The Great and Powerful... 15!!!!!

This is it folks. Number 15. Last of the courage journals. End of the line. Out of tape. A big fat stop sign. We've had some laughs, some tears, and some looks of confusion when I didn't make sense. (Mainly because I'm off my rocker.) It's been real, it's been fun, and it's been real fun. Though only about six people read this blog I will be sad because you probably will never read The Blog again, and it will fade into obscurity. Face it, you only read this stuff I jot down because you are already online writing your blogs for your courage journals.

So keep reading! If you don't write comments, I won't know if you are reading. Then I will stop writing. And that would be a tragedy. So if I still get some comments beyond this post, then I will most likely keep writing. Maybe just not as much.

For the last and final Courage Journal, I voted. Though I am not old enough to vote, CSCS had a mock-vote. I, of course, voted for my own write in. Mr. Douglas Tharp. (Who else did you think I was going to vote for? Obama? McCain?

I am still sad. The fate of The Blog is on shaky grounds. I hope you keep reading because this is a lot of fun to write. But you love this. You love reading these. (Even though I tend to get wordy sometimes.)

Happy with my 15 posts of fame

Sniff...

I had no idea that number 15 was coming up so soon. With the end of the 15th Courage Journal, that might be the end of the blog. I was thinking what would happen to The Blog once the courage journals no longer had to be written. I came up with this. It depends on you, the reader. Half of the posts I write are entertainment pieces for you. Interesting things that make you think and let you see into my head a little. But, most of you are classmates that only read The Blog because you are already online doing your own courage journal (hopefully.) After Number 15, will you still read this?

But this is bringing me down.

So I will move on to more interesting things.

I think that some candies should consider a rename. If a jawbreaker breaks your jaw, could you still sue them? If it doesn't break, should you sue them for that? Can a Life Saver really save your life? If it was named after the life rings on boats, then could it be used as a floatation device? Things to think about.

Yesterday, I changed the sub-title of The Blog to "Testing common knowledge." Just an FYI.

Today I finally bought the Back to the Future Trilogy! WOOOOOO! If you haven't watched the movies, watch 'em! Now.

Gosh, still depresed.

I gave my super-awesome mega fantastic made up as I went along speech today in English. WOOooooo... It was nerve racking. And it was scary because I didn't really have a speech written. Just an outline. AND I was 20 seconds over the max. time limit. This is my courage.

Unsure of The Blog's future,

MD

Survey says...

Ever watch Family Feud? Interesting game show really. Two families answer trivia questions to win money. But, are they really feuding? When I think of feuding, I think of two farmers fighting over a chicken that crossed the property line through a hole in the fence. Though these families are competing for cash and the Family Feud Home Edition Board Game, they really aren't feuding? Right?

Rival schools can be scary. Rival plays? Scarier. Well, maybe not. But, today, I tried to see if I could hang a poster for Cheaper by the Dozen, (the play I'm in. Come and see it!) at my church, and I was quickly shot down. The church is also having a play on the exact same dates as Cheaper. Go figure. But no worries. I'm still pulling strings to hang that poster! That seems like courage to me.

Walking away with a complementary prize,

The day before the second

Merry November 1st everyone!

Today, unfortunately, I was unable to come up with anything interesting to write about before I got on to my Courage Journal. Sorry. But, if I wrote one every day, eventually I would run out. So you will just have to wait for tomorrow. Hopefully. Possibly. Maybe.

Again, sorry.

I showed courage in a lot of small and insignificant ways. I wrote today's The Blog post. Even though I didn't want to though... I set up a new mouse for my computer. (Hey, I could have been electrocuted!) I don't know if any of this will count, but I tried.

Electric free,

MD
