The short story 'Going home', written by Pete Hamill, an American journalist deals with Vingo,a former prisoner, going home and telling his story. On a bus, six young people, three boys and three girs from New York are going to Florida on holiday. Also a man, a former prisoner called Vingo sits in the same bus on his way home to Brunswick. The young people are thinking about their holiday when they notice that the man never moves and does not say anything at all. The bus stops at a restaurant and everybody gets off exept Vingo. The young people start to wonder about his behavior. When they come back, one of them, a girl, sits beside him, introduces herself and starts a small conversation. She offers him some wine, which Vingo gratefully accepts. After a while the girl goes back to the other, when the man is nearly about to fall asleep. The next morning he goes into the restaurant to the young people. He orders coffee and smokes nervously. When the girl sits with him again in the bus he starts to tell her his story. Vingo has been in prison for the last three and a half years and had been now released. He is going home, to his town called Brunswick. The girl asks him if he is marred, to which he replies that he does not know that. He wrote to his wife that it is okay for him if she does not want to stay with him togehter anymore or if she found a new man, but she never answered. He wrote to her that, if she does not think this way, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the big oak tree in their town, so that he knows that she still wants him back. He also showes the girl and the others pictures of his wife and his three children. When the bus reaches Brunswick all the young people, who got to know his story too, are shouting and screaming, because the oak tree is covered with a lot of yellow handkerchiefs. Vingo is not shouting. He gets up from his seat slowly and stars his way home.

The short story 'Going home', written by Pete Hamill, an American journalist(Entweder brauchst du ein Komma nach Journalist oder du kannst sagen, "American journalist Pete Hamill") deals with Vingo,a former prisoner, going home and telling his story. On a bus, six young people, three boys and three girls from New York are going to Florida on holiday (Note: "Vacation" wird in den USA gesagt). Also a man ("also a man"? Er ist auch ein Mann?), a former prisoner called Vingo sits in the same bus on his way home to Brunswick. The young people are thinking about their holiday when they notice that the man (welcher Mann?) never moves and does not say anything at all. The bus stops at a restaurant and everybody gets off except Vingo. The young people start to wonder about his behavior. When they come back, one of them, a girl, sits beside him, introduces herself and starts a small conversation. She offers him some wine, which Vingo gratefully accepts. After a while the girl goes back to the other, when the man is nearly about to fall asleep. The next morning he goes into the restaurant to the young people. He orders coffee and smokes nervously. When the girl sits with him again in the bus*Komma he starts to tell her his story. Vingo has been in prison for the last three and a half years and had been now released (had just been released). He is going home**, (kein Komma)** to his town called Brunswick (Gehört das Town zu ihm?). The girl asks him if he is marred, to which he replies that he does not know that ('that' hier ist nicht erförderlich). He wrote to his wife that it is okay for him if she does not want to stay with him togehter anymore or if she found a new man, but she never answered. He wrote to her that, if she does not think this way, she should put a yellow handkerchief on the big oak tree in their town, so that he knows that she still wants him back. He also showes the girl and the others pictures of his wife and his three children. When the bus reaches Brunswick all the young people, who got to know his story too, are shouting and screaming, because the oak tree is covered with a lot of yellow handkerchiefs. Vingo is not shouting. He gets up from his seat slowly and stars his way home.

Hoffentlich hilft das ein bisschen!

Ich bin aus den USA und ich habe diese Partys nur in Filme gesehen. Hollywood ist nicht wie National Geographic. Die Wirklichkeit ist nicht wichtig für Hollywood.

In meiner Erfahrung ist eine amerikanische Hausparty fast genauso wie ein deutsche Hausparty aber die Amerikaner sind komischer mit Alkohol, weil es ein Tabu ist.

An der Uni haben "Fraternities" und "Sororities" große verrückte Partys aber ich denke, man muss ein Mitglied sein.

Normalerweise wenn ich meinen Flug mit United in Deutschand buche, fliege ich mit Lufthansa oder Air Canada. United, Lufthansa, und Air Canada sind alle 'Star Alliance.' Ich fliege oft mit United, und die sind eine sichere airline. Guten Flug! :)
