website

Today i met the group in the library to create our website. I think it is going well. We have a section for videos, pictures, and games. We also have a fun fact,thesis, and works cited section. I downloaded the pictures of animals breastfeeding in nature to go with our main theme-let nature nurture.We also have an 'about me' section where we write our own thoughts and a little bit about ourselves. Another section is where people can post their own thoughts about the site and breastfeeding making the website more involved.

healthcare

The other day i viewed on yahoo(best ever!) that the house passes the national healthcare bill. I like this. Don't get me wrong, i dont like taxes either. but i think in the long run that maybe it will be a good thing.
some argue,"why should i pay more for some hobo on the street corner to get healthcare?" well, if you were that hobo wouyldn't you want healthcare? if you don't have anything don't you at least want your health? People who have healthcare already take it for granted. for some horrible reason, i dont wish this on anyone, what if you or someone you loved got cancer and insurance companies decided you were too expensive to help with medical bills, so they cut you off. not everyone has money, and those bills are expensive. this is a reason many people become homeless, jobless, and families break up because of this. wouldn't you like to know that no matter what your friends and family are getting taken care of because of national healthcare?
plus, if those hobos are healthier, they can get a job and contribute to society.
It would be just like donating to a charity. even with most charities, you never know if what you donated actually gets to who you think its for.
can't we all just get along.
quit being jerks please. thank you.
p.s. i hate politics.

google it.

yahoo is by far a better home page than google. Google is just a search bar but, yahoo has current events and usually very interesting articles about random things. Its a good way to procrastinate or, find out some news, or learn something totally wierd. google is just boring. the coolest thing about it is the name google. For real, yahoo expands your mind while google takes you directly to facebook wasting your life. try it out sometime.

records

i am a big fan of records even though they are very archaic. i think they are secretly magic. how does one really long groove carved into a piece of plastic create the sound of any music when a needle touches it? it is just amazing to me. I love my records and record player. I am sad that it was way too big to bring with me. theyre more impressive that an ipod or something. yeah you can fit a million songs in a little chip but dude, records are just awesome. the best quality sound comes out of records. also casettes(not as beast but pretty cool). the best records are used ones that you find for like eight bucks at used music stores. Theres this place in my hood called The Gig that has walls and walls of cassettes and cd's and a billion bins of records. it sucks that like every beatles recor is like sixty bucks!!! yeah, i know im wierd because i buy records when i could easily likewire some music for free. that pitnt is, records are art. and it reminds me of a simpler and triiper time!

blogging

So, i feel like since this is an english class assignment that a blog is a really awkward thing to write. This is because i feel like i should write al ice and proper but, its a blog and its hard to not write how i talk. Also, i think i just rant in all of my blogs is that what im supposed to do? i feel like foamy the squirrel.

Muy Importante!!! i saw that movie Paranormal Activity. not impressed or scared in the least bit. i cant believe people were scared by this. when people say, "i had to sleep with the lights on!" i just want to laugh in their faces. Lets get a few things strait; i acutally like crappy horror movies and i didnt like this one. AND i was super stoked about it.way over hyped. the blair witch project was better than this. while watching it i was litterally in the theater checking the clock to see how much longer it was gonna be. that is a sign of a boring movie. the whole first hour and a half was soooooo boring. the last fifteen minutes was the only semi-interesting part of the movie. i cant freakin believe people were genuinely terrified after seeing this.

aaaaannnnnd, a (stupid) friend of mine tried to convince me that it was real. and thats why there wasnt any credits at the end of the movie because they found the tape. yeah freakin right. thats freakin ridonkulus. people need to grow brains. i can grow one for you. in a petri dish. fa sho.

Halloween!!!

Happy halloween to all. this is the greatest holiday ever. It does not have some secret meaning or conspiracy behind it. well, besides the folks that dont make their costumes and the devils at the Hallmark card company. Really now, you can make your own extremely slutty costume. My costume costed me approximately ten dollars to make and it is just as slutty if not more and more origional than those cheap...not so cheap $30 costumes at the store.
furthermore, why would you send someone a card on halloween anyways? throw some candy at them, or make the card. that says hey, i care enough to make an embarrassingly crappy card with my own two hands.
Jack-o lanturns!!! tis a must do for halloween traditions. pumpkin carving is a form of art and should be treated as such; and like all art tis subjective. so, even if you fail at life, make a jack o lanturn, its fun!
ps. fall =best season ever!

What's Chocolate, Australian, and Not the Easter Bunny?

so, this article is about australia and an endangered species living there called the bilby. It a marsupial that is realatet to bunnies. Part of the reason they are endangered is because bunnies have overpopulated the land kicking out the bilby. Thomas austin released twenty four rabbits on his property one day to hunt them for sport. After twenty years they have over populated and are now Australia's number one pest. Bunnies damage the land and create deserts by eating all the plants. Since the bunny is killing the bilby, Australia decided to adopt the Bilby in place of the easter bunny. Instead of chocolate bunnies, there are chocolate Bilbys. Funds from the sale of the chocolate bilbys go towards helping the endangered animals.

I think it is good that they are trying to save the species and it was very unresponsible to release a foreign animal onto Australia. And now bunnies are pests. Karma man, karma. Bilbys are pretty cute, they're like a mix between rats and bunnies.
