Nargles reviews a classic.

A haunting love story of two fiercely passionate, unforgettable characters, "Wuthering Heights" is classic English literature at its finest. One of the most popular highly regarded novels, written by one of the finest writers of the nineteenth century. Emily Bronte writes a magnificent plot with artistic subtlety and full of vivid imagery. You really do feel like you're standing in England, late 1880's.

Catherine Earnshaw, rebellious in her youth, lived with her family and a boy named Heathcliff, an orphan boy who her father brought home from a business trip. Catherine grows to be an atrociously opinionated woman, and Heathcliff no better. As she grows she finds herself to be in the middle of a love triangle with two men ? or is it love? The novel takes you through generations, teaching the lesson to love the one you truly love.

Vancyon does some investigative reporting to expose dishonest behavior.

Author's Note: I don't want people to think I am bashing every y-mail helper. I just think that a few of these y-mail helpers are taking advantage of a dated system with bad intentions. I am not going to mention any usernames but my own in this article.

Vancyon here! It has been about 5 years since I became a y-mail helper, but after becoming inactive for a few years, I had pretty much forgotten about it until I decided to check my y-mail at 5 am one day. Big mistake! I'd received a y-mail from City Hall announcing January's helper of the month.

The first thing I thought of when I was reading the y-mail was the sheer amount of time people were sitting in the help center - twenty hours? I thought that would take insane dedication! I was a bit suspicious, though, because sitting in a Help Center for twenty hours answering people's questions does not seem like the funnest way of passing time. Even on my most active months as a y-mail helper, I probably only sat in the Help Center for a good two or three hours per month.
