Picture 11
The story begins with a few children. These children would always run around and play but they never felt that cool. The reason they didn't feel cool was because they didn't have super awesome mustaches like their fathers. One day they all decided they were going to be cooler than their fathers and were going to have the best mustaches ever.
Many years later they had all kept their promise to themselves about having the best mustaches ever. After years of differant styles of mustaches and differant sorts of facial hair in general they had decided to enter a competition for the greatest group of mustaches ever. This picture was taken on their way to the final competition which they won with flying colors.

The picture shows the courage in our law enforcement. It looks like a normal picture at first, but when you look closely and read the captions, you can tell much about the picture. It shows the great amount of respect officers have for each other, and how they don't see each other as co-workers, but as brothers out in the battlefield, and how they have each of there "brothers" backs. When one unfortunately passes, they are all there for each other honoring them like a brother, a hero, and a true hard working american. I chose this picture not to entertain people, or to get a couple laughs out of some people, but it was to show that things like this shouldn't just be passed on day after day, people should recognize it, and honor the people that serve and protect. I think that is why msnbc choose that picture to add into there slide show, because it is an important thing that is overlooked and people who honor our police officers, they are the patriotic americans.

A Load of Bull
The story starts with a couple of guys walking down the street. All the sudden a larger group of guys run by and then the first guy saw the bull. It chased them for a few blocks. Finally one of the guys got the horns. This gave the rest of them a chance to get ahead a little. This happen a couple of times then they got pinned on top of a car. They were trying to trick it into going after someone else but it wouldn't leave. Then one guy bolted away to save the rest of them. The end.

Brilliant story Kaleb. It kept me in suspense all the way to the end. It is truly brilliant. The story was entertaining, yet rich in words. You should definetly publish it in the New York Times. I'm sure the United States and the rest of the world would be delighted to read your story. The guy in your story should be given a medal of honor. If there is a book that's called "how to survive a bull attack" the story should be added to the book.

Picture 1
Tonight on the Biggest Loser...... The mother-daughter round commences with a cold water swim in Chesapeake Bay. We start with the first weigh-ins. After, a cold water swim with Jillian jumpstarts the contestants' diet and exercise plans. Then, Linda-Mae and daughters Bailee-Ann and Trixie-Lynn face elimination. All tonight, on the Biggest Loser! (paid for by Jillian Michaels and NBC)

Other option:
Yellow Suit- "I look so fat right now."
Black Suit- "Same-- how embarrassing would it be if that photographer posted this for all the world to see"
Yellow Suit- "Ha! I know right? But even if he does, I doubt it'll be on MSNBC or anything."
Black Suit- "So true! At least we know there wont be some random highschoolers looking at it"
Yellow Suit- "Yeah, how weird would that be?"
Black Suit- "Especially if they had to write stuff about it for homework and stuff."
Yellow Suit- "Good thing that'll never happen..."
Black Suit- "So did you hear about Maggie-Sue's nosejob?"

Arnold had been working at Little Bunny Foo Foo’s for 27 years exactly. When he got to work it was a normal day. He checked in with his boss, then went back to but of the Foo Foo bunny suit. When he was putting on the head he noticed a pokey thing in there. He immediately took the head off and looked inside, there was a note.

The note was circled up with a small rubber band around it. He opened the rubber band, he unrolled the note. There it sat the note. The not was written on a part of printer paper. Written in the hand writing of his boss the note said “YOUR FIRED”.

Gapping the bridge
It was really late at night, and the boat driver was falling asleep so he decided to drink caffeine to keep him awake. Then he decided to watch a movie because he was bored. He forgot to tell the co-captain to drive the boat while he was watching a movie so the boat was running over everything in its path. Right when they ran over a sailboat and then a whale, the captain realized no one was driving the boat. When he was about to walk to the steering wheel he fell asleep and fell and then they crashed into the bridge.

