> A Walmart employee would get fired for giving the girl free anything and the girl would be charged with shoplifting.You don't know that, you are just playing into stereotypes.> Try to see the good in things will you and stop all this negative talk.It's not negative talk to say there was nothing heroic about doing a good deed. It is foolish talk to inflate it and probably embarrassing to the kid who did it. Why not put him up for a Nobel Peace prize if you think this was such an important incident? ;-)> Don't put him down for helping someoneNo one is putting him down ... I don't see on post here that is putting the kid down for doing what a kid or anyone else should do. Why this kind of Orwellian reverse attacks. If I take my kid to the doctor for a treatment of a fatal disease and he lives, am I a hero? Stop this kind of weirdness please.Great job Nick, don't let this be the most heroic thing you ever do in your life! ;-)Gosh, people have really learned how to spin with the best of the mainstream media, how awful, see what Fox News has done to everyone!
A Man Called Hero online free
The real hero's journey began with the wonderfully named Clementine Paddleworth, who probably coined the word in a food column for the New York Herald Tribune in 1936, since the sandwich was so large "you had to be a hero to eat it." Since the NYHT went belly-up in 1966, there aren't any searchable archives online, but an enterprising food historian out there could go check out Rutgers University's microfilm archive to pin this one down for good. Barry Popik, on OED contributor and general food word expert, traces the word back to a 1937 Lexicon of Trade Jargon published by the WPA, which describes "hero" as "armored car guards jargon" for a big sandwich. That throws a little doubt on the Paddleworth Hypothesis, since it's unlikely a bunch of armored car guards would just pick up words from the paper willy-nilly, but the underlying "gotta be a hero to eat it" is still a strong contender.
"They called him 'Crazy Joe,' but we called him our hero," said Della McCall-Fischer, a former Eastside student who now serves as Paterson Mayor Andre Sayegh's chief of staff. "That's what he was to me. A hero."
