Happy Thanksgiving

I hope everyone had a happy holiday weekend. I am truly blessed in my life. I am thankful for everyone in my life. I had a very nice Thanksgiving it was just the my parents and my brother and his wife and my niece. I started off my day by trying something that I had never done before, I volunteered at the civic center. It was really nice to be able to experience that, then it was home for a big dinner. It was amazing my mom always fixes so much food, it is like she is feeding an army lol, there is only six of us but the good thing about it is all of the left overs that I get to take home with me. I had a really good time with my niece also it was really fun to be able to see her and spend some time with her. It has been along time since I have been able to do that I was working a lot of overtime during the summer and then I started college and I really didn't have any time after that. I enjoyed it so much and I was able to fix her bike which was fun. We all sat down that evening and watched Terry Fader if anyone knows who that is, and we watched "pumpkin chunkin" on T.V. After that it was home time for me I volunteered to come into work on Friday which is today, I just really could not pass up the money lol it was so boring though there was only like 11 people in the plant it was so boring but I really can't complain the money was very good and the day was easy. I just can't wait for the game Ohio State vs Michigan! Any ways I hope you all had a wonder holiday weekend!

Jake and Ashely were two kids that really made a good couple, but they could not stop fighting over this one small thing that eventually broke them apart. Now it was up to Jakes parents to bring them back together. These two were meant to be together. Ashely wanted to have get a cat but Jake was more of a dog person, that was the only thing they could not agree on. It may seem small but after awhile of arguing  there were some mean things said. After they went there separate ways Jakes parents new they would be lost without each other. They decided to sit Jake down and play some funny but cute videos of cats playing around. His parents also told him that if they would happen to get a cat and dog at the same time they would grow up together and be friends. After sitting down and watching the videos Jake decided that it really wasn't that big of a deal and they should have never been fighting over something so dumb. After Jakes parents were done with him they decided to go see Ashley and do the same thing for her but with dogs. They met later that night Jake was holding a kitten and Ashley a puppy. They never fought again.

10 min writing remix

After watching the videos on remixing I found myself thinking, I always new that music had remixes. I just would have never thought that it went back so far. I feel that people should be allowed to use little pieces of other peoples music or beats to reproduce a remix without penalty. It is  not like they are copying the whole song, they are only taking a few seconds from it. The copy right laws are kind of crazy in my opinion. People just need to step back and think is it really worth all the law suits and media just for a few seconds of a song. I think the people are just getting jealous because the music that their beat is being added into actually sounds pretty good and they are mad they did not think of it first. That is just my opinion though, I mean I can see both sides but I would really have to side with copyleft. Do not get me wrong I don't believe in downloading free music and such I think you should have to pay for things like that but for the copyright side of it I disagree with the laws.

10 min writing speed art.

After watching the the videos in class I did find myself relating their work with what we are doing in a way. They probably had to spend countless hours researching the picture they were going do and research, what foods to use in that artwork. Not just any food would work, they would have to research the picture and then find what food and what canvas would make for the best combination. Take the deer for example, you would not have wanted to use the cheeto's and the black velvet like the artist did for Elvis instead to give it the more realistic look the artist used BBQ sauce, giving the deer more of a natural color. I did find all of the videos interesting, that is cool how someone can do that and make it look so good. I would have never thought of using food like that to make art, it was really cool. If those people can take the time and effort to research what foods will work for their art I feel that doing a little research on my major should come as no problem. So yes I was inspired in some way after watching the videos, those artist put a lot of time and research into their art, and I am doing research to get a good grade and a better job so yes I feel if they can take all that effort and time so can I.

What a nice weekend

This was such a nice weekend, the weather was so nice. One of my friends had a all guys baby shower which went really well. We played some crazy games, like eating baby food and trying to guess what flavor it was. Then someone melted different kinds of candy bars in diapers making it look like poo. We had to try and guess what kind of candy bar it was. It turned out to be  really fun, plus the beer was pretty good as well lol. I was able to just sit back this weekend and relax, but this coming week will be pretty busy for me. I do get to look forward to a nice 4 day weekend next week though which will be so awesome I can not wait to get to spend sometime with the family and eat some delicious food and of course play Assassins Creed III, which is really awesome. The graphics are so realistic it crazy, there is only one thing that don't like and that is the one map where things look futuristic I have always been a fan of AC because they took some much time and put so much detail in the realistic surroundings making it so real for that era. Now they mixed it up by making it somewhat real and futuristic at the same time, that is the only thing though besides that the game is amazing.

Detective:
 I arrived on scene at 11:33am, I walked up to the crime scene to see that a male approximately in his mid to late twenties had what looks to have been murdered. I started my investigation and noticed that there were some thing in the scene that just did not add up. The victim still had all of his belongings so I c ruled out robbery, but what I did notice is the ring he had around his right wrist, almost as if he had been handcuffed to something. After further investigation I discovered that the man was an ex mob boss from Boston. Now the question was why was he here in this little town and how did he end up dead in a parking garage.
Coroner:
After arriving on scene I found a white male approximently 25 years of age lying face up on the secound floor of the downtown parking garage. The victim had multiple stab wounds and heavy bruising around his right wrist. Also bruising on the face possible struggle, from what I have found the victim was killed at at 6:35am.

Ladies and gentlemen what we have here is a case of cold blooded murder. We have found that this ex mob boss was murdered by one of his opposing mobs grunts. He was trying to hand off all of the information that he had on this other mob to the new boss. We have all of the evidence to back this case.

One night on my way home from work I noticed something crossing the road in front of me. I did not really get a good look at it but I seen that it was walking upright like a human. It must have been someone walking down the maybe a hunter or something it was about time for the sun to come up and deer season was in. I kind of just brushed it off and went about the rest of my day. The next night I saw the same thing in the exact same spot as the night before. This time I slowed down and tried to turn my headlights to were it would shine into the field were it had walked. Just as I started to turn the car I heard a very loud howl and my car started shaking, I tried looking around to see what it was but I could never get a good look. I decided it was time to get out of there, as I went to speed off I looked up and saw a very large hairy creature standing in front of the car just staring at me with huge green eyes. I was terrified and accidentally hit the gas and hit the huge creature. It let out a howl as I sped away. I finally arrived home I rushed inside and locked all the doors and turned on all of the lights. I was trying to wrap my mind around what I had just saw. I remembered watching a special on television on Bigfoot, could I just have seen this creature? Just as I was starting to settle down I heard the gut wrenching howl coming from my backyard. I was to scared to look outside, I just sat in the middle of my house hoping it would just go away. Then my house began to shake as if something was scratching its back on one of the corners, like a bear. Maybe that is all it was, just a bear. I decided to take a look and make sure I went to the window facing the backyard and peered out, before I had a chance to see anything I found myself staring what seemed like a very hairy human face, right in the eyes. It was a Bigfoot not a bear after all I was so petrified that I just froze we both just starred at each other. I started to notice the creature looked sad, I just hit it with my car I would have been sad too. I did not want this thing to kill me so I did the only thing I could, I told it that I didn't know if it could understand me but that I was very sorry for hitting it with my car and that it had just startled me. The creature looked at me awhile longer and blinked it's big green eye's it nodded it's head and turned and walked away. I never saw the creature or Bigfoot again.