Co-Capt – Yeah. The maintenance here is finally listening to our requests.
Captain – Is is just me or are you getting sleepy?
Co-Capt – A little...
Security – Just because maintenance turned up the heater doesn’t mean you can relax. We’re about 20 miles away from the Lock and Dam Bridge and we need to steer under the correct part of the bridge.
Captain & Co-Capt – No worries. We aren’t relaxing at all.

I was sitting in the audience waiting for my time to shine. I was bored beyond belief. My mind was racing trying to figure out when would be the perfect time to throw the flour. The speaker was talking about why he was better then the other candidate. It seems to be the only thing these candidates are talking about.
He soon moved on to his opinions on taxing bakeries. The candidate started to get really into it and I knew it was my time to shine. I jumped up and threw the flour right at his face. The whole audience started throwing the flour with me. The cameras turned off and we all started laughing. The candidate ran away and kicked us all out. It turned out to be the best day ever.

It all began on a nice summer morning in Pakistan. Some of the local refugee kids decided to play hide n seek. A few of the boy’s gang up and decided to go and hide in a local makeshift tent. It was a great hiding spot, they could see out but no one could see in. The boys spent the whole time giggling and peaking out the holes in the tent making sure they were quiet when the seeker came by. After what felt like 30 minutes of hiding the seeker finally walked into the tent scaring us all. The rest of the day the boys played in the tent laughing and having a good time.

Steve was the driver of the ship and was usually on task. One day, his friend on the ship brought his deck of cards with him and asked Steve several times if he wanted to play. Steve constantly told him, “no.” Eventually, Steve turned and saw the co-captain of the ship asleep and thought he would wake up soon so he could just wait a few minutes.

During that time, Steve’s friend kept asking him if he wanted to play cards and was saying that no one had ever beaten him before. As a result, Steve told his friend, “Fine, one game,” and he went over to where he was playing. So, Steve played in the first game, which they both agreed the winner won $5. Steve lost and then told his friend, “double or nothing.” Eventually, the two played again and again and Steve totally forgot about his job of driving the ship until they heard a loud sound and then he remembered instantly. But, it was too late and the ship had crashed into the bridge.

I can see why skiing is a competitive sport. But snowboarding is more m thing. I always thought It was just riding through the snow with 2 sticks on your feet.

My story is about A chicken crosses the road in rural Douglas County near Oakland. On a sunny day somewhere outside the simple town of Honeyville, a young boy lay in the tall pastures inside the family farm fence where the cows would nom on grass. The boy heard the high pitched sound of his mother's bell and imediately knew it was time to feed the chickens. He picked up the sack of feed and opened the fence to the pen. He gave them just enough feed for almost all of them. Almost. One chiicken was left out. Insulted, he strolled out the gate with pride seeking a new home. He traveled near and far through brutal terrain. After many days, he happened to cross a road when all of a sudden, he realized the meaning of life and why all life is where it is today. He ran back to the farm as fast as he could only to realize why he had left in the first place.

My story is about a couple of kids that are poor and they live in Mississippi and how they found stuff to do.

In Mississippi their were three kids and they had nothing to do and they were poor so there parents couldnt buy them anything cool like board games and fishing poles. They didn't even get anything electronic like an ipod or a xbox360. So one day the kids were really board on a hot summer day and they decided since they didn't get anything cool from their parents they were going to try to make the fishing pole they always wanted and they were going to even try to make a board game. So the kids got some string and some long sticks that they found near a river and they also found some bobby pins that they could use as hooks. Tey tied the string around they long stick and tied the bobby pin to the string and they went back down to the river and they got some worms and they hooked the worms and throw the string in the river and they caught a fish in about 5 minutes so they were really excited and they went to show there mom and the she said good job now we had some fish for dinner. And those kids now fish every day and they always have food. the end

Why did the chicken cross the road? Well, that’s what were here to find out. The place: Douglas County, Oregon. The time: January 16. His motives: UNKOWN. What we do know is that the chicken is definitely and definitively crossing the road. The speed limit is only 35 mph, so maybe he chicken thought it could beat the oncoming traffic. But what if it is something more than that?

