Answer:
I am so upset at myself. I don’t know where my head was. Finally, here I was, with $80 to my name (which is meager compensation for a two-month cattle drive), and then I lose it all gambling. Just one night, and now I am bankrupt all over again. Yesterday was my 22nd birthday, as well as my payday, so I allowed myself a little gambling in Abilene, Kansas, a cow town. But I got so caught up in the action that I couldn’t stop, and pretty soon, I was broke.
I had been hoping to save enough money to start my own business, Bronco Jones and Company, but I suppose that will just have to wait for the next cattle drive. Hopefully, by then I will have better sense.
But enough talk about that. I shall write about the cattle drive, in case I ever look back in this journal 20 years from now and wonder what it was like. Cowhands have very tough jobs, not to mention boring at times. I am a swing rider, and I help keep the cattle from straying. There are several other cowhands and, of course, a point rider and a cook. Lucky for us, we now have a talented cook who can turn anything into a delicious meal. We've had much worse cooks in the past.
One little piece of excitement that sticks out in my mind is the day a single gunshot started a cattle stampede. I didn’t even have time to wonder where it came from, for in a split second, the longhorns had already taken off at an alarming run. It was all chaos for some time. Finally we managed to slow down the stampeding herd by turning them in a wide circle. That memory shall certainly amuse me for some years to come, and I do need some fun, for tomorrow I am returning to Texas for yet another cattle drive. I hope it's my last.
hope this helps
The Suez Canal now follows the Isthmus of Suez, the smallest gulf between the Mediterranean Sea and the Gulf of Suez, as the traditional boundary between Africa and Asia.
<h2>Which body of water divides Africa from the Middle East?</h2>
The Strait of Gibraltar, a constrictive gorge, links the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean. Land nearly fully encircles the sea, with Europe to the north, North Africa to the south, and the Middle East to the east.
The Isthmus of Suez is a 125-kilometer (75-mile) wide land strait that separates the continents of Asia and Africa. It is situated between the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea.
The Suez Rift, which separates the Sinai Peninsula from mainland Egypt and Africa, flows beneath it. Geographically connecting the Mediterranean and Red Seas, it is found in Egypt. It shares with many other isthmuses a significant strategic and historical significance, most notably because of the Suez Canal.
Thank you,

A debate from the perspective of a Northerner over Missouri Statehood would be one talking about the importance of limiting slavery.
A argument from a Southerner would be one arguing that Northerners should allow slavery in states that want slavery.
<h3>What were the arguments for Missouri Statehood?</h3>
Missouri wanted to gain admission into the Union as a slave state and the North did not want this because they were against slavery spreading to other parts of the Union.
Southerners on the other hand, wanted slavery in Missouri as they believed that it would increase the power of slave states in Congress. They therefore argued that territories such as Missouri that wanted slavery, should be free to have slavery.
