In geography class, we have to make a children's style book, with a page for each letter, and a hand drawn picture of something that has to do with Australia. Does any one have any ideas, hints, tips, suggestions, or anything of the like?

Does anyone else wonder why so many that have obvious difficulties in spelling don't just take advantage of "Spell check"?

What do you think the reasons might be for ignoring it?

I need vocab jokes with these words but the joke has to somehow have the definition of the word in it.

For example: Why was Johnny involved in a car accident? because he had bad KARma.

They can be very corny doesn't matter.

you may not agree with me but listen to this. Godzilla is a word in my spell check. it also includes other fictional characters and some words I don't thinks in the English language but anything I commonly use that I know are words {even if there not in in our language} seem to be out. like lol or manga. also shonen an shoujo.

if your going to have a spell check words on the Internet have it include words people use on the Internet. what do you think.

also. did you know ageist is a word. surprised the heck out of me.

I am so stuck on a assigment for a womans studies course. We have to do an "outrageous act" and then write about it. They prof said the act could be something like writing an editor about a sexist article, going in "drag", it can be really anything.

Writing letters is not challenging, and I'm not a man so me going in drag would be pointless...

Does anybody have any interesting/challenging ideas for an outrageous feminist act?

They have to have opposing views on pretty much everything as well completely different values. It would be best if the fictional character's came from a classic.