I have reasons to believe that maybe the chicken is rebelling. Trying to be free. To be free of geographic isolation. For too long chickens have tried to cross the road, but in time, it had to happen. We questioned, but why? Deep down, the answer was there. To return to old families and start a new life. It was a leap of faith and that is why the chicken crossed the road.

The picture that I could most identify with is the Light Rail. I can relate the trains to people because they are so close, but all going different directions. We lead our lives so closely but never meet; it’s hard to think someone in the world there is someone living our same problems, thoughts, and relations. I think we should meet as many people in life as possible and do everything possible, before it’s too late and the sun goes down, like in the picture. On these trains there has to be at least two people taking them for the same reason, and these same people will probably meet again and not know it.

Seeing picture number 5 makes me really appreciate what I have. The fact that these children can entertain themselves with the scraps of a tent really shows what we take for granted. A majority of the kids in our generation cannot be entertained without technology. Its sad how much we depend on it so much. And I am not saying that I don't depend on it as much because I am probably one person who depends on it most. I think that if our generation could find pleasure in simple things like playing in tents we would be much more appreciative.

If we the Americans had a world where a cloth was a toy and technology was only for a king, then this world might not be so greedy.

One day, the sun went up and the family set off to a new journey. They had traveled miles on foot, to reach this breath taking place, only to find they need money to continue and further. In one year’s time the father had come to find a job at the furniture store, while the mother began a job at the local grocery. The kids, left on a street to beg for money, as their shelter was a collection of cardboard and blankets. That night, the mother came from around the corner, with the father next to her, holding bags of food, smiling and laughing; that night would be the first in week were the whole family had a real meal, instead of small scraps and portions. That night, the family sat and talked of their progress, the fact that in the next month, they would have enough money to get away from this town, and go to the capital of Germany, Brussels, to start their new life.

The next morning, one year and eight days since they left their revolting and burning village, they got up and walked. Down to the rails which they spent a year saving for. They walked to the station where the family was startled. All these people with so much money, it intrigued them. The sight was glorious, the smell, well, better than their makeshift home, and the adrenaline pumping through all their veins, it was a miracle. As they entered into the train, a man stopped them telling them that they had too many people on and that the family would have to separate, as he pulled the kids away. The screaming and tears, the thrashing and rampaging, it was a blur. Then with a swift movement, the father pulled everyone off, and saw a cart up ahead, going to the same destination. He ran guiding the family, and they all bashed into the cart.

As they all rested from the running, a small voice said, “Where are we going daddy?”

In reply the father said, “to a new beginning,” as the train left, and the gleam of the setting sun shined on the rails, leading the family to a better world.

Picture #15.
As the caption said it was a "Grave Situation". A skull is placed on a patch of grass and left for someone else to find you may think to yourself "where is this skull". If you look at the grass its a deep rich color and looks in control. You could say the grass is tended to and well nourished. The grass is rich and vibrant with life but what a nefarious act to put an object filled with death and despair.

The skull was put down and may still be resting on that patch of grass that was once flowing with life. Death may spread throughout our lives but it is often times unnoticed as a whole. Yes a few people important to the event of death and removal of life will know and mourn over it but as a race of intelligent beings death goes unnoticed by all of us. We do not take death as a serious matter until it is right in-front of us. Look to the side and maybe you'll see death coming.

One day in a refugee camp the children go bored. They had been sitting around for days not knowing what to do. When suddenly one of them had an idea. “Let’s make a fort,” said one of the kids. “Yea! We can pretend it’s a castle,” said another little boy. The boys spent that morning gathering materials for their fort. It was made of big pieces of scrap material. Once the Fort was finished they chose a king. “I whoever came up with the idea should be,” said the oldest. “That’s me,” said the youngest of them all he was nearly 5. Then they split into two groups knights and the attackers. The attackers would hide and the knights would peek through looking and waiting. They boys had so much fun. They barley even thought of everything else going on. “That was the most fun day I’ve had since I showed up here,” a kid said. They played till diner and didn’t even want to stop, but their parents made them. From then on every day the boys would escape the hard life of the refugee camp into their new fantasy land where they could be happy no matter what.

