Holly Smokes...

Did we blaze through Animal Farm or what?  Okay, simple text, double plot.  So a couple of things still to ponder though:
        First, why didn't Benjamin take action?  I mean, he's smart enough to understand what is going on with the farm, and he's best friends with the strongest guy on the place, Boxer, so why didn't he act?  I don't know about you, but that bugs me.  
    Second, what is Orwell saying about the intelligence of people?  
    Third, this is a satire, so what is it satirizing?  

Okay Advanced Compers, we're back on the blog bandwagon.  
Start gathering your favorite advertisements found in your paper media...(Like magazines or newspapers...)  
And remember: All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.  Which category to you fall into?  Equal or more equal?
