Stumble upon 1-3 #2 stephen cutlip

This topic caught my eye from being interesting and even more surprising to me in how the situation played out, along with the fact he didn't even know what was going on in tell it was practically over. I would recommend this stumble to my classmates because it is funny and pretty awesome story to be able to get in a shot of a high profile movie. The topic is interesting and a once and a life time opportunity, along with that it isn't to long making it a great stumble to recommend. As for citing his sources he really didn't have any besides stating were he was since his story is all first hand experience. The main question i would have for him would be if he made the cut or not, but that cant be answered in till the movie is out.

This blog grab my interest with how bizarre that would be to see in a everyday street. The pictures gave you a good idea how it would to be apart of that and to see others reactions. I also learned that they apparently carry huge whales on tractor trailers as well. I would recommend this to my classmates because everyone enjoys hearing about bizarre incidents specially on the scale that this was. Another reason is because it has good pictures and with these sort of times words are never enough. As for citing his sources he did cite the pictures, just not in great detail naming MSNBC and other for his sources. This isn't great citing but is better than nothing. One question i would have would be how long it took to clean up and how long was the smell in the streets.

This stumble is interesting to me because it shows how we are connected through food and it is surprising that some restaurants you would think of only in America and other neighboring modern countries would be spread throughout the world in such high numbers. I think my classmates would like this because it helps you realize how connected the world is now unlike a few hundred years ago. They cite their sources at the bottom left corner. A question I would ask would be what are some other big companies spread throughout the world.

This is interesting and new to me because i haven't seen anyone do this before. He paints himself to blind in or look "invisible" in the surrounding environment. I would recommend this to a class mate because it is entertaining and pretty cool to look at. For citing the sources they give credit to the artist at the top but not to who took the picture. One question I would have is how long it took to paint him?

This link interest me because it has some humor and is also sort of sad in the fact that this person either doesn't know about the Holocaust which is surprising, or he just decided to make fun of it which wasn't the best idea. But the rest of the paper has humor to it. I would recommend this to classmates because it does have humor in it and if they ever wrote a bad paper it wasn't as bad as this one. For citing the source's they didn't really do that because it was suppose to be confidential to the student. One question i would have is how he made it to US history II?

This interest me because it shows how others view Americans as a whole on world knowledge. It's funny because its true on some of the stereotypes not saying that is all majority of Americans think this way. I think my classmates would enjoy it because its funny and true also they can judge for them self if they agree with them. They didn't cite any source's its just a picture you cant tell if they did the picture of found it else were. One question i would ask is if you had to change uninhabited for Canada what would it be?
