Tentative Thesis Paragraph

Oh gee, this essay is going to be challenging for me - but I am up for the challenge!!!!
I chose option #1 pretaining to Supermarkets.

Remember, this is tentative :)


"In Blacksmith, in the supermarket....I feel I'm learning important things everyday..." (p.36). Not most people would find a supermarket as a place to learn new and important things but in the book "White Noise" by Don DeLillo, the supermarket is a very prominent place of learning. Have you ever wondered why people even think to talk at supermarkets? Can't they just be on their way and act like people aren't around? There is a certain atmosphere in supermarkets that affects every person in there. The supermarket is a recurring and important theme in "White Noise" because it shows the normality of an American life, the regularity of people, and the ability for one place to have an effect on a person's whole attitude and thinking. 


I am really hoping this is going to be "flowable" if that is considered a word :)
