Those crazy canucks

Ever gone ice fishing? I know I sure have! I've never quite done it like these people though, but I guess it would work. Anyways just make sure you measure the ice before you go out, and don't forget your bathing suit. eh?

Mark, this new mustache... it's... changed you...

Here's a picture I found funny. I think it would be hard to ride a bicycle like that though. What if you hit a bump and flew off the front? I have enough trouble riding my own modern bike as it is. I broke my last bike when I was riding home from school. Hit a pothole and just fell over. Scraped up my leg pretty bad and bent the wheel and wrecked the brakes. Sounds pretty funny doesn't it? It was less funny for me. Anyways what I'm trying to say is that if I had a bike with a huge wheel like that in the front I don't think my riding would get better.

Brilliant

This is a genius idea. You can feel like you're the most important person, even if you're just picking up trash on the side of the highway. You can pretend you're Brad Pitt or Orlando Bloom when you're walking to school. Kanye West or Channing Tatum when you're walking to the grocery store. Everywhere you go, you will know that you are red carpet worthy. And the best part is you don't have to share with anyone.

Blackbird

I really like this song. It's by the Beatles and it's very peaceful and the guitar is really nice in it. I don't play the guitar very much, but I know a few songs on it. "Baby" by Justin Bieber is sadly the first song I ever learned on guitar. "Why are you sad about that?" you ask, well I'm not a Justin Bieber fan. Not at all. I prefer the Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Beatles, Chiddy Bang, Fun. and other bands. It's not that Justin Bieber is bad, he's just not my type. "Why did you learn his song on guitar if you don't like him?" Another great question. My neighbor who plays guitar very well and likes Justin Bieber decided that I should learn guitar, and also like Justin Bieber. I did learn guitar, but I still don't like Justin Bieber. Anyways enjoy this song!

Dum Dum, give me more Gum Gum

Are you always broke? Are you struggling to fund your pop rocks addiction? Are you bored with your plain old job that offers no excitement? Well do I have a job for you!

GUM BUSTER

Now I know you're asking yourself, "Is this like a ghost buster?" Not quite. These wonderful heroes are in charge of scraping gum off of everything. Without them our world would be a giant piece of bubble gum. "That would be cool." Nope. It wouldn't be a nice pink soft piece of gum like you're thinking. It would be a hard, stale, gray piece of pre-chewed awfulness. I know now you feel bad for sticking your gum under that park bench or just leaving it on the sidewalk after it fell out of your mouth when you were laughing, but don't. If you didn't, there would be no job for these wonderful people.
Let me take you through a day in their lives. You can make about 400$ for just a few hours of work. Gum busters are very popular in bigger cities where there are more people, and more gum. They use special machines that remove gum in a matter of minutes.
A Gum buster
There are gum busters all over the world. They work hard to keep our sidewalks clean.

Whenever there's a piece of gum on the sidewalk... they'll be there. When you feel a mountain of gum underneath that bench.... They will be there. When you're walking down the sidewalk and you step on a fresh piece of pink chewing gum... They. Will. Be. There. So next time you're walking home and you narrowly avoid a piece of gum, say thanks to the gum busters who will clean it up for you.

All you need is love..

There's nothing you can do that can't be done. Nothing you can sing that can't be sung. Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game It's easy. There's nothing you can make that can't be made. No one you can save that can't be saved. Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time - It's easy.

Today we are posting about someone we admire and I chose the Beatles. I chose the Beatles because they were very opposed to violence and really believed in living peacefully with one another. They really believed that you should be happy. They came from  humble beginnings and created an era. They combined meaningful lyrics with catchy melodies and really got their message of loving everyone across.

The members of the Beatles are John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. Pete Best and Stuart Sutcliffe were also a part of the band at one time. There music was very inspirational and they developed a whole generation of followers. Not everyone believed in their music, but that didn't stop them. They could have changed their music to fit in, but they didn't. They stood by what their style was and paved the way for many artists to come.
 
                                    
The main reason I chose the Beatles was the message in their songs. They sing of love and peace and I really admire that. There were people who threatened them and they didn't let that stop them. They sang from the heart and believed in what they sang.

 "There's nothing you can do that can't be done" If you believe in yourself anything is possible. "And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make." Love one another. "I get by with a little help from my friends." Friends are a very important part of life. "The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful, and so are you." You are important and don't let anyone else tell you different. "Hello, hello, hello. I don't know why you say good-bye, I say hello." No matter what there will be another chance, so don't be sad, look forward to the future.

Snow

Sadly it snowed. Everyone was real excited but I'm not. It's just going to snow more and more, piling up until we can't take it anymore. Anyways this picture pretty much sums it up.
