George Washington

.... country. Only one of these facts are true. Washington did have false teeth. His false teeth were made of whale bone and deer antlers. He never chopped down a cherry tree, and unless his pitching arm was better than that of any professional baseball player, he could have never thrown anything across the river. The most startling fact is that he wasn't even the first president. Our first president was John Hanson. He was elected president of the thirteen states in the Confederation. After Hanson, there were more before Washington. There was Elias Boudinot, Thomas Mifflin, Richard Henery and Cyrus Griffin. At the age of 17, Washington began traveling across rivers, mountain ....

.... family who were Scottish immigrants. Here he learned the english language and the Protestant faith.

1984: Winston's Hatred Of Big Brother
716 Words - 3 Pages

.... Party, and he was not himself when he said he loved Big Brother. Winston, the Party's opposition, had the only hope to rebel. Winston wrote in his diary "if there is hope, it lies in the proles." Winston was sane and acted upon feelings knowing he would be executed for them. When Winston first met Julia, he thought that she was a spy and he wanted to bash in her skull. When he read her message which was "I love you", he was stunned and also pleased that someone had feelings for him. If Winston was totally under Big Brother's power he wouldn't have felt the urge to return the love, and have the anxiety of wondering if she did really love him rather then just throwing away th ....

.... like that. He should then have asked her to come to his room later that day. When she arrived he tried to force her to have sex with him. He should also have showed her his thing. She turned him down and he gave up and said that she should forget all about this. That is what she has told, we are still waiting to hear Bill Clinton's statement. Another big problem to Bill is that he has been unable to fulfil those very big promises he gave during his election campaign in 1992. That has given his credibility and the polls a big push down. One of his promises was his health program, the purpose of this was to give people with not so many money a chance to get treated at a h ....
