talking body parts!

I've had lots of spare time lately. That's one reason I've been posting alot lately. Plus I've had lots of things stored up that I haden't had a chance to write about. Some have been scary, funny, or disturbing, or cool. I like to talk about a variety of things. Anyways here is something funny my teacher, I think my English teacher showed us. I think it was when we were talking about ironic things or something. He got these pictures and added his own captions.

$40,000 stolen, cat killed

Our neighbourhood is usually pretty peaceful. This afternoon however, our neighbour's pit bull dogs were running lose. One of the dogs came to our yard and started playing with our dog and he was friendly and didn't attack my sister or anything. My mom and dad were outside warning people about the dogs and trying to keep the dogs from attacking people. Since the schoolchildren children were coming home on the bus soon my mom went down to the bus stop to warn the kids about the dogs.
No one was hurt but the dogs were acting aggressive. The dogs tried to attack my dad so he got out his gun and shot the ground to scare the dog away. Across the street, a man told my sister that a dog also tried to attack him and that he had to defend himself with a stick.
When the police finally arrived, 2 hours after they were called, the man who owned the dogs got home. His back glass door was broken and that's how the robbers got in and the dogs got out. He had been robbed earlier in the week, must have been Sunday or Monday. The robbers stole $40,000 from his vault and a valuable diamond ring. They had also killed his cat. He locked his dogs up in the garage and blocked the door with a very heavy rock. We think that the robber came back to the house and let the dogs lose today.

We have a suspicion that whoever robbed the house was male because the dogs tried to attack the men.

Robbery!?? Across the street!!?? for real?

yikes! We thought the dogs knocked down the door but come to think of it that was kinda ridiculous. Details of the lose dogs are still sketchy, but we'll keep you posted.

some funny cartoons

I was thinking if I did my persuasive essay on evolution I could include this cartoon about computers! :)

A funnier joke

I know the last two jokes were Blondie jokes. I don't really think Blondie jokes are usually funny but those were some that were new and funny to me. Anyways.

I have to tell you about this joke my friend Korah told me. I changed it a little, added a few things to it but it's basically the same as she told me. She told it sooooo funny! I was laughing so hard! And she was too oh you should hear her laugh it's so contagious. Anyways, maybe sometime I'll record her telling this joke. But for now this will have to do.

A small zoo had some gorillas. One day their last gorilla died. The gorillas were one of the main attractions to the zoo and they didn't want to lose costumers so they devised a sneaky little plan. They made a gorilla costume and put it on one of their employees. "Just act like a gorilla and don't eat any gross food they throw at you, but you can eat the peanuts, and you should be pretty believable". So he pretended to be a gorilla and had a fun time eating the peanuts people threw. The first day went fine. At the end of the day he went home. The next day he came back. It was fun just laying around eating peanuts the first day but the people were getting bored and not throwing very many peanuts. So he decided to climb a tree and attract more people's attention. That made people notice him and soon peanuts were flying everywhere. When he ate up all those peanuts he decided to swing from a vine. So he climbed the tree again, grabbed onto the vine and started swinging really far. He was actually having lots of fun! Then he swung a little too far, the vine broke, and he landed in the next exhibit, the LION exhibit!

The man (in the gorilla costume) was so scared. He started screaming "don't eat me don't eat me I'm not a gorilla."

The lion ran over really fast, and pounced on him. The man screamed really loud. The lion put his paw over the man's mouth. "Shut up, you want us to both be fired?" the lion said.

