Historical Shoutout !!!

 

When was the last time that the U.S. was thinking about going to war with Iraq?????

The last time the U.S. was thinking about going to war was when our current President's father was in office.

I chose this topic because I believe that the U.S. should have gone to war when we had a chance.

Lindsay's Christmas Wish

 

My Christmas wish for the world is for everyone to have money to pay for gifts and their Christmas dinner.

 

What is your Christmas wish for the world?

Correct Me Not!!!!

 Last week we discussed the future technology and our homework was to write about a future invention that would be very useful.

 

          Teachers always have a difficult time grading papers. Some teachers grade hundreds of papers a night.The Correct Me Not would help grade papers. The C.M.N(correct me not) is solar powered so it does not pollute the earth.C.M.N. grades 5 papers a minute talk about easy work.Your pobably wondering how a robot has a brain. The present technology makes it where you can digitally scan words and numbers and the computer programs in a robot can read the document.This robot is also not space consuming.It is 3'x3'so if you have a small classroom you would have space for the C.M.N. When C.M.N. comes out it will cost a $100.00. I think the Correct Me Not will be very useful many years to come.

Women Demand Rights to Golf!

Are womens rights being violated at the Masters Golf Turnament? The Masters Golf  Tournament Is Known for the famous Tiger Woods. Masters is in Augusta ,Georgia. Men at Masters say that women were never allowed in and never should be .

   The women that want to play at Masters say that they could play better than the men any day . Most of the women qualify to play. I believe they should form their own organazation to play. Should the women be allowed to play?

Questions to Ponder

It's Smoking

 

1.     Many people say that movies with smoking influence smoking because people look up to the stars. Most kids have more sense then that to go off and smoke a pack of cigarettes because their role models do and are still handsome or beautiful it should be OK .Should these movies be rated R?

 

2.     Have you heard about Winona Ryder? She stole over $5000 in merchandise at a store in Beverly Hills She has been tried and found guilty. How long do you think she should be in jail?

 

 

Weapon Inspections in Iraq

 

 

3.     The U.S. is going to Iraq. We are going because we need to know whether or not Iraq has weapons of mass destruction? These weapons could be nuclear weapons. Do you think Iraq has these kinds of weapons?
