Attention all people that can or can not drive need to listen to this important notice about pollution. We all know about the spill in the golf of Mexico how much trouble BP is in and how America's beaches are drenched in oil but there is a side very few people looked in. It's the animals side everyone has seen the side where it's affecting the travel destinations but only one TV station(that I have seen) showed a glimpse of the marine life how it's suffering. The truth is that lots of lives are been lost as the oil spill spreads. But that not why I got your attention the reason is I want you to compare this to pollution the things we do every day like drive your kid or if you are sixteen you and your friends go to the mall and the most pollution is idling. When you idle you are using more gas than when you move for how much time you spend idling so I want you to know these simple things to save on pollution.
  1. carpool
  2. reduce idling
  3. take the bus once in a while
  4. walk more
  5. use row boats when on water
  6. or use low gas boats

Hi there I'm Billia, and my name is Daise we are two ladies that share something. Other women that are poor and their husbands are desperate for money do the same thing. Want to know they do well they go and help blow up mountings to build railroads. I know what a dangerous job! But what can I say we need the money but we also need our lives all the women say but the men just say we are in charge of supporting you and we do whatever it takes to give you money. I just say it's an life and death job. (You know these type of things were done in the late 1860's and we still do it today)

Once there was a man named sir John Evener he was going to replace king Raphfet. the people were happy until he became a servant.Cause he was the only one that the king trusted so John took advantage of the king by steeling meat from the brochure and robbing people. Many people went and complained to the king but the king just lies lies lies.So the cycle went on and on until the king had enough and declared a test. The test was simple everyone knew how ti goes,so they did it.Everybody expet John sank into the water. The king was very disappointed in John so he beheaded everybody was HAPPY the end.

I went to school today, and I got detention. For calling the supply teacher M.R. Nikapoop by accident. I had to stay after school and miss my show! But my best friend Meline came to me in my room and told me how a detention is in the pioneer times. Meline and I meet when I fell into the famous River of oldness. I was greeted in by Meline's mom Careline, she gave me food water and shelter. Then I talked with Meline and we became friends Meline was given the power to come to me any time she wanted to. Meline told me anytime the teacher wants to he or she can hit you with a ruler or make you wear a dunce hat with the word stupid wrote across it. Now I will appreciate my soft detentions well I got to go bye.

But I just sat there staring into space I was missing my friends and my family. My mom,Clarela and I fell into the famous river of oldness people thought that we went away and hid somewhere secret away from our family but I will never ever leave without leaving a letter and a picture. We fell into the pioneer times and we were put in different clothing and we had different designs and colors they were all tight at the stomach. ''Kids listen up today we are going to go and search for the river of the future'' said mom I didn't care all I want to do is put on some regular clothes and chat with my friends. That morning we found the river of the future and went home we were put right in the same way as before like nothing happened but we were the only ones that know what happened ( that's the secret of the river) well chow for now.

You are just sitting down you are sitting down playing your computer game then you go outside to go to the mall with your friends and you leave your computer game on. When you come you see that your computer has been sleeping all the time you had been at the mall your energy bill has raised and you are in distress. Never do that again your mom said but I forgot you say but it doesn't work. Your mom puts you in a class about saving energy and your allowance has decreased. You learned how not to leave your computer on while you are not using for periods of time. You are happy and you had fixed things by turning the computer off when you are not using it.
