Personality

Charlie Chaplin was an English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer who rose
to fame in the silent era. Chaplin became a worldwide icon through his screen
persona "the Tramp" and is considered one of the most important figures in the
history of the film industry.

Chaplin wrote, directed, produced, edited, starred in, and composed the music for
most of his films. He was a perfectionist, and his financial independence enabled
him to spend years on the development and production of a picture. His films are
characterised by slapstick combined with pathos, typified in the Tramp struggles
against adversity.
I think that Charlie Chaplin was invaluable comic actor.
Monument
Stonehenge is perhaps the most astounding construction of pre-history still
standing. Though largely in ruins, this mighty relic still has the power to incite
amazement, awe and wonder.
Stonehenge was built in southern England. Stonehenge was constructed in stages
over thousands of years. The henge was dug approximately 5000 years ago;
No one is sure exactly who constructed Stonehenge. All we really know is that
construction was begun by people of the Neolithic period and completed by those
who supplanted them.
In my opinion this majestic monument remains today a rugged and beautiful
monument to the astonishing skill and dedication of its "primitive" builders.
Holiday
Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated in Canada and in the United States as a
day of giving thanks for a blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year.
It is celebrated on the second Monday of October in Canada and on the fourth Thursday of
November in United States.
Thanksgiving has its historical roots in religions and cultural traditions in a secular manner as
well.
Prayers of thanks and special thanksgiving ceremonies are common among almost all
religions after harvests and at other times.
