Christmas

Christmas is just around the corner and I do not know how I can make it special this year. Every year I come up with a creative idea or family project or clever free gifts to do and give out on Christmas. Since we still do not have that much money and not a lot to spare I have to think of new ideas that will not cost me any money. They have to be fun and exciting though because I do not want to disappoint my children. Any ideas?

Aircraft Technology!

An article in the newspaper I quickly glanced at the other day had the story was this new invention called the aircraft. The men of the names Orville Wright and Wilbur Wright (they are brothers) got the first craft to travel. I believe it lasted 12 seconds and went 120 feet. After more attempts they made they got the aircraft to travel even farther. This seems like a mind blowing technology that I never could have imagined was possible. I bet this invention will increase communication significantly, and even transportation because air travel would be faster than any other transportation. I am very impressed that they actually got something to fly up in the air. Will this technology soar and become extremely important? I guess we will just have to see.

Highway system

Considering that we do not have a car to drive, people would think the highway system to us is useless. This is not true because this highway system moves all the traffic and cars away from the street we live on. I do not like cars traveling around where I live all the time, this will solve that problem. Also, I do believe this system will last forever and impact the lives of my children a great amount, in a positive way I hope. This system will connect many parts of the country together. This will improve communication, the traveling of goods, and it will be easier for people to travel for vacations. Maybe someday all the states will be connected to one another through this system. Of course there will be many problems along the way but with new technology those problems can be fixed. For the sake of my children's future I want this system to be successful.

World's Fair

Though I do not think my family or I will ever get the chance to go to see the World's Fair it sounds pretty amazing. The fact that you can go to one place that has what the future will look like in places all around the world is pretty cool. I love the idea of it and I hope that a lot of people go to it so all the money spent will not be a waste.

Extreme Violence

Today, I walked out of the grocery store in the center of town and I saw a mob of people. The curious person I am I had to go over there and try and find out what was going on. I figured it was the workers causing some trouble fighting for their rights but I wanted to know what was happening. I finally get over to where they were and a rioter pushed me to the ground. I broke my arm trying to catch my fall (yes that means that I am typing this with one hand). I wasn't even doing anything and I got hurt! Tyrone says it is my fault for going over to the mob of people in the first place. Anyways this violence has got to stop, I am worried about what is going to happen next.

Strike After Strike!

All the workers in the factory are going on strike. Tyrone and I agree with what they are fighting for but we have too much on the line right now. We are both in good spots in the factory right now, we can't risk it. We have children that we have to provide for. Tyrone persuaded me that we have enough money to survive and cannot be greedy and jealous of the rich people.

Uses of money

It angers me so much to hear stories about how all these millionaires are spending their money. Champagne flowing through faucets, diamond grilled teeth, and using one hundred dollar bills to light cigarettes. Really? There are so many people in the country living off two dollars a day and this nonsense is going on. It just gets me so mad I want to scream at all of the people who waste their money life this. If you have so much money you can do anything with it then maybe a good idea would be to donate it to the people who do need it.
