Ive always made good grades and done well in school. But this year, im having the hardest time in school, i feel completely clueless, like im just doing my work and barely getting by. Im really am trying my hardest, but I dont feel im learning anything. Im just so sick of school. I hate it. I know its important that i get an education, and i have to go to college, but i im just tired of it. its the same thing everyday. I get bored easily.
My parents say they dont think im trying as hard as i could, but i really am. And when i try my hardest they tell me im not trying enough. I just feel like giving up. im so sick.And when i study my *** off, i fail the test. I just do not get it at all.Algebra is my worst subject . I have a horrible alegra teacher =]

I recently noticed that my drapes had faded spots on them from the sun. Can I dye them myself(they are a light pink) or should I send them out somewhere? If I send them out, where? Will a dry cleaners know how to do it? they are linen drapes not silk.

There'd be people out there knowing exactly when crime is going on and would stop it... that seems cool, but then again there'd have to be super villans too. (Like having an actual spiderman, superman, wonderwoman etc..)

Of course, one can say we somewhat have a world like that already - minus the super powers.

You are an avid skateboarder and just skated down a ramp. You want to find the distance you traveled. The height of the ramp at its tallest part is 40 inches and the horizontal length is 81 inches. Calculate the distance, to the nearest whole inch, you traveled down the ramp.

whether you have kids or not, this is a good read, and good FYI that should be shared with others. the validity of it may be questioned, but that's not really the question at hand. it really makes you think, and that alone is reason that it should be passed along. . .





A Must Read for All who have children or grandchildren

EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ ALL OF THIS and HAVE YOUR CHILDREN READ IT TOO!


After tossing her books on the sofa, she decided to grab a snack and get on-line . She logged on under her screen name ByAngel213. She checked her Buddy List and saw GoTo123 was on. She sent him an instant message:

ByAngel213:
Hi. I'm glad you are on! I thought someone was following me home today. It was really weird!

GoTo123:
LOL You watch too much TV. Why would someone be following you?
Don't you live in a safe neighborhood?

ByAngel213:
Of course I do. LOL I guess it was my imagination cuz' I didn't ! see
Anybody when I looked out.

GoTo123:
Unless you gave your name out on-line. You haven't done that have you?

ByAngel213:
Of course not. I'm not stupid you know.

GoTo123:
Did you have a softball game after school today?

ByAngel213:
Yes and we won!!

GoTo123:
That's great! Who did you play?

ByAngel213:
We played the Hornets. LOL. Their uniforms are so gross! They look like bees. LOL

GoTo123:
What is your team called?

ByAngel213:
We are the Canton Cats. We have tiger paws on our uniforms. They are really cool.

GoTo123:
Did you pitch?

ByAngel213:
No I play second base. I got to go. My homework has to be done before my parents get home.
I don't want them mad at me. Bye!

GoTo123:
Catch ! you later. Bye

Meanwhile.GoTo123 went to the member menu and began to search for her profile. When it came up, he highlighted it and printed it out. He took out a pen and began to write down what he knew about Angel so far.

Her name: Shannon
Birthday: Jan. 3, 1985
Age: 13
State where she lived: North Carolina

Hobbies: softball, chorus, skating and going to the mall. Besides this information, he knew she lived in Canton because she had just told him
He knew she stayed by herself until 6:30 p.m. every afternoon until her parents came home from work. He knew she played softball on Thursday afternoons on the school team, and the team was named the Canton Cats. Her favorite number 7 was printed on her jersey. He knew she was in the eighth grade at the Canton Junior High School. She had told him all this in the conversations they had on- line. He had enough information to find her now.

Shannon didn't tell her parents about the incident on the way home from the ballpark that day. She didn't want them to make a scene and stop her from walking home from the softball games. Parents were always overreacting and hers were the worst. It made her wish she was not an
only child. Maybe if she had brothers and sisters, her parents wouldn't be so overprotective.

By Thursday, Shannon had forgotten about the footsteps following her.

Her game was in full swing when suddenly she felt someone staring at her. It was then that the memory came back. She glanced up from her second base position to see a man watching her closely.

He was leaning against the fence behind first base and he smiled when she looked at him. He didn't look scary and she quickly dismissed the sudden fear she had felt.

