Dont play after it rains

When I was 7 or 8 I was stuck in the house because it was raining outside. When it was done raining I made it my business that I was going to go play on the monkey bars. Me and another friend went outside and I was so happy and ready to go play outside. My oldest brother Antonio was outside playing on the basketball court with his friends. while I was on the playground with my friend I made it past the first two and when I got to the third bar I slipped and feel on my left elbow. After falling I realized that I didn't want to play on the monkey bars anymore so I went to watch my brother and his friends play basketball I wasn't crying or anything. My father looked over the balcony and asked was I ready to come in and I said no. As soon as my dad went in the house I told my brother that I was ready to go in the house. When I got in the house I told my dad that my elbow hurt and he asked can I move it I told him no. After I told him no he called the hospital and they told him to tell me pick up the top to a shoe box and I couldn't pick it up. So they told him bring me in. My mother came and got me and took me there with my father and they told me it was broke :(. they poked me in my right arm I do not know why. The next day came and I was able to go home they feed me some ravioli and gave me apple juice and sent me on my way. When I got home I was out of school for a while and I stayed over my grandma house for a couple nights. My elbow got better and better and the doctor told me to help I should fold clothes and so I did that and my arm got better in no time.

Protect our rights

In class I read an article called protect our rights to anonymity. This article talked about how the government should have access to things that they don't really need access to. In this article it stated that the police but a GPS device on a drug dealers car without a  valid warrant. I believe this is invading peoples privacy because not only did the police keep track of where he was going but they didn't have a warrant. My personal opinion is that I don't think anyone should be able to tap into your phone calls or put GPS devices on your car to keep track of where you going because it's really none of there business. Also in a way the way they use facebook is kind of OK like using the tagged pictures to identify a person that the police are looking for. In the article there's a picture that talks about the article in many different ways the picture is a man on the ground crawling and eyes are all around him and this article is basically saying that everyone have there eyes on you everywhere you go.

Liberty Vs Security (Why now?)

On abcNews there's an article named "Your Thoughts: Liberty vs Security". In this article there are comments on weather we should have liberty or security. Having liberty is basically having freedom to do basically anything you want to do. Having security is basically cutting your freedom down and it takes away some of the opportunities you have. In the article one comment stated "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and loose both". I found this comment to be some what true because if you decide to give up a little liberty for security not all policemen and women do their job right so there for your liberty is going down the drain and the security that you are expecting to do something for you are really doing nothing but taking your money. Another comment that I found Interesting was a lady or a man was talking about why start this now and we haven't been attacked since then. I agree with them if we haven't been attacked since the 9/11 happened why try and take away peoples freedom to have more security. Now as far as the government being allowed to record out phone conversations and read out emails I can really care less about that because I feel they are already doing it well the email part. I also think that the government have our contacts and they can also check our phone record and see who we have been talking to. Overall I think I would be in the middle if it actually came down to choosing.  My liberty and having freedom is very important to me and I wouldn't give it up for security or people who are suppose to keep you safe and they don't do there job then that's like a smack in the face.

5 boring laptop bags

 
 
imageI was reading this blog named “10 Unique Laptop Bags for the Fashionable Techie”. in this article they showed you a picture of 10 laptop bags that they found unique. well when I was looking and reading through the blog I found 4 laptop bags that I thought were boring.
The 4 laptop bags are
1. Vax Walden
2. Patent leather carry case
3. Speck A-Line
4. Pinstripe Messenger

I choose these laptop bags to be the most boring because they looked very simple like a regular one would look.
Vax Waldon: This laptop bag is boring because it’s just green and black and looks like a regular laptop bag. it looks very simple and not colorful at all
Patent leather carry case: This laptop bag has a unique name but the bag itself is not unique well to me. this bag a a vanella color and it looks plan  it doesnt look like anyone will buy the bag
Speck A-Line: this bag doesnt look like a laptop bag. it looks more like a purse it’s really small and doesnt look lie a laptop can fit in it
Pinstripe Messenger: this laptop bag looks like it goes to a laptop but I find nothing unique about it the color doesnt really go together it makes the bad look boring.
Remember people have different opinions and these are the laptops I found that were not unique at all the other laptop bags where colorful and had pictures and was not just two plan colors. Down below you will find the link to the blog. In the blog you will fing the pictures of the laptop bags