I enjoyed your story as i too could imagine that scene playing out from that picture. I particularly liked when you kept enforcing that the kids were having so much fun collaborating, playing together that they just forgot about the troubles they might face later in the day. It's as if all of those kids were just living in the present moment. I think your story has realism as i bet there are many refugees who find happiness through each other and learn how to live free once more even for a while. I enjoyed your story on the refugee camp which held happy faces and time spent living in the present moment. World peace y'all

I really loved your story because it kinda shows a child's aspect of a refugee camp, and how boring life must be for them while they wait out each day. It shows us how lucky we are in that we can do what we please, without having to worry about getting shot and killed. Your story also shows a child's version of war, which I also thought was very charming the way they all worked together to create a working society, so to speak.

Picture 11 little Gandhi's

The reason why the children are dressed like this is because not only was it the day that there pacifist leader, Mahatma Gandhi, was shot to death on that very day but also people have forgotten what and who they are. For example some African-Americans act like the segregation was a long time ago and had been long forgotten. Martin Luther King is the reason why people have changed the impact changed our lives just how Mahatma Gandhi changed India's live's. Since India has evolved people have forgotten there culture, without him India would of still been one of the countries people ignore.

The second picture of the week caught my eye immediately, Pancake ice they named it. I know when it all began; it was back over 120 years ago when everyone considered global warming to be a possibility but a possibility in the year 2120 no less. How naïve those beings were… Well, now this picture seems like a joke to me as I have already seen much of the woes global warming has to offer. If I remember correctly I was about 72 when frozen wastelands took over the circumference of my world. I was old but at the time technology was moving about as fast as it has been in a while. It all started with cloning animals, than people, and then before you know it the smart guys came up with an elixir for immortality or the ability for one to be revived or renewed time after time. Don’t get me wrong if it wasn’t for those smart guys I wouldn’t be alive. Anyway it was a horrible time to live in people freezing to death left and right, horrible leaders winning over the minds of able bodies for resources. All of this could have been avoided but the consent of my parent’s was not given to those smart guys who preached the truth to the world, warning, wanting others to know of the horrors to come. I guess smart guys are not always the most prevalent during a time of confusion as the factories continued blowing their smog, humans continued to command products at their fingertips, and my parent’s only concerned with what they could have a grasp on. Global warming was just too immense for one generation or generations of people to recognize or mend. Not even the smart guys could save us when the good days came to a close… Pancake ice is the title of a picture I now laugh at if only they could see the ice to come.

Picture #5

It's hard growing up in Palestine in this day and age, especially on the Gaza Strip. Although many people side with the Israelites and say things against the Palestinians, they are human. It must be tough living in a war zone like that when at any moment you can be rushed in to a bomb shelter or taken away from your family. Although these children have escaped a largely malicious environment, don't be fooled in to thinking they're in a better place. I believe it is fair to say these kids have it tough. Think about what you do after school- homework, shopping, starbucks, surfing, etc. You get food from Boney's or Von's. I mean be honest with yourself- you live in Coronado, you are not poor. You have never been truly hungry, you have stuff to do, an excellent education, and so on. These kids live on the Gaza Strip. One of the most dangerous places to live in this world today. They live in fear every day of their lives. Not only must they worry about where there next meal is going to come from, but they have to lay awake and wonder if they'll be there the next day. This is some serious stuff for kids of their age (in the picture they look quite young). Back to the original point though, I think this picture is inspiring. Because, even though these kids have it so tough, they manage to find happiness and love in the smallest things such as a makeshift tent. I believe that in the long run that is all that matters.

I like the picture with the Idian Border enforcement. They left there instrument on trees and they have camels just relaxing in the back round. The fact that's the instruments are on the tree have me the thought that in nature trees are instruments because they make so much noise blowing in the wind. The camel in the background is like a metaphors for someone chilling and listening to nature.

