In Toronto, the WiFi may come with a side of electronic snooping
I think there is nothing wrong with that and I don't think about it as an invasion of privacy. These businesses are not interested in tracking us down or looking at our Facebook and personal life. It is just a marketing strategy which could be useful for our country and for us as well. They will advertise us the things we need and things we are interested in. The only thing they should do,in my opinion, is letting people know about this,so if they don't want to be tracked down-they can turn the Wi-Fi off. People should have a choice.

No,they would not make a good couple because they have two opposite opinions about being a wife and the family. The Wife of Bath's thinks that the wife should have all the power while Goodman says that she should give herself in to husband completely. They agree on that a woman should win the love of her husband but they disagree on what should happen next. Goodman thinks that she should be loving and privy toward her husband above all other living creatures fot the whole life but the Wife of Bath's wouldn't live like that. In her opinion, wise woman will win love and after having him in her hands why bother caring about him unless it is useful to you. They are two leaders and it is almost impossible for two leaders to make a good and happy couple.

**02/28/2014 Electronic Cigarettes**
I agree that e-cigs lead to addictive use of regular cigarette because,as it said in article,electronic cigarettes contain the addictive chemical nicotine and traces of cancer-causing compounds called nitrosamines.One study also found that 1.1% of students in grades 6 through 8 were using e-cigarettes at least once a month, as were 2.8% of students in grades 9 to 12 which proves that use increases and there is some addictive reaction. I think that e-cigs should be regulated in the same way that regular cigarettes are because use of e-cigs lead in a lot of cases to the use of regular cigarettes. Also, if it would be allowed to use e-cigs at schools, it would show bad example for other kids. I think it would be better for everybody's health to restrict use of e-cigs.

So that was a good week. I was invited to prom on Tuesday, which was really sweet. He wrote me a poem and gave me a rose, so I couldn't say no. That's my second prom since I already had one last year in Russia( we have 11 grades there) but I'm still very excited. Me and my friend are going shopping this weekend to try on few dresses, hopefully buy one. We have a big company so we are planning on ordering a limo and a restaurant. Can't wait:))))))

They are the same in that both of them use exaggeration, incongruity, irony, and parody in the text. In Modest Proposal that can be seen when he suggests that the only way to save Ireland from overpopulation and poverty is to kill the children of the poor families and serve their meat as a delicacy to the nobility of Ireland. He goes so far as making recipes of childrens' mean. I think his purpose is to show that parents should pay more attention to their children and caring more about them, it is said in a harsh way though. In open letter of Kansas we can see irony in a spaggetty monster. Purpose of this letter is to show that there are other points of view except one existing and people should be able to hear that. I think Modest Proposal went a little bit too far with eating the children, that is not appropriate to show children as food. Letter of Kansas is ok though, it has a strong point of view and it is appropriate.
