This restaurant takes us back to the 40's and 50's and reminds us how much fun they had back then. Johnny Rockets is like a time machine, it takes us back in time to see what it was like in the past. When you eat there, you realize how much fun you could have had if you lived back then. I think for an older person it helps them to remember what great times they had when they were younger. All age groups go and eat at this restaurant because it brings out the happiness in everyone. By having a restaurant like this, I think it shows how we haven't forgotten about what has happened back in the 40's and 50's.

How is Steve Blake not the official spokesperson for Johnny Rockets?

It's like getting machine-gunned with endless compact sentences.

This just reminds me how much I really hate Johnny Rockets.

MORE BURGERS, LESS SINGING.

Is that the place where John Travolta took Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction?

It's a place that aspires to be a place that's a bad imitation of that place.

As to the main topic:

I have to sit in a dark room for a while now that I have a migraine from reading Steve Blake's black font on red background essay.

How much harder do any of us try in that spot. I like to think of myself as a pretty moral person- but no way am I writing a real college paper if I don't have to.

It would be harder to plagiarize and butcher the grammar like that than to crank out a paragraph with correct punctuation and original content on the same topic. I'm certain that I could do better in no more than bout 350 seconds.

Scroll down to the first page of chapter one.

This post isn't getting nearly enough attention. The paper is merely the first page of the book re-written to be in the third person, with a few typos mixed in.

the best part is that that book is also titled "Rosa Parks: My Story" so its not like they even tried to hide where they plagiarized from.

how about they dont farce about, and just pay people who want to become football players... and those that want to be students, should actually be students?

Sadly, at the D3 University I work at, I'd say around 95% of my colleagues would give that paper an A. Not because of the athlete connection, but because something was submitted, and that is the norm threshold for accomplishment by anyone at this dump.

So without the typos he would have had an A+?