:) hehehaha

A lady was shopping at Target and came across a shiny silver thermos. She was quite fascinated by it, so she picked it up and took it to the clerk to ask what it was. The clerk said, 'Why , that's a thermos.....it keeps hot things hot, and cold things cold.' 'Wow,' said the lady, 'that's amazing.! ...I'm going to buy it! So she bought the thermos and took it to work the next day. Her boss saw it on her desk. 'What's that,' he asked? 'Why, that's a thermos.... it keeps hot things hot and cold things cold,' she replied. Her boss inquired, 'What do you have in it?'? The lady replied........'Two popsicles and some coffee' :)

You just have to smile :)

upside down nails

Carol and Donna were doing some carpenter work on a Habitat for Humanity house. Carol, who was nailing down house siding, would reach into her nail pouch, pull out a nail and either toss it over her shoulder or nail it in. Donna, figuring this was worth looking into, asked,'Why are you throwing those nails away?'? Carol explained, 'When I pull a nail out of my pouch, about half of them have the head on the wrong end and I throw them away.' Donna got completely upset and yelled, Those nails aren't defective! They're for the other side of the house!'

Well I guess it's just how you look at things! lol :)

Don Marco

A friend of mine sent me a forward about an amazing artist.
Don Marco was born in Northern Minnesota in the late 1920's. His interest in art was evident even before starting school. As a young adult in the Army Air Corp, he began his life's career in Air Traffic Control, which continued until his retirement from Honolulu International Airport in 1973. Much of his spare time was spent as a professional artist. Before retirement, Don started developing a technique to create fine art, using Crayola Crayons. Shortly after retiring, he published his first print. Living in Southern California, his work was in demand, including commissions from Burt Reynolds and a one-man show at his Dinner Theater in Florida .

Here are just a few samples...

Persuasive ESSAY!!! Yikes!

For English class I need to write a persuasive essay. It should be 2-3 pages long. Of course I'll probably just end up doing 2 pages. I need to come up with a topic and I have no idea what it should be. So give me some ideas!

Maybe something we disagree on, and I can persuade you otherwise! lol

~~ update >>> I've come up with 4 different topics. So please vote on the poll. Thanks! If you have another topic you can still suggest a it.

Another Birthday

Today is my sister's birthday. She is now 3.7417 x 3.7417 well about that anyways she is 14!! In 2 more months I'll be 4x4.

So you're probably wondering what I got my sis for her bday. Well I got her a $20 watch for Christmas and she didn't get me anything!! :0 so anyways the watch is for Christmas and her bday. I'm like now you're going to have to get me a big bday present to make up for it! :)

No more politics, just think!

Are you democratic or Republican? Are you conservative or liberal? Do you think abortion should be illegal? Are Republicans for or aganist gun control? What are your views? These are some of the questions I've been asking myself in Civics class. It is so good to think that in heaven we won't have to deal with all this mess anymore, never again. Well this class ends on the 24th I think so then I'll be moving on to PA history. Which will be pretty cool I think. But won't it be even more cool when we get to heaven we'll study everythings history and we'll have all the facts at our fingertips and be able to ask God questions, and always get a sure answer because he knows all and sees all. God Bless!

By the way I decided I'm a Conservative Republican and I'm aganist abortion (of course, those poor babies!) and for gun control! yeah!

Getting ready for Christmas!

We’ve had several snow falls, but the snow is mostly melted now, since it rained a lot yesterday. I wish we could have a white Christmas, but it doesn’t look like we are going too. It is 43 after all.
Tomorrow is Christmas! I have been really enjoying my Christmas break. And all the preparations are almost complete!
The Tree

Cupcakes
Chocolate "Greek" pie

"Greek" stuffed peppers

Red and Green for Christmas

We'll be making greek pizza tomorrow. I'll probably post the recipe and pics when we actually make it. You make it with pita bread and spinach and a special kind of cheese and red peppers, so it's green and red too. More later...

SIGN IN A STORE WINDOW

This sign was prominently displayed in the window of a business in Philadelphia . You are probably outraged at the thought of such an inflammatory statement. However, we are a society which holds Freedom of Speech as perhaps our greatest liberty. And after all, it is just a sign. You may ask what kind of business would dare post such a sign.

Answer: A Funeral Home (Who said morticians had no sense of humor?) You gotta love it!

