"Oh No!!!!! Tsunami warning!!!!!!!" Chapter uno
It was a sunny afternoon as I walked into my office. My shift was over, but I had to get some papers. As I started to leave, I heard a strange noise coming from downstairs. approached the staircase, and the normally bright hallway turned dark. I grabbed my flashlight and went downstairs. The storage room was normal. I went home in my not-prius, pondering about what had happened. i saw a note to myself on the walll, "Get a not-prius", and I had it! Walls! I had never seen the walls of the Storage room, thanks to large boxes. rushed back in my not-prius and went back downstairs. I found a clue to what was making the noise.

He has 10-foot platform shoes. And he has Austin Powers Style Clothes. Now he must Board The DISCO GHOST SHIP and find the SPOON OF RECOVERY, only to discover it has been sealed in JELLO OF DOOM! cool story, huh?
U2
There is a cool Irish band called U2. they started in the 80's when their drummer, Larry Mullen Jr., put up a poster to start a new band. several people came to auditions, but he soon had 5 new bandmembers. Their original name was "The Feedback". One of the people never came to practice again, and another one quit, so they only had 4 members. Now they have Bono, Their singer, Adam Clayton, Their Bassist, The Edge, Their Guitarist, And Good 'Ol Larry, Their drummer. To hear "Where The Streets Have No Name" Go to Brandons Blog And Listen and comment.

The Time Machine
77 The Time Machine

As I watched The Time Traveler disappear, I noticed A piece of paper on his desk. I picked it up and held on to it for three years.
When I thought I should attempt it, I opened the paper. It was a note saying, “I am headed to the year 30584. I shall return in 1935 your time.”
I now realized I would not worry about him or his stuff. I set off at once to his workshop. I rummaged through his papers and found his time machine plans. I set off to start building another.
It was excruciatingly difficult to find all the parts for the levers and pulleys. Seven years later, I had it.
I set the contraption to 30584. I pulled the lever and felt the strangest sensations. Looking out the window, I saw buildings fall and become replaced with futuristic buildings of shiny silver.I saw hovering automobiles. The machine came to a slow stop, and I cautiously dismounted.
In my 19th century clothing, I hardly fitted in. Everybody looked as if they came from space! Looking for a familiar face, I saw red hair.
“Eureka!” I exclaimed out loud, for it was the time traveler! We caught up, him asking how I got here, and why I came, And myself asking myself Why I had ever doubted him about time travel.
78 The Time Machine
As he was telling me about the bizarre weather in the land of the Giant Crabs, he pointed to the west where the sun had been. With that notion, he gave a yelp of horror, as a Giant Morlock was attached to the bottom of a flying car. He calculated in his head that a single Morlock had clung to the time machines underside, away from vision and sunlight. And It was growing huge of the car’s fumes.
It could resist sunlight, as it dropped from the car and chased us. We split up and agreed to meet back in our time. I ran to where I had landed, and several curious passerby were examining and analyzing it. I pushed them down and set the machine back to our time.
I saw the Morlock disappear in a flash as the silvery buildings regained the more rustic look of our time. Once I had dismounted, I went to the time travelers workshop and sure enough, he was here. We were pondering about what had happened. The Morlock was big enough to take down a full-grown elephant. It had most likely taken over the city, But the world may never know.

You are going to visit sport stadiums, neighborhoods, encounter shady characters, traverse large canyons, climb trees, travel to the moon, wrestle a bear, set the world record for corn husking, leap tall buildings, get braces, repeat hig school, and rob a bank. although i will not use all these themes, It will still be a very large and good game.
Knight rider
Two weeks ago, I watched the new version of Knight Rider on tv. For those of you who are not familiar with Knight Rider, It is aTV show About a Very hi-tech talking car called K.I.T.T. The person who drives it is named mike and is called the Knight Rider, hence the title. It was originally an '80's TV show. The old mike, (David Hasselhoff) and K.I.T.T (Knight Industries two thousand) drove around solving crimes.In the new one, the new mike and Knight Industries Three Thousand have bigger mysteries to solve. K.I.T.T. has tools like grappel hook, super pursuit mode, and a bullet-proof and indestructable black paint job. The original K.I.T.T. was a chevy, but the new one is is a ford sheby mustang. In the new one, David Hasselhoff plays a cameo and shows up as the new mikes dad.

For the new band concert, March 11th, the 8th grade band is playing Ghost Fleet and Overature for winds. Both songs do a good job bringing out all the parts of all the instruments. Ghost fleet is about the James river reserve fleet coming back to life and heading out to the high seas as ghosts. Overature for winds is a bouncy ensomble and Baritone gets a 4-line solo! As one of the last people in band, I ask you people to come.
Bjorke Bjorke Bjorke Bjorke Bjorke
My interactive fiction is going to be called Bjorke. It will be a strategy-like game where you use tools and hints to get farther. there are going to be several beasts. You must kill them with your sword. You are going to get many tools such as bombs and the ball and chain, both used to break down walls. First you must find and rescue the king and queen, and then find and kill the Main Bad Guy. I would tell you the plot twist, but it would give away to much. You have to play through the game to find out.

Call of the wild essay
Daniel Estill
American studies
Call of the Wild
I read the legendary novel Call of the Wild, by Jack London, and I really liked it. To help organize my feelings about the book, I will write a 5-paragraph essay about three phases in Buck, the main character/dog’s life.
The first phase in Buck’s life was when he lived at his original owner’s house. His ‘Master’ was a judge simply called Judge Miller. He lived a very relaxing life, and the only work he had to do was protect his yard from neighbor dogs. It was like this until the gardener sold him to two French men seeking fortune from the Alaskan Gold Rush, which leads into the next phase of his life.
As a spoiled dog, Buck did not know how to survive in the harsh arctic. This is why he learned from other dogs. He learned to make a sleeping hole by stumbling into another dog’s. But some things he had to learn from experience, like not to do bad things or he would get whipped. And not to attack Francois and Perrault, or he would get beaten with the club. After he killed spitz, he approached the last transformation into the final phase.
The final phase of Buck’s life, he was a natural leader. He kept everyone in order as lead dog, and led the team through harsh conditions. He never lost a fight, and was very strong. He could even pull a 1000-pound sled! After his favorite owner, John Thornton was killed, he became a dog of the wild. Thus concludes the story of Buck the sled dog.
I Thought that the novel Call of the wild was easily one of the best books I have ever read. I would Highly recommend it to anyone who likes great adventure classics.
