- **HOW MANY BULLETS ARE IN THE GUN?** (Note this changes from flashback to present-day, and we're gonna explore WHY soon--see if you can figure it out! :) )
- COLORS? anything besides the ashen grayness of the landscape (*NOTE THOSE *OTHER* FEW COLORS b/c it is/they are significant!)
- remember/locate FIRE references--positive or negative connotation?
- "...THE ROAD..." mentioned over and over at the breaks of each segment of the narrative, and WHAT it represents; WHY?
- **the part with the FLASHBACK to a DOG--pay attention! *Was also mentioned before through pp. 69; why is this significant? (**REMEMBER TALKING ABOUT "THE 21st CENTURY GOOD GUY" and CHOICES that must be made to protect the child that is his "warrant" (5).)
- MAJOR THEMATIC TIE-IN: ***CARRYING THE FIRE*** What does this mean?
- "THE GOOD GUYS" vs. **"THE BAD GUYS"--look for these references; what ARE the differences in the two? (**pp 90-92 IS HUGE for this in descriptive detail of 'the bad guys'
