Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close to 261

1. Biographical Index:
Julie Zingeser- phones
Tyler Perry- money
Tiger Woods- money
Nadya Suleman- children
R. Allen Stanford- money

2. The picture of the falling cat on page 191 is a person jumping from the World Trade Center on 9/11. Oskar talks about how cats can save themselves from terminal velocity, and that coupled with the reoccuring image of the jumper makes me believe that he admires that ability of the cats.
A metaphor is an indirect comparison of two things in order to describe something.
