If promethus was asked Do you think before you act he would respond sometimes. He would say this becouse he mustve known that he would be punished for giving the humans fire. But he made conseice decsion to help humans out. but i dont think he thought it out well enough. if he had he couldve escaped from zeus and still given us fire. I think promethus was a tad spontanus but still did think some before he acted.

government money -- 04-10-12

the government should spend its money on these three things, the military, state services (such as police, fire, and roads), and euducation. the reason the military and state serves should be funded is becouse they could not be privatized and should be part of the government. Now education should be funduded by the government but on a much lower budget becouse education can be easily privatized it should be. but for poorer familys education should still be an option so they should keep funding education but not quit to the extent it is currently.thats what the government should focuse on with education miltary and state serveces

professional athletes pay -- 04-10-12

2012-04-10T21:48:42-05:00

Many people think athletes are paid too much for the work they do. I agree that athletes do not provide an esentional role in soceity but yet do genarate all the money on their own with out taxpayers funding them.becouse of this its completly fair. If the athletes were paid very low then the managers would be super rich becouse peaple will still come to see the baseball game say and pay the same amount. Also if athletes wernt paid much then their would be even less charity donations becouse its more money with fewer people meaning that one greedy guy could keep much more money than 10 greedy athletes. Plus the only way to reduce the pay for athletes would be to boycott games witch would take millions of people together. obvoisly athletes are paid properly and it should stay that way.

holes in my sidewlak -- 02-19-12

Recently in LA we read a poem called holes in the sidewalk. this poem was about how we star doing things that are bad and create a pattern of doing so. A "hole in my sidewalk" would be when I was in third grade and did not do homework. at the begining of this poem the man does not see the hole and falls in. That can relate to my experince because the first time i didn't do my homework i wasn't aware of the consquences. the next line the man falls in the hole but pretends he dosn't see it and falls in. I pretended that i wouldn't get in trouble if i just missed one assignment .the final line the man does not fall in the hole instead he takes a diffrent street all together. I decided that 10 minutes of home work was better than being in trouble.

The Basic Neccesity -- 12-13-11

I could not live without food. First becouse its a neccesity and I could litterally not live without it. But say you could survive without food I would stil need it becouse without out it my world would be bleek and unintresting, I would hate my life, and ultamitly not ammount to anything. this differs from scrooge becouse he thinks he couldnt live without riches he despises those who disagree with him in this sense. but really he can live a meeger or poverty stricken life but he's terified of that typ of life thus making him selfesh and greedy.

an amazing setting to a closed story would be...it was a cold and eerie night and the clouds were coming in . Mrs Jackson was walking on the sidewalk sipping on a glass of tea. there was nothing to be heard exept the sound of a light hum. "were is he" she stated "its getting late." Almost as though he'd been waiting for her to say that a black cadiliac rolled up. she hoped in and started the conversation. "look i've dug up some dirt on lenord" she wisperd
"really whats that." said he " well i dogged his trail and i found him pull up at the victims house i heard some banging and then he left."
"thats pecullar did he take any thing"
"not that i know of"
just then the car started shaking back and forth the driver screemed then hit a tree.

fear -- 11-03-11

Fear affects us by making us think quickly and normaly ilogicly. Fear can trigger anger or sadness this is becouse of how we use the flight or fight response. Fight is normally corralated with anger and flight with saddness. Fear can also make us think diffrently. It can do this becouse we make hastey and rash desicions or dont think things through. Thats how fear affects us.
