Candy, the character I've chosen is an aging handy-man who lives on the ranch and sleeps in the bunks with all the men.  Candy is always worrying about his future on the ranch, due to the fact that he does not have a hand.  In my opinion Candy is a whole hearted hard working man, who is in fear for his job and the well-being of his blind, toothless dog who really is useless.  Carlson then decided to shoot Candys dog, to take him out of his misery.

I feel Candy is a very old nice man, who is just trying to get through life with no problems, just working hard.

Last winter, me and my family took a trip to Cancun, Mexico for my birthday.  We got to go snorkling, scuba diving, parasailing, swimming in a cave, climbed the Mayan temple "Coba", and went jet-skiing.  The photo to the top right is the beach infront of my hotel! The water was so warm and blue, it was beautiful.  The photo to the left, is me snorkling in a cave underground, and the photo just under it is Coba, the Mayan ruin.  I got to climb Coba all the way to the top! It was gorgeous for up there, you could see the whole jungle, you were above the tree line!  Mexico was one of my favorite places to go, and I wish I could go back.

Well, I feel everyone should have a chance to walk with everyone. By that, I mean everyone should be treated equally and given a fighting chance.  If you believe that you can, then you always will be able to.  In the music video "Hero" he was giving the message that he just wants to be like everyone else, and lead a normal lifestyle.  Even though he's been trying his best to keep up (raise his daughter, etc.) he still wants to just be a normal guy, who has chances.

 I thought that Mathilde's priorities were a little askew, but I feel she realized that near the end of the book.  I understand why she felt she had to impress everyone, all her friends were living "the american dream" and she at leased wanted to make it seem like she was aswell.  Mathlide was infact greedy at the beginning of the story, but she learned her lesson at the end.  Having to work countless years of your life, because you did not want to own up to what you did, is rediculous.  If she had confessed right away to Mdme Forester, they would have figured something out together.  Mathilde was so desperately looking to live the American dream, that she would put herself through anything to gain the apperance that she is important and rich.  She learned her lesson at the end, though. She had gone from upper-middle class, to way below the poverty line. In theory, everyone should at leased understand why she did some of the things she did. She had surrounded herself with friends that were infact living the American dream.  They were rich, powerful, and everything she wanted to be.  As you can certainly see in the story, Mathilde just wants it to seem like she is living the dream, but clearly she is not.