After the game, he sat on a bleacher while she talked to the coach. She noticed his smile once again as she walked past him. He nodded and she smiled back. He noticed her name on the back of her shirt. He knew he had found her.

Quietly, he walked a safe distance behind her. It was only a few blocks to Shannon's home, and once he saw where she lived he quickly returned to the park to get his car.

Now he had to wait. He decided to get a bite to eat until the time came to go to Shannon's house. He drove to a fast food restaurant and sat there until time to make his move.

Shannon was in her room later that evening when she heard voices in the living room.

"Shannon, come here," her father called. He sounded upset and she couldn't imagine why. She went into the room to see the man from the ballpark sitting on the sofa.

"Sit down," her father began, "this man has just told us a most interesting story about you."

Shannon sat back. How could he tell her parents anything? She had never seen him before today!

"Do you know who I am, Shannon?" the man asked.

"No," Shannon answered.

"I am a police officer and your online friend, GoTo123."

Shannon was stunned. "That's impossible! GoTo is a kid my age! He's 14. And he lives in Michigan!"

The man smiled. "I know I told you all that, but it wasn't true. You see, Shannon, there are people on-line who pretend to be kids; I was one of them. But while others do it to injure kids and hurt them, I belong to a group of parents who do it to protect kids from predators. I came here to find you to teach you how dangerous it is to talk to people on-line. You told me enough about yourself to make it easy for me to find you. You named the school you went to, the name of your ball team and the position you played. The number and name on your jersey just made finding you a breeze."

Shannon was stunned. "You mean you don't live in Michigan?"

He laughed. "No, I live in Raleigh. It made you feel safe to think I was so far away, didn't it?"

She nodded.

"I had a friend whose daughter was like you. Only she wasn't as lucky. The guy found her and murdered her while she was home alone. Kids are taught not to tell anyone when they are alone, yet they do it all the time on-line. The wrong people trick you into giving out information a little here and there on-line. Before you know it, you have told them enough for them to find you without even realizing you have done it. I hope you've learned a lesson from this and won't do it again. Tell others about this so they will be safe too?"

"It's a promise!"

That night Shannon and her Dad and Mom all knelt down together and thanked God for protecting Shannon from what could have been a tragic situation.

*****NOW*****


Please send this to as many people as you can to teach them not to give any information about them
selves. This world we live in today is too dangerous to even give out your age, let alone anything else.

EVEN FORWARD THIS TO PEOPLE WITHOUT KIDS SO THEY CAN SEND IT TO FRIENDS THAT DO HAVE CHILDREN OR GRANDCHILDREN.

So there is a song out there and it's not very popular but I was wondering if anyone could help me. A line in the song goes something like, "If roses are red, and violets are blue, then why is my heart meant for you?" Or it may be then why am I meant for you. Something like that. Could someone please tell me who sings this song?

I just got out of a 3 year marriage. I stopped loving my husband 2 years ago. My highschool sweetheart and I had a serious relatinship for 9 years on and off. So he came over 2 months after the divorce.
I told him I wanted to try our relationship again, we had a love that was like a movie, and he's single and I'm single. He responded by saying"the man u knew is dead. I am a new man, and I've been hurt too many times and I don't want a serious relationship".
So, he spent the night after our talk(we did not have sex), and all night long he held me in his arms. I am still so in love with him, and I want to be with him. He left this morning, and hasn't called since. Should I just move on, or keep trying to get my man?
He said he just wants to be friends, but I know there's more to us.

Had the Peace Democrats succeeded it is likely slavery would have continued and the Confederate States of America would have been allowed to secede from the Union and the United States would be remain a nation divided today. Lincoln’s presidency would have been a disgrace and he would have been forever labeled the president that broke the Union.

Peace Democrats. Many Democrats within this group hoped that the Union could be salvaged, but felt that military means were not justified. This faction asserted the following:
•The North was responsible for pushing the South into secession
•The Republicans were committed to establishing racial equality, a prospect opposed by many working class immigrants who wanted to protect their low-paying jobs and by racists
•Lincoln had become a tyrant and was bent upon destroying civil liberties
•The war was a national tragedy and must be ended, even if that meant granting independence to the Confederacy.

Does this sound familiar?