His story to the picture he chosed is so unique and fresh. I mean a group of boys feeling like there just shadows compared to their fathers in the facial hair world. The boys have to find themselves and promise eachother that they will seek their true beauty and grow god-like facial hair. The pack and bond they make to eachother in the search for true happiness is a mountain full of amazement

So many paths in life, which one to choose? Life is like a train track you stay on a steady consistint track; but then you shift tracks and change direction and have to stay along for the ride. People feel like you have to stay on the same track but not always, how do you know you wanna take tht track if youve never been down tht road. Life is about being crazy and spontanious but have order and pattern like a train track. Life is a train track!!!

Picture 13

You know, I know the whole reason my family was going to Vegas was because of the presidential campaign rally and what not, but I was still excited to be in Sin City. The hotels, casinos, the shopping; everything sounded wonderful. My parents were so excited to get the chance to see Governor Romney in person, that when they heard about the rally, they immediately began to plan our seven night stay. I mean who could blame them, the guy could be our future president. but when we got there, I never realized how boring it would be.

I had some vision in my mind of what the rally would be like, with him covering all of his political standings and all. Being a teenage girl, I didn't like it, but I didn't hate it either. I guess my dad having the news on every night, I was used to it. But my vision didn't even compare to the real thing. He just went on and on, and the really eccentric supporters cheered at the most awkward places. I was constantly tempted to fall asleep, but I knew what my parents would say, if their eyes ever started to wander. And then, right in the middle of his last argument, he just walked off the stage, and back into the building behind him. The crowds were appalled. Me, I was just happy it was over.

I chose the photo with the man and the costume.
When it comes to work you take what you get. For this man it was dressing up as a silly character and dancing at kids birthday parties. The crazy thing is that he loves it. He loves making little Russian kids fill to the brim with excitement.
Even though he loves his job, he didn't at first. He only started to raise money for his college fund so he could get out of horrible Russia, but now he doesn't look at it that way. He is even thinking about opening a costume company after he finishes college.
Now, though, he is still working day to day, entertaining children of the Russian variety. He is still going home on the bus, not yet able to afford a car to drive home in. One day, he will.

Newt in the house!
Sara had watched all of the Jersey Shore seasons so far. She told all of her friends she wanted to be on the show. Her friends told her she was kinda've old and that she had no chance. Sara thought that since she was blonde and not a guidette she could start another show that was like the Jersey Shore but call it "The American Shore". Her idea was to have anyone 21 and older be able to be on the show. Sara even invented the new dance move, instead of the fist pump it's called the "flexed hand pump". Sara's picture was taken with one of the new cast members, Georgina, who will be on "The American Shore" with her. As you can tell in the picture Sara is overly excited and can't wait to start filming her new show!

Picture 4:
Phil was never good with animals. He decided that one day he would go to the zoo and see if he could feed the lions. To his surprise, he saw that there was a new animal; a bull. He decided it would be fun to try to ride the bull. So he walked up to the bull’s cage and yelled mean words at the bull. The bull got angry and started ramming the gate with his horns.
Phil found this extremely funny so he decided he was going to open the cage to see what the bull would do. As soon as he opened the cage, the bull charged out, chasing Phil as he screamed bloody murder. The bull chased Phil and in the process ended up herding a large group of tourists. Phil decided to hide in the back of a zoo keeper’s pickup truck, as the rest of the tourists hid on the hood in silence, and hoped the bull would mistake them as a part of the car.

One of the family members see the bull running after them and screams out, "RUN," the other family members don't know what she was talking about and ignores her until they turn around. When they turn around they see a huge bull charging after them. They have no were else to go but on to a truck. The bull stocks them for another hour before running off and waiting to attack next.

