I am so obsessed with this man that I had to make another slide show.
Mr. Christian Bale is beautiful in every sense of the word:
beau•ti•ful
ADJECTIVE:
1. Having qualities that delight the senses, especially the sense of sight.
2. Excellent; wonderful.
3. Having qualities of beauty: exciting aesthetic pleasure.
4. Generally pleasing.
Christian Bale is the total package: creativity, talent, drive, and looks. I just saw his new movie, Rescue Dawn, the other day. An amazing movie. Another amazing performance by Christian Bale, of course.
The song, “Beautiful,” is by Laurie Sargent. You may remember her from the 1980s band, Face to Face, and their somewhat hit song, “10-9-8.”
Enjoy! This is purely for fun. There is no profit for me—only my enjoyment of Christian and good music.

The thesis most include how the setting and first-person narrator affect the theme.
The Inner Sammy
The short story “A&P” by John Updike takes place in a grocery store called “The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company” (A&P) on a hot summer day in the middle of a town near a beach.. It is narrated by a first-person narrator. Sammy, the main character, is a creative nineteen year old cashier, who seems not to enjoy his job in the A&P. The story begins when three girls in swimsuits walk in to the store to buy some snacks. Sammy starts to describe each girl in comparison to the products that are sold in the grocery store, and he even gives each girl a name. In the end of the story, Lengel, A&P’s manager, comments "Girls, this isn't the beach" on the way the girls are dressed, and asks them to come with their shoulders covered next time they visit the store (Updike, par. 13). In the perspective of Sammy, Lengel’s commentaries were a humiliation for the girls, and he quits in an attempt to gain the girls’ appreciation. The theme of the story is how the setting and first-person narration affects the broad imagination that male teenagers have on women.
The grocery store setting helps to shape the central theme by the opportunities that it gives Sammy to expand his imagination. In the grocery store, there are a lot of items. This is an advantage for the author to use his imagination to compare the girls with the items available. For instance, “there was this one, with one of those chubby berry-faces” (Updike, par. 2). In this quote Sammy is comparing one of the girls’ faces with chubby berry. Also, the grocery store is a place where a myriad of people visit and where Sammy can see lots of unconventional stuff. These three girls can be one of his experiences in his work. It is also a place where Sammy can have more freedom to look at the girls, especially on a non-busy day. For example, at one point he thinks to himself, “The store's pretty empty, it being Thursday afternoon, so there was nothing much to do except lean on the register and wait for the girls to show up again” (Updike, par. 12). Sammy has the opportunity to look at these girls in different angles as they walk through the aisle; “From the third slot I look straight up this aisle to the meat counter, and I watched them all the way” (Updike, par. 5). If he would have worked in the newspaper store or in the real-estate office, he might not have the opportunities to describe the girls with such detail. For instance, “She had sort of okay hair that the sun and salt had bleached, done up in a bun that was unraveling, and a kind of prim face” (Updike, par. 4). Sammy has the opportunity to use his creativity in describing women in the story as a consequence of the spare time, and the views that his job offers.
Another component that helped shape the central theme of “A&P” is the narration in first person point of view. By narrating the story in first-person, the readers can understand what is happening in Sammy’s head. For example, “I could feel in the silence everybody getting nervous, most of all Lengel, who asks me, "Sammy, have you rung up this purchase?" I thought and said "No" but it wasn't about that I was thinking.” (Updike par 20-21). First person point of view is more personal, and expresses accurately the purpose or cause of Sammy’s behavior.
You know, it's one thing to have a girl in a bathing suit down on the beach, where what with the glare nobody can look at each other much anyway, and another thing in the cool of the A & P, under the fluorescent lights, against all those stacked packages, with her feet paddling along naked over our checkerboard green-and-cream rubber-tile floor (Updike, par.6)
In this quote the readers can appreciate the admiration and desires that Sammy has on these girls; Sammy is contrasting the difference between having the girls almost naked in the A&P and having these girls on the beach. Sammy’s point of view makes the story more interesting by giving the readers the imaginative thoughts on women the he had.
There are many aspects that can have a direct influence on the theme of a story. In “A&P”, the grocery store setting expresses the stereotypical job of a teenager (cashier). It also helps Sammy to use his creativity to describe the girls with the products they sell. The setting of a story is a helpful tool to convey the author’s ideas. Clearly, in this story, John Updike wants to express the typical characteristics of a male teenager, particularly the way they think about women. The first person narration allows the readers to understand what he is thinking, experiencing, and feeling in the story. Sometimes imagination exceeds reality, and the consequences can be not as expected. In Sammy’s case, he thinks that by defending the girls, he is going to be their hero, and may have a relationship with the girls, but in the end he lost his job, and did not find the girls as he imagined.
Thesis statement…
The male fantasy of idealizing the male role with women actually involves seeing women as sexual objects…with the inevitable consequence of failure in the real world.
…can make your day!
