Chapter 15

Wow...do i have a lot to say about this chapter. What is the deal with all the psychology stuff? What kind of education does Eric have with that? I think he just knew a few buzz words and wanted to seem like he knew what he was talking about. And although psychology isn't technology, i would think the Amish wouldn't be interested in it. I thought they liked living in the 90's....the 1890's i mean.

I'm glad to see those people have some normal things in life. Like ice cream. But it's probably not as good as Hagen Das.

And here i go again complaining about Eric. I've counted about seven times so far in this book about how fake he is. Well here is number eight. What is he doing with a digital watch? He was working in the field and wanted to check the times of how much progress they were making. But the last time i checked, a digital watch fell into the category of modern technology. ...what a fraud.

The mention of Charlie Chaplin's movie , Modern Times was funny. I saw a clip of it last year in class and it was not bad. It was just a movie making fun of how industry was changing. The scene i saw was with Charlie on an assembly line and pretty much everything went wrong. So anyway, i was glad that i could relate to what he was talking about.

And i finally got to see how dumb Edward was. He stuck his finger into the sewing machine and it got caught. What a moron. And apparently a couple of his other fingers were already messed up from a meat grinder. I think maybe Edward rode the short bus when he was in school. Oh wait, they don't have those. But still...pretty dumb.