5 men entered a ski race in order to win the grand prize of $50,000. They all raced down the hills with speed and mastery, but one was starting to pull ahead of the others. As all 5 men jumped over the last hill, one man decided that he really hated the guy in first place, and decided to hit him with his ski pole. This knocked the guy behind, and made a pile-up between all of the other racers, getting the cheater the grand prize. However, he was disqualified for disorderly conduct, and was thrown out of the race. The other four men raced again for the prize, and the man that was in first place finally won.

Picture 1: A new adventure
Today was the day where everyone from the Norweigian Star cruise ship gathered around the San Fransisco Bay to wait on who got to go on a small cruise to go snorkeling, but unfortunetely they could only take 100 people on the ship out of about 4000. People wanted to go on this mini cruise so bad because it was free, and everyone who really wanted to go were running to get to the mini cruise first. These people have waited there for hours, and its sort of unbelievable that its only for an hour, but those people are still lucky I have to say.

Conversation between the 4 teenagers:

Girl in black flowery bathing suit: "Guys, maybe we should go back to the Norweigian Star cruise ship, because i am so cold I might even melt."
Girl in yellow bathing suit: "No, I see a really cute guy, so quit making those weird expressions that you are doing. I know its really cold but get over yourself."
Girl in pink and black bathing suit: "Im hungry, oh and guys, uhh should we find our parents, i'm scared.." ;)
Boy in green bathing suit: "I'm scared! I want my mommy!"

The land before ponchos:

"Andy! Andy get back here! you took my jacket, now your gonna pay you little dweeb." jack was furious, it was winter in the city of avylpante and jack was jacket less. " Ha ha ha ha, your never gonna be warm again jack, I've got your jacket!" Andy was taunting jack until the point of no return. Jack turned a corner and there he was, Andy was standing but three yards away. Jack seized the opportunity and tackled him to the ground. The only issue was that it wasn't Andy; it was the school bully who was about to hit Arnold the school nerd. Arnold took a break for it and so did jack and within seconds they ran into Andy and told him to run for it. Together they found a giant piece of fabric, hid under it, and cut holes so they could see. That is how those three boys masked by fear created the first version of the poncho. They would be warm forever and Jack apologized to Andy because now he had ponchos so he wouldn't need a jacket.The boys moved to three separate countries and spread the poncho throughout the world.

Near the Oder River near Frankfurt, on the German-Polish border, the final 3 contestants on the latest ABC television show, "Deadliest Competition" gather for their final round. They compete in time/skill for a GRAND prize of $1,000,000 !!! These contestants have gone through a lot in the previous rounds, the 3 people that made it farthest are, Jennifer Grant, Ryan Machin, and James Cooper. They will have to think light like a feather, and hop across the River on these ice pads and grab the yellow flag to stop their timer. This will be a tough round for these strong competitors, but someone will walk away with big check!! To me, this challenge seems near impossible!! "i'm nervous that these ' ice pads ' are going to cave in" Jennifer Grant exclaims. The Nervous Competitors anxiously wait for their turn to come. Ryan starts first, with a time of 5:43, Jennifer is next, she is eliminated after finishing with a time of 6:04, the final competitor, lastly James Cooper completes the obstacle with the fastest time of 5:37!!! The competitors tried their very hardest and put on an entertaining show for us! but in the end, James Cooper walked away $1,000,000 richer than before. CONGRATS!!!

As the day went on they kept making the ice pancakes. Later in the day they didn't know what to do with all the pancakes that they had made. As they were trying to think of what todo with the pancakes Graysyn looked to the river and then turned to Ari. She told him that they should put them in the lake. So both Graysyn and Ari put all the pancakes that they had made that day into the lake. Now every winter Ari and Graysyn go back with their kids and make ice pancakes.

I choose picture 4 because I think it is interesting how all the important people are in the same room discussing something obviously shocking that happened.
People in the picture are shocked, for example the woman with the blond hair that has her hand on her mouth. I am imagining some other country attacking the US and a slideshow on the picture is reveling where they have been hurt and where the attacking county is headed. Of course people are going to be shocked because another war is bad. I know that this isn't the case and the problem is something less tragic than what I said but I was just giving an example.

