School Does Bad Things :[

Hey Everyone it's Danielle,
Well since school has started I feel really distance from my family.I'm so busy trying to get good grades,I blocked out the people that matter most.I just cant seem to find time.And they tell me things like "how's life?" My dad says stuff like "hello stranger".And it hurts because I never really wanted it this way.I miss talking to my mom and going to play baseball at the park with my little brother and going to parties.How do you think I can find more time to sit and talk to my family?How can I get on top of things again? How can I juggle family and school? Do you have a busy life too? How do you keep everything maintained?

Heath ledger R.I.P

NEW YORK (CNN) -- Actor Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday of a possible drug overdose in a Lower Manhattan apartment, the New York Police Department said.

The Academy Award-nominated actor was 28.
Ledger was found naked and unresponsive, facedown on the floor at the foot of his bed by a housekeeper trying to wake him for an appointment with a masseuse, said police spokesman Paul Browne....


I have a question for you kids.. Do you really think that Heath would do this to him self or was he murdered?? If you think he did this to himself try to back your belief up and if you believe it was really a murder back your belief as well.

Sad, sad, sad

A California man with an MBA shot and killed himself as well as his family. Why? Because after being out of work for months he felt like a failure.

Doing you think that this was a cultural phenomenon or just a sign of the times?

You Have Got to Be Kidding Me!!!

My favorite part of the blogging is getting to hear what you all have to say about issues that we don't have time to cover in class. I know I am posting 2 tonight, but consider one of them Monday's post. Plus, once I read this...WOW!!

End of American Empire

For all of my life, the USA has been the most powerful country in the world. But now that the economy stinks and the dollar is so weak, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that the American empire is coming to an end.

Do you think that this is true, or can we recover from the years of political scandals (Monica Lewinsky anyone) and presidents who have been perceived by others as buffoons (GW Bush) to regain dominance in the world market?

The Economy

I'm sure that many of you are aware of the hard times the economy has bestowed upon us. We no longer eat out on Fridays. We used to get take-out sushi. I also tend to now go grocery shopping once every other week to save money.

What are some things you and your family are doing to save money in these tough times? Which presidential candidate do you think will help get us out of this mess?

Obama Waffles

Ya gotta see this!

Obama Waffles: Offensive or funny? By the way: waffle has 2 meanings here: the breakfast food and Obama's "waffling" on the issues.
