4 dollars for gas i too much, i think its stupid that i may not be able to drive because the gas will be too much, i think biofuels would help beacause it would be alot cheaper than normal gas. i think if we didnt need oil we wouldnt be in iraq firghting. and i would never give up my music....

The price for gas is a lot more than it should be because I want a car when I turn sixteen and if I have to pay for gas too then I won't be able to enjoy it, or drive in it. I don't get how the gas has anything to do with Iraq or even why we're fighting there. It just doesn't make sense. Four dollars is crazy for gas...how are people going to get places? What if I have a sick grandma and I can't see her because the gas prices are too much and I won't be able to afford a trip to go down and see her. I think we should just stop fighting in Iraq and look at what's affecting people the most.

The New Energy Crisis

Gas is predicted to go up in cost to $3.50 or $4.00 a gallon this summer! What do you think is the solution to this problem? How do you feel knowing that when you are old enough to drive that you may not be able to afford too. Do you think that biofuels could make the difference? What about buses or other formed of transportation; are they the answer?

Some people think that we would not be in the middle east an Iraq if it were not for oil. Do you agree or disagree? Are you willing to give up your computer, your ipod, your CD"s all of these things are made out of fossil fuels? This will be a big problem for your generation what do you think?

Hula Hooping

I didn't really think that hula hooping was as popular as it is until i read thins article. Hula hooping is fun and its cool that it is also a great workout for just five minutes three times a week! wow!
It sounds like alot of people are really into hooping and there are even compititions!

I cant wait until we get our hoops next week, im also excited for the performance on tuesday!

Hula Hoops

It was pretty good. I did not know that hula hoops could burn 400 calories an hour. I never really thought that when you do it it takes adults back to there childhood. Thats just crazy. I didnt know that hula hooping could cause so many inguries. Like how you can pull muscles,and you half to stertch before you get to hula hoop. My question is: why do guys hula hoop if its like a girl sport or just too girly like.

Super Tuesday

This week I want you to find an online article about Super Tuesday. If you aren't sure where to start I would try some of these: www.nytimes.com, www.cnn.com, www.ap.org, www.bendbulletin.com, www.time.com. Make sure you include the web address of your article in your blog statement.

Tell us about the article and what you think about the race. Do you think that America should have a national primary? What do you think about the idea of the electorial college? Do we need this anymore? What are your thoughts on election fraud?

Please DO NOT make your blog a pitch for one candidate or another. Please stick to the assignment. Remember you should write 6-8 sentences.
