12/3

"Maybe that's it, he never gave the Combine a chance,just like he never gave the black boy a chance to get him with the thermometer yesterday morning, because a moving target is hard to hit." (pg.84) - Cheif Bromden

Today we read pages 78 - 92. In the beginning of class we discussed how McMurphy saw Bromden flintch when a loud noise filled the hospital. He has suspicions that Bromden is a fake. Today in the book Old Blastic died. Two aides carried him away. People suspected that the aides had killed him. But the truth is that Old Blastic found a way to slit his own throat. White men had came to buy the reservation and Cheif Bromdens father said "Geese came last year,and the year before that and the year before that." Meaning that every year white men come and try to buy the land.
