5. Like how he explained his life in 3 lines
6.dont understand poo-tee-weet
7. Like how he said it in the beginning and in the end
8. Like how his war book was the first chapter
9. Don't like how short his "war book" was could have gone more into detail
10. Think it's funny how he relates the writing to be written by a pillar of salt

There is a big plain where New York puts its ashes and the workers shovel it for a job. At one point Tom forces nick to get out of the train and walk. He takes him to George Wilson's garage. Tom then takes them to New York City to a apartment. They have a party in the apartment. Tom broke myrtles nose because she wouldn't shut up about daisy and it pretty much ended the party. Which makes nick leave with Mr.Mckee.

Nick just moved into the town called west egg where the rich live. His house is right next to gastpy's house. Nick has many connections on east egg unlike the other people on west egg that don't really have a sense if communication. When nick sees gastpy for the first time he is on the lawn facing towards the dock with his arms out.