Picture 11
The Spy Kids Agency had their biggest mission yet, to infiltrate the Russian stronghold and steal back their blueprints for their new tree house. This tree house would act as safe house in case the Kids Next Door launched a primitive strike on mother base. Anyway, the plan was simple, they would sneak past the guards dressed as Gandhi impersonators, and go into the hanger through the back. They all got in the van and Kevin's mom drove them into the base. The Base was old, the kind of base used in whatever war the Russians were in last. So it was made of like bricks and stuff like that, many guards patrolled the grounds but fell for the outfits and let them pass into the court yard. Kevin's mom let them out and would wait for them to get back. There were nine kids in this operation but a few would have to stay back and distract the guards. So it was up to John, Kevin, Jack, and Samantha to retrieve the blue prints. Each was equipped with a standard Nerf handgun. They easily got in through the back while the guards were mesmerized by the Gandhi impersonations. They were now in the main hanger, all guards were outside watching the others impersonate Gandhi. As soon as they were in they saw the blue prints in plain sight strung up on the side wall. But the Kids Next Door were also there taking their afternoon naps. The Spy Kids attempted to sneak by them, but John's fake stash tickled him and he sneezed. The Kids Next Door were up and firing their Nerf guns in a flash, and The Spy Kids quickly took cover.
"We need to take these guys out!" Said John, loading a Nerf bullet into his gun. Samantha peeked her head out to see how many there were. But she had to put her head down because they had the new nerf guns, like the one's that only rich kids could afford.
"We'll never be able to get them with these kind of guns!" Announced Kevin.
"No! There has to be a way!" Assured Jack. they were under heavy Nerf gun fire, they would soon by over whelmed. John Knew there was no other way but to sacrifice himself.
"Guys, as soon as I run out fire on them," He said
"John no! There has to be another way!" Said Samantha, tears were now streaming down her cheeks.
"Tell my mom, that a seven o'clock bed time is bull crap," John said. And with that, he ran out into the cascade of Nerf gun fire. The others immediately shot up and opened fire on the Kids Next Door. Bullet after bullet hit John square in the chest, he let out a short yelp of pain before hitting the ground. The Spy Kids, red with anger, went all out on the Kids Next Door. Plastic darts flew everywhere, and the Kids Next door were losing numbers. Samantha sped acros the floor, rolling away from coming darts, and grabbed the leader. She forced all the others to drop their weapons, they were defeated. Kevin rushed over to the body of John, who was still conscious.
"Can you keep a secret?" Whispered John, one hand on his chest.
"Of course" Kevin forced out through tears. John lifted his t-shirt and reveled Jack's velcro armor.
"I took it out of Jacks room without permission"
"You son of a gun!" Exclaimed Kevin, forcing John into a heartfelt embrace. The kids had completed their mission, and everyine returned to mother base for blues clues, and cheez-its.

A group of men were hanging out at a bar. They drank enough alcohol to be not smart in the head. They were talking about what they’re going to do since they started to get bored because of course there wasn’t any ladies at the bar. They were thinking about going to another bar. When they were walking over they saw a sign that had a bull on it. The most stupid idea came to their mind they thought that it would be the funniest thing if they found a bull and brought it to the city. They got into a car and drove a mile out of the city and found a bull. They were trying to figure out how to bring it to the city. They decided to use a claw machine pick it up and drive it to the city. They brought it to the city and the bull wasn’t very happy that it had gotten picked up by a claw. The bull was running through the town and destroyed almost everything in its path. The bull saw the men that took it away from its home and it started to charge them. The men ran and jumped on top of a car and the bull destroyed the car like him destroyed everything else. The men got there pay back and got injured and were in the hospital. The end.