God Bless America

Getting Better

I had a cold last week and had to skip some school. But I'm getting better and plugging along in my schoolwork this week. I can't beleieve Christmas is so soon! Here is a picture of our tree:

wow

I can't BELIEVE it's only 15 days until Christmas!

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I woke up Saturday morning, tumbled out of bed, went to the closet to get dressed for church. I came out and Mandy was crying soooo hard. My mom came in the room teary eyed, and sat on my bed. She told me she had bad news and I should sit down. Jeffery died. I was in shock. We took him to the vet just last Thursday for some medicine for his mites. He was supposed to get better, not DIE!!!!! How could this happen? I started crying, and kept crying and didn't even have a bite for breakfast. I just sat on the couch and stared out the window. Lanaya and Brentley didn't cry. They didn't even seem sad. They just accepted the fact that rabbits die. But he was sooo young! just a 2yr old bunny. They must not have been very attached to him. So we finally got on our way to church and got there just as the choir was starting to sing. But I couldn't sing, neither could my sister. So just my mom went up. We didn't even go into the sanctuary. We just sat in the nursery and listened to the sermon from there. The people were all sad to hear that our rabbit had died, but the choir director didn't even care! She didn't even care! All she cared about was that we were going to sing in choir! She doesn't care if we have a good time. She doesn't care if we want to. She just doesn't care about anyone except if she looks like a good choir director in front of the whole church. Well guess what, I'm not doing choir next year. I like to sing but I hate the songs she picks, she picked the same one we did last year! We definitely did a better job last year, and she even had a neat little skit to go along with it. But she made the angels, my sis mandy and gabby, hold their arms up in the air for a whole 30 minutes! That was just cruel!!!!! And tshe made us all squish together and stand on a small step. AND we have to wear these STUPID BLUEBERRY GOWNS to sing in!!!! I almost fainted I was so over heated. And they are so dorky and they aren't long enough, but mine is too long for most of the people! I'm taller then most of the people in church, only 1 of the boys is taller then me and my mom and I are the tallest ladies in the whole church. Whenever I'm around the growups they're always commenting on my height!! It is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO annoying!!!! I like being tall, but why do they have to make it such a big deal? And then we went down to sabbath school. And of all things Linda had to use "losing a pet" as an example. And pretty soon everyone was talking about the hamster that died etc etc. Of all days to talk about such a thing. Then the teacher had to use Josh as an example and pick on his height. So he went over to the Junior class and they said he was too tall for them and so he went to Primary and they let him stay. Poor Josh. I don't think he's really short and he is really smart and has such nice curly black hair. His mom is from Brazil. We had to stay at church all day to "save gas". Mandy and gabby practied their piece for the talent show like 1000 times, whoops put 2 2 many 0s in there. lol. They practiced more then the instruments who played along with choir! And mandy and I practiced our piece 2 times. And about the choir, I have a terrible cold, and my voice is just about gone now. So I like lipped some of the high notes I couldn't hit. Noone could tell of course because the silly trumpets and trombones drowned our voices out. lol. Not that they sounded much better. The best part of the whole day was when Mandy and I played "The First Noel" with mandy on piano and me on violin. We did it without music (of course) and then at the end, when the people we done clapping my mom stood up and told everyone that we taught ourselves how to play and that we had never had any lessons. Then we had the white elephant gift exchange. I ended up with some stupid yellow slippers with blue dogs on them and some medium size ladies work gloves that are too small for me or my mom or my sister so they're no good. My sister got some mint m&ms that she shared 1/8c with me. lol. My dad got a corvette! Yeah right, it was some type of silly joke. It was an ancient old beat up bike with corvette written on it. Don't know HOW he's going to get it home or if he even wants it. I don't know if it has any value to it since it is rusty and banged up. But it's probably more then 4 decades old. lol.
sorry for not using proper paragraphs.
Last night I cryed so much I couldn't get to sleep until like midnight. Then I had to get up at 7:30 this morning. Haven't had breakfast yet... wonder what I should go eat.. well better let you go now, this has probably been the longest post yet! bye
