Like all of my opinions, the inspiration for this article came from an incident I had in class. I was totally not doing my English homework when the conversation turned inevitably toward politics, and I say inevitably because when they're not talking about going to prom or the new Akon album, teenagers often try their hand at political punditry. "Try" is emphasized for a reason because quite frankly, teenagers make lousy pundits.
ACTIVITIES:

"Final Fantasy" has accumulated quite a few laurels over the last 16-plus years, but no one ever seems content to rest on them. With every sequel Ᾱ spin-offs notwithstanding Ᾱ Square introduces both a brand-new universe of characters and a heavily retooled means of carrying this universe's story to its conclusion.
