"The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made."
In your fifth blog entry, you should
(1) Express book 5 of the Aeneid from the perspective of Achates.
(2) Have Achates discuss his reaction to Aeneas' handing out the prizes in book 5 and the fairness/unfairness of the Trojan situation in general. How does he feel that Aeneas' means of handing out the prizes reflects the larger fairness of the Trojan plight in general, if it does?
(3) Use the suggestions of those who have commented on your previous blogs (ESPECIALLY ME!) to improve the quality of your essay.

Quoted: Oscar Wilde
"Those who are faithless know the pleasures of love; it is the faithful who know love's tragedies."
In your fourth blog entry, you should
(1) Express book 4 of the Aeneid from the perspective of Achates.
(2) Have Achates discuss his feelings about how Aeneas treated Dido. Maybe he has an inside perspective on the eternal question of book 4: Did Aeneas actually love Dido, or was he just using her?

Quoted: Quentin Crisp
"Nothing shortens a journey so pleasantly as an account of misfortunes at which the hearer is permitted to laugh."
Quentin Crisp
What humor exists in the the otherwise tragic story of the journeys of the Trojans to lighten the reader's emotional burden?
