scandal


I really just needed to share this picture. It was on one of AOL's news centers. If you just glance at it...

oh, what are men to rocks and mounains?

The woods were amazing monday. After every rain a mist would settle just below the brambles. It was spectacular. 60 degees in Febuary, wow. What a wonderful gift is a warm day in winter.

The Great Catsby


While reading The Great Gatsby for school my friend, Abigail, decided her next pet will be named Gatsby. I think it's a wonderful name for a dog, it will be the name of my first dog. While discussing this we caught the attention of my English teacher who revealed to us that she, and several other english teachers, also feel Gatsby is the perfect name for a dog. I wonder what such a creature would look like? The instumental Airedale of the novel? Well "undoubtedly there was an Airedale concerned in it somewhere, though its feet were startlingly white," still "a dog that'll never bother you with catching cold." We could stick to the "Great" adjective and go with Great Dane. Maybe a poodle, mixed with something ordinary, lik a pug. Pugapoo?

S.O.S. v1.4: Of Secrets and Sliderules

sorry...

Dear Marc,
Upon finding this, you must have found that it occupies the place of your now missing sliderule. I apologize for taking it, along with various other items among your belongings. I've neglected the favor of making you a list simply because I am not sure what i will need on my journey. I travel south to a place you may well know. Actually, it is thanks to you that I will now be enrolled in school as Marc Redstone the Second. I appreciate all you have taught me these few years. You have done me many services, but I need to ask you for one more. My father will be distressed at my disappearance. I must ask you to send word to him that I have eloped. That prospect will make him very happy as well as keep you and Mammy out of trouble. Tell him it was a rich handsome gentleman like he always wanted for his only daughter. You might even suggest it was by your friendship I came to know this gentleman of repute. This might finally sway father to sponsor you in your dream of moving west. I hope to see you again, but as for now know that you have sponsored my dreams; Marc's, rather my, studies begin in two weeks. Forever in your debt, and forever your friend. -Dot

"That's it!" said Marc when he finished? "You can't just ride off like usual and make me pick up the slack!"
Dot faltered at his uncharacteristic agressiveness.
"I at least deserve a better explanation, or one last conversation, you owe me that much Dot... there is so much I've been wanting to talk about with you.." said Marc, falling back into his usual submissiveness.

S.O.S. v1.3

I'm terribly sorry, this is a historical soap opera ;). I have seen and held an actual sliderule. I must qualify as an archiologist now. Research has suggested that the ancient people, engineerious computerlous, might have worn them on their belt loops around their habitat of college campus.

Unfortunatly for Marc, though Dot had once dreamed of the place she found herself now, that dream had long since been replaced by those of real and substantial value. Being a quick girl, she decided she should give him back his sliderule-and that is what Marc found as he leaned forward. Dot regained her balance and finished her pillage while marc remained, once again, debilitated. "Are you going to let me have the sliderule?" she asked, or do I need to steal one?"Coming out of his stupour, Marc could only ask why she needed one to begin with. Gaining momentum, he sent a biraid of questions at her, not pausing for answers. Lacking the enthusiasm to counter his attack, she merely handed him the note she had written for him hours earlier.
