You encounter arguments daily but probably do not notice them. Try to search examples of logical errors and/or examples of good syllogistic reasoning. There are plenty of instances on radio and television talk shows, in your local newspaper, and even in talks with your friends. Do not use instance from Internet Web sites which deal specifically with logic (even the examples could be from articles posted on the Internet or from blogs). Please respond to the following:

• Find at least five (5) "real-life" arguments which could be rewritten as syllogisms.
• In a sentence or two, describe the argument.
• Rewrite each argument as a syllogism.
• Explain whether the argument contains logical errors or is an example of good syllogistic reasoning.
