![]() ![]() In its early days, the building which houses the Pirates’ House was a gathering place for seamen, criminals and other unsavory characters. However, what stories told about the Pirates’ House are true and which are not? lends to a lot of history and a lot of leftover ghostly energy. Since that time it has accumulated more than its share of ghost stories and a very haunted reputation. ![]() This little building dates back to 1754 and is considered to be the oldest building in Georgia. The small building beside what many people see as the ‘main building’ is called the Herb House. The building which houses the Pirate’s House is over 250 years old.

In any case, I have a clear view of a figure, twenty-odd meters away, beyond the edge of our property where the lawn gives way to a sandy walking path.

If not for the kids and my older sister, Kat-who is perched at my kitchen counter-it might have been romantic. He’s dimmed the lights, lit some candles, even trotted out his best French accent.

Edgar Hoover is sitting with a drunken Jackie Gleason and a splenetic Frank Sinatra, and learns of the Soviet Union's second detonation of a nuclear bomb. Written in what DeLillo calls "super-omniscience" the sentences sweep from young Cotter Martin as he jumps the gate to the press box, soars over the radio waves, runs out to the diamond, slides in on a fast ball, pops into the stands where J. Underworld opens with a breathlessly graceful prologue set during the final game of the Giants-Dodgers pennant race in 1951. While Eisenstein documented the forces of totalitarianism and Stalinism upon the faces of the Russian peoples, DeLillo offers a stunning, at times overwhelming, document of the twin forces of the Cold War and American culture, compelling that "swerve from evenness" in which he finds events and people both wondrous and horrifying. ![]() ![]() He would become so engrossed in his thinking that no one could shake him out of it.

To this day, I still get Martha Stewart living in the mail as a gift for my mom each Christmas. I remember binge watching Martha stewart episode in her home kitchen showing us “good Things” and then getting the magazines each month, rushing to the “good things” section because there would usually always be a craft easy enough for me to do even at the age of four or five. Back then, my mom ran the local 4H club with another Farmers wife and taught sewing to many kids through the program. Martha Stewart has been an idol for me since I was 3 years old. ![]() ![]() ![]() Reading 2.2 Expand comprehension by analyzing, interpreting, and synthesizing information and ideas.
