Thanks. She is such a girly girl, but she loves to drive the quad and the lawn tractor.

That is really cool Jim, my little sister when she was maybe 8, asked how to drive my dirt bike... I taught her in a few hours, and she can still ride one today and she just turned 20...This is me and her a few years later, on my dad's old CL70, in my mom's back field...Name:  Slide Show Pics 265.jpg

Cool pics Brent you both look like your having a blast.

Romeo & Juliet.

My english teacher is having us do a huge project that is going to count as our final exam.

She wants us to re-write the ending to the play as one thing.

My new ending: Romeo's a ***. Just like Shakespeare was.

I actually got into a big fight with my English teacher last year. I asked why we neededt o know all the dumb stuff we were learning. Her answer was "Well if you wanted to become an English teacher or major in Literature"

So my counter-argument was that if that is true then English teachers are just self-perpetuating and we should get rid of them all and simplify our lives and save a lot of time and money.

She didn't like that too much.

Haha thats funny man.

Ive had that arguement way too many times in my high school days too, with various things. Ya never actually win, even if ya are right!

Now romeo and juliet, I hated that book, it fell right in my 'who gives a rats ***" category.

Finished Shakespeare. Probably going to fail that one.

Now I'm on to writing a paper about Booker T. Washington. Same length as the Shakespeare one, but I'm already halfway done with the paper about Booker and I haven't even had to look anything up yet.
