When Johnny comes marching home again,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
We'll give him a hearty welcome then
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The men will cheer and the boys will shout
The ladies they will all turn out
And we'll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home.
The old church bell will peal with joy
Hurrah! Hurrah!
To welcome home our darling boy,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The village lads and lassies say
With roses they will strew the way,
And we'll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home.
Get ready for the Jubilee,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
We'll give the hero three times three,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The laurel wreath is ready now
To place upon his loyal brow
And we'll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home.
Let love and friendship on that day,
Hurrah, hurrah!
Their choicest pleasures then display,
Hurrah, hurrah!
And let each one perform some part,
To fill with joy the warrior's heart,
And we'll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home

First:
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.
Last:
It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

I would have definitely acted quickly and have done something! Rather than procrastinating, waiting until the last minute, to act.
241
The first thing that I would have done, is have the men check how deep the water was! Even though the men might have died, I would have made them swim through the water. Although, that is what the men were there for, to fight.

It was really nasty. We could have the prisoners clean up the place and we could train them top be housekeepers. We could make them eat in their cell instead of a cafeteria and we could make the prisoners wash their own clothes.

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.
CHORUS
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

If Lincoln were never president then slavery might still be going on. People might lie more since there was no idol about lying. (honest abe)

Maryland, My Maryland
I
The despot's heel is on thy shore,
Maryland!
His torch is at thy temple door,
Maryland!
Avenge the patriotic gore
That flecked the streets of Baltimore,
And be the battle queen of yore,
Maryland! My Maryland!
II
Hark to an exiled son's appeal,
Maryland!
My Mother State! to thee I kneel,
Maryland!
For life or death, for woe or weal,
Thy peerless chivalry reveal,
And gird thy beauteous limbs with steel,
Maryland! My Maryland!
III
Thou wilt not cower in the dust,
Maryland!
Thy beaming sword shall never rust,
Maryland!
Remember Carroll's sacred trust,
Remember Howard's warlike thrust,-
And all thy slumberers with the just,
Maryland! My Maryland!
IV
Come! 'tis the red dawn of the day,
Maryland!
Come with thy panoplied array,
Maryland!
With Ringgold's spirit for the fray,
With Watson's blood at Monterey,
With fearless Lowe and dashing May,
Maryland! My Maryland!
V
Come! for thy shield is bright and strong,
Maryland!
Come! for thy dalliance does thee wrong,
Maryland!
Come to thine own anointed throng,
Stalking with Liberty along,
And sing thy dauntless slogan song,
Maryland! My Maryland!
VI
Dear Mother! burst the tyrant's chain,
Maryland!
Virginia should not call in vain,
Maryland!
She meets her sisters on the plain-
Sic semper! 'tis the proud refrain
That baffles minions back amain,
Maryland!
Arise in majesty again,
Maryland! My Maryland!
VII
I see the blush upon thy cheek,
Maryland!
For thou wast ever bravely meek,
Maryland!
But lo! there surges forth a shriek,
From hill to hill, from creek to creek,
Potomac calls to Chesapeake,
Maryland! My Maryland!
VIII
Thou wilt not yield the Vandal toll,
Maryland!
Thou wilt not crook to his control,
Maryland!
Better the fire upon thee roll, Better the shot, the blade, the bowl,
Than crucifixion of the Soul,
Maryland! My Maryland!
IX
I hear the distant thunder-hum,
Maryland!
The Old Line bugle, fife, and drum,
Maryland!
She is not dead, nor deaf, nor dumb-
Huzza! She spurns the Northern scum!
She breathes! She burns! She'll come! She'll come!
Maryland! My Maryland!

I made a mistake because me WWP3-6 that says Dec.13 is supposed to be DEC.15
Dec.13
I would nominate Rosa Parks because, she got arrested for being brave and standing up for herself. She didn't give up her seat for a white man.
Dec.18
I think it took so long because people kept fighting back. Also, because no one was brave enough. But, Abe stood up for people. He believed that slavery was wrong and stopped it.

Age discrimination is when you are not allowed to do something because of your age. It could be that you are either too young or too old. One example is when a 15 year old has their permit to drive, but can not drive by themselves. I have definitely experienced age descrimination.
My first example of when I have experienced age descrimination is, at water or amusement parks. Well, on some rides you have to be a certain height. On others, you have to be a certain age.Also, when you want to drive someone else in a go cart ride, you have to be either 16 or 18, it depends on the place.

If someone were to write a book about my family and I, it would definitely be a comedy. It would be a comedy because my dad is crazy. If I were to pick the name of the book then it would be, "Living Life in the LeBlanc Lane!"

Survey on seperate sheet of paper. But, according to young people, most people picked either Taylor Laughnter or Patrick Dempsey. I guess it's still about the charm but also it's about looks and abs.

I wish I was in the land of cotton,
Old times they are not forgotten;
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land.
In Dixie Land where I was born,
Early on one frosty mornin,
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land.
Old Missus marry "Will-de-weaber,"
Willium was a gay deceaber;
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land.
But when he put his arm around'er,
He smiled as fierce as a forty-pound'er,
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land.
Dar's buck-wheat cakes an 'Ingen' batter,
Makes you fat or a little fatter;
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land.
Den hoe it down an scratch your grabble,
To Dixie land I'm bound to trabble.
Look away! Look away! Look away! Dixie Land.[15]

I would rather have only one leader because you won't really get to know someone if they are only there for one battle. Also, if you switch you are not use to your new leader's moves and strategies. Plus, you might not even like the new leader. Also, the leader has a very short time to get to know everyone.
The leader might not know your strategies or moves, either. If you are training then, the new leader won't know what lesson you are on at the time. The leader might teach you something you already know. Or, could do something that you have never learned before.
WWP3-1 Nov.2

easy to write
don't take that long
private(they are sealed envelopes)
pretty cheap