Not that it was about to charge them. I especially laughed at the idiot on his phone, who is probably taking a picture of it and putting it on his Facebook or Twitter saying like, “getting charged by a bull:)” People these days...

the guy in red with beer bottles: were so stupid of letting these bulls we can hurt someone
guy in red with white stripes: not just hurt someone maybe even kill someone.
the guy in blue with glasses:why did i ever think of doing this
the guy in blue that the shirt says ecko: your doing this because your probably drunk that is your fifteen bottle
the guy in all blue with a black watch: how long have we been on top of this car

I agree with what Ezequiel is saying because it is so true that animal cruelty is still very common such as in this picture. Sure, by looking at this picture you see no cruelty, however, these people tease and taunt these poor bulls that have done nothing wrong just for a little excitement and fun. This topic relates to “Lord of the Flies” because it shows that many people do still have savage and cruel ways. I agree that many of these cruel people almost deserve to get hurt by the bull. I don’t say this because I just want them to get hurt but because they need to learn that it is not okay to be cruel to animals and for bad actions there are always bad consequences.

Picture number 4
Once there was a bull. His name was Sam. He lived in a very small village in Mexico. Sam was a nice bull, and was bullied by all the other bulls because he was a pacifist. All the humans were afraid of Sam, because there was a bad stereotype that bulls are mean, even though Sam wasn't. Every year the people in Sam's town let the bulls out of their pens and run loose in the streets.
Sam was chosen as one of the lucky bulls. He wanted to make friends with all the humans so he chased them. All the humans were afraid of Sam, because he was a bull, when really all Sam wanted was to become their friend. Sam saw a group of people surrounding a car. So he charged towards them. All the humans got scared and ran onto the car to get away from him. Sam got very sad and walked away. He was never the same again. Sam became aggressive and mean because no one wanted to be his friend.

I thought the 4th picture in the slide show was interesting. The picture shows an event that is really not extremely important but expresses a very big idea.The picture illistrates a bunch of men on top of a car while a bull stands in front of it.I think this picture is expressing "If you tount nature, it will fight back".What is a little ironic is that even as nature has humans in a uncomfortable situation, humans are still attached to technology.In other words even as the bull is scaring all these men,forcing them to be on top of the car, some guy has his ipod out like hes about to take a picture. As much fun as it might be to taunt the bull at first, I'm sure the men are going to want to get of that car soon and lets just say "nature will w take its course.

I chose the picture of the man in front of all the police kicking and charging at supporters outside of the presidents house. I chose this picture because it intrigued me on how forceful the police were charging at these regular people. They regular people must have been very rowdy, or the police were just very vicious. I saw later in the photo story that many regular people were shot and injured from police trying to fight off the protesters. I did think it was very interesting though how war and fights are still going on down there though. It is a scary thought.

Sad Goodbye
I chose this picture out of the others because in my opinion, it has a lot of meaning to it. Many people may think that funerals are common and not a big deal, but it is very important to recognize the person who died for what they did and how they helped in this world. Especially this Public Safety Officer because he was just trying to make others’ lives less dangerous. It is very sad that incidents like these happen but it is part of life. Many American jobs are not dangerous but jobs like these can be dangerous which causes officers to be very close friends generally. This picture shows a sad fellow officer commemorating his partner.

In this picture it shows many people that respected and cared about this man. It is good to know that people like this that die get noticed for who they were and the job that they had. If this were a relative of mine I would have highly respected him for what his job was. Not everyone can do these kinds of jobs that could be dangerous. This man must have been very brave to do this job and that is why it is so important to recognize him. The main reason I think that this picture is here is because it shows a lot of emotion and helps people to realize that many people in this world have a hard life.

@ Beatrice Benson

I completely agree with you when you said, "If you tount nature, it will fight back". I think that's what nature has been doing for the past years. This picture proves it! All those people on the car holding beers and the look like they're almost laughing at the bull. And notice how the bull is really attacking the car. I think that it's trying to say, "Remember this thing called nature? Yeah, well you're killing it!"

i think ilike madeline caseys story that she made up its kinda of funny. i like the part when the girl said that she doubts that the picture is going to come out on msnbc or become huge. It is kinda of mest up that you are making fun of their weight in the begining.
