McCain or Obama

If you could vote who would you vote for? Would you vote for grizzly bear McCain or would you vote for Democrat Obama. I think that they are not the best candidates ever it kind of risky voting for anyone of them. In my opinion I do not think McCain Stands a chance against Obama he is old, fat, and he is a republican and right now people do not really like republicans. The only thing that is going to help McCain is his Vice President she seems to be very popular with the people of America.
VOTE FOR McCain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beijing Olympics

The Beijing Olympics were a great success for the Chinese I think they impressed everyone with there technology and there fancy fireworks. I think the Chinese will be a very important role in our future they are a very wealthy country. America gets a lot of things from China we get food and lots of toys from China. China is going to be a fierce country that we better stay friends with so we do not get into World War III.

What a Girl Wants From a Boy

Well that is kind of hard for me to know. I think that girls want a boy that is kind, someone who will open the door for them or carry their books. They would probably even want a boy that is nice to other people. Another characteristic that girls would like is a boy with a good sense of humor, someone that makes them laugh a lot and makes them feel good. I also think that girls like boys that are smart and have good grades.

Please share your ideas and any other comments you might have.

GunPowder or Printing Press? What do you think?

I have to say that they are both very important inventions they build upon each other, but if I had to choose I would choose gunpowder. Because without gun powder we would not have had great accomplishments in war we would have been slaughtered like the Indians because they had no gunpowder. I decided to look up some more information on gunpowder and I found some interesting facts that you might like to know here are some examples. Gunpowder is one of great historical importance in chemistry it puts the boom in chemistry!
We would not have a greater knowledge of chemistry without gunpowder we would not have some of the awesome labs that we have today. Gunpowder also helped end wars faster; it used to take countries years to win wars like the Trojan war for example that war lasted some what ten or eleven years, and if they would have had gunpowder the war could have ended faster. I also found out that the Chinese started making rockets, guns, and cannons as soon as they found out about gunpowder. Think about it gunpowder helped us invent space shuttles if the Chinese had never invented fireworks and rockets than we would not have had a lot of information about space.

Islam Project

For my Islam project I decided to teach my family more about Muslim religion and to pray five times a day. Praying five times a day was kind of hard I usually do not pray by myself that many times. Me and my family pray together on our meals and I have my own prayer in the morning and at night. it made me realize how devoted the Muslims have to be in order to pray to Allah five times a day it made me want to be more devoted to my own religion.

should religion ever be used as a reason for war?

Most of us have all heard of 9/11 and the terrorist involved and some of us know about pearl harbor and the bombings from japan. Well I want to know why there religion tells them that if they go commit suicide and kill someone in the process that god will bless them in the after life? even though they know it is bad to kill they actually believe that their god will bless them for killing his people? please tell me what you think

Beo-Wulf!!!!

Beo-Wulf was an awesome book I thought it was one of the best pieces of literature I have ever read. One thing that really impressed me was how well the writer explained thing in the story the writer made you think about a lot of stuff.

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me Too

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too,
Went for a ride in a flying shoe,
"Hooray!"
"What fun!"
"It's time we flew!"
Said Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle was captain, Pickle was crew,
And Tickle served coffee and mulligan stew
As higher
And higher
And higher they flew,
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too,
Over the sun and beyond the blue. "
Hold on!"
"Stay in!"
"I hope we do!"
Cried Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too
Never returned to the world they knew,
And nobody
knows what's
happened to
Dear Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Written by Shel Silverstein (1930-1999)

My beard grows to my toes;
I never wear no clothes;
I wrap my beard around my bares
