, and what he did for a purpose, or no purpose. However, the second conversation was about war and how everyone was out to get Yossarian, but the people couldn't be identified even though they were real. Nothing was resolved but in each conversation questions that weren't asked were indirectly answered by both men as they were rambling. The reason is they were too caught up in their own world to realize and focus on the question being asked, however they were answering other questions that would possibly lead up to the answer if they kept going with their ramblings of facts. Yossarian's role is changed from being the questioned to the questioner.He thinks that they are pretty self righteous or crazy while, they think he has the Jehovah Complex or some sort compared to it. Yes, they lead to the people making the assumptions of how and why he is the way he acts.

C. It means that every where else crazy people have contaminated the wards, however his particular ward is free from the craziness of the rest of the world. Yossarian shows the most insane qualities from his ramblings of him being poisoned to his ramblings of wanting to know why Orr wanted big cheeks. He impacted the ward in a very contagious way. Plus, he doesn't really contribute he is more slacker and he takes up space. For example, when he doesn't read letters and passes them along with an alias that he reciprocals every now and then.

D. I agree becasue he seems to think that every one is a Jehovah. He therefore sets himself upon a pedestal and he believes that he is greater than the others. As well as, thinking that the others think that they are better than him. He is the oxymoron to the Jehovah Complex. One moment he has it towards others then its vice versa.

Blog Post 2 and 3

2)Paradox-A paradox is like an oxymoron, because it contradicts it self.
Catch 22-A catch is a lose-lose situation, meaning either way you will lose something.

3) In the first story he says that the self-educated think too much of education. However, if a person is self edcuated why would they think so much of education. The paradox is we can be great without education, but the way society is education is what's needed to succeed. This is because many people think very highly of education, and those are the self-educated or the teachings of the self-educated and half-educated that leave almost everything to education.

In the second story he says that we complain about how overbearing the government may seem. However, we want to spread our way of government throughout the world. Also, we claim to have the best government as we complain about how much money is wasted upon many different things. This is an oxymoron of the American people. Such as eating too much when we can, or drinking too much when we can, as well as being complacent in our lives but wanting more for ourselves as well as the next generation.

Intro

I'm the baddest with words, ok not yet great.
No cliche flow so my haters no love to escape
My wrath, my fury, But yet still I chill.
And realize I am Legend Like My name was Will.
And Yes I just chill, I no deal cuz I'm thrilling.
If the beat then fulfills you then my flow overflowingly kills
the pain and the strife in peoples lives.
Too many mothers but not enough wives.
Ha... Yes pro creation, We're pros at the destroying the nation
but we killing nature, with improper nomenclature.
And If it seems I spit nonsense then you just have no sense.
Cuz my cents are doors, their sense is floors.
And I may be based on their foundation
But I am the way to a new nation.
So, if you agree with me then us become we
Because We the people are standing now taller than steeples
And as We grow then they grow. They being non believers
in the fact that we are the Ones not named Neo but sons and daughters
of the fighters, and loveliest writers that came before but they weren't the door.
Because they were the founding and we evolved to astounding,
People that can and will be, WE, because actually We the people is You and Me.


Just chillin' thinkin' LMAO ;-)>
