13 Haunted Houses That Will Make You Wet Your Pants

Okay, so I did not make up that title...it is the title of the following article. Read the article and then pick which one you think would be the best.

Netherworld-Atlanta, GA. I think this would be the best. It would probably scare me the most. It looks like it would. I hate being scared.

Superstitions

I broke a mirror this morning while getting ready. I accidentally dropped my hand mirror on the tile floor. It pretty much shattered. :( According to superstitions from many years ago, I am now facing 7 years of bad luck!?! Personally, I don't follow this kind of thinking, but I've heard of many people that do. For example, my aunt used to make this X mark across the windshield if she was driving down the road and a black cat ran across. I laughed and thought it was crazy, but just something she'd heard for years and wasn't taking any chances. :D
Do you believe any old wise tales or superstitions like these? Why or why not? Where did the breaking a mirror superstition originate?

I believe in some of them. I don't believe in the one about the mirror because I broke a mirror about two years ago and I haven't really had any bad luck. I kinda believe in the one about the cat. I do mark a x on the window if one runs in front of the car. It originated from different times and different places.

1.YOU SKIP SODA (EVEN DIET)
2.YOUR LEGS ARE STRONG
3.YOUR MOM HAD YOU YOUNG
4.YOU EAT AND DRINK PURPLE THINGS

These are 4 ways to prolong your life according to a recent article on Yahoo. Read the article (http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/health/4-surprising-signs-you-ll-live-a-long-time-290919/).

I definitely don't eat or drink purple things. I'm a very picky eater. Maybe I will live to be an old old lady.

Odd News: Woman arrested for keeping kids' ball

An 89-year-old Ohio woman faces a charge of petty theft because neighborhood children say she refused to give back their football.
Edna Jester was placed under arrest last week and taken to the police station in the Cincinnati suburb of Blue Ash. Police say there had been an ongoing dispute over the errant football and a child's father called to report that Jester kept the ball after it landed in her yard.Blue Ash Police Capt. James Schaffer says police warned Jester twice and finally arrested her after she refused to accept a citation. She must appear in mayor's court next month.
Jester said Monday she didn't have time to discuss the incident, saying she has received many phone calls about it.
What are your thoughts on this CNN news article? (on
www.cnn.com today)

I think it was wrong for her not to give the football back but in a way I think they shouldn't have threw it in her yard. Even if it was an accident they should have been more careful. I think it is stupid that she didn't give it back because its just a football. To me I don't think its that big of deal to put someone in jail over a football but people have their own opinion.

Baby Names

My little neice in this picture is named Kyleigh Laverne. Laverne was my paternal grandmother's name. She was one awesome lady and although Laverne may not be the prettiest name out there, it is a name to be cherised within our family. If you had a child tomorrow, what would you name it?

By the way, Kyleigh only weighed a little over 3 lbs. She was about 2 months early and spent over a month in the hospital in Savannah. She is now around 8 months old and weighs about 13 lbs. She smiles all the time and is the sweetest baby girl I know!

If I had a boy I would name it Dion and the middle name after its daddy. If I had a girl I don't know what I would name it.

3rd & Final Presidential Debate

The last debate was last night and with only a few weeks left until the election, the campaign is heating up. I didn't get a chance to watch last night's debate since I was at church, but I plan to catch up with last night's happenings on CNN later today. Did you watch the debate? If you did, what were the big topics? Did the debate change your mind about who you are going to vote for? If you didn't watch, why didn't you? What did you do instead?

I didn't watch the debate. Since I didn't watch it then I don't know what the big topics are. I didn't watch it because I'm not interested in stuff like that I rather watch something else. I was probably in the shower or watching something else instead of watching the debate.

Random Act of Kindness

What do you think about this incident? Have you ever had anything like this happen to you before? Have you ever did this for someone else? What are some simple random acts of kindness you could do to make the world a better place?

I think he mite have been trying to impress one of you. Nothing like this has ever happen to me before. I haven't ever did anything like this for anybody but maybe one day I should. It would be very nice. We could not fight so much or have so much drama to make the world a better place.

Presidential Debate

Did you watch the debate between McCain & Obama last night? If so, what are your thoughts? If not, read this article http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/presidential_debate and then express your thoughts. I'm not asking for you to tell me which candidate you are in favor of, but to give an educated opinion on the debate.

I didn't watch it. So I don't know nothing about it. I am not really interested in that kind of stuff.

Goals Update

Look back at your very first posting on this blog. Have you met any of the goals on your list at this point? Do you need to revise (add or take off) the goals? Did you meet all the goals you set for 1st 9 weeks grades? Explain.

I have met a few but not many. I don't need to take any of them off. I didn't meet all the goals that I set for my first nine weeks goal but at least I am passing all of my classes.

While looking at a cooking magazine yesterday, I saw the oddest Hershey's Kisses ever -- Candy Corn. The description says that these kisses combine the sweet taste of an old-time kid favorite and the smooth, creamy flavor of white chocolate. Have you ever tasted one before? What do you think about them? Do you plan on buying a package of these kisses this Halloween season?

I haven't ever had one of these. I haven't even seen them. I think that I mite like them but you never know until you try it. I don't know if we are gonna get any for Halloween. My mom buys all the candy and stuff for Halloween.
