After 3.5 hours of Saturday school I decided to check out iWeb. So I made and am hosting a site now which looks pretty snazzy. You can check it out here at http://xenon3.dyndns.org This is going to change soon and I am hoping to change it to x3.somethingHERE.org. And eventually I will have a real domain name such as X3.com or something like that. In the meantime I have an Alpha version of my site up. Got one link so far and that is to my blog. Check it out and be patient its going to be slow loading up.
Also for the home page I had to have a picture so I whipped this up in Photoshop.
So in government class today we had our final exam. At the end there was an essay question
to answer. It asked "Imagine you are the President of the United States and have to deal with public debt. Discuss your ideas about it and state what you would do to eliminate it."
Here, is my answer I wrote:
I am president of the United States. Yes the president does write in purple ink. Crazy huh? I think the huge public debt is ridiculous. It is over 9 Trillion dollars. I can’t even count that high. I doubt it will ever get paid back. But if it was possible, this is what I’d do.
I would raise taxes and make new ones. Remember, this is what I would do if I absolutely had to pay back our debt. People would get really pissed and would start having seditious speeches about how they are going to gather an army of very angry taxpayers and kill me. In which case I would dispatch a SWAT team to gather them up and put their criminal behinds in jail for life followed by a little bit of capital punishment for each one of them. That’ll teach em.
Anyways, I would raise taxes and invent new ones. I would tax companies such as Microsoft and Google. Reason? Because they are more loaded than Hilary Clinton’s speeches are with BULL CRAP. I would then find illegal drug cartels and sue them for everything they’ve got and then confiscate all their drugs. I would then do some research and find out that all the Brits are a bunch of stoners and I would secretly sell all the crack to the English people. You know it would sell well. Its ENGLAND.
If you have ever seen Ocean’s 11 you would know that it is a great movie with some lovely acting. If you haven’t seen it get your lazy arse into a movie store and rent the thing before I put you in prison for life for no apparent reason. I’m the president. Thats my job. The movie shows 11 people rob three casinos in Las Vegas: The Bellagio, the MGM Grand, and.. I forgot the last tone. YES! I know it is a federal offense not to know. But you forget. I’m the president and I just pardoned myself. Back off. You don’t realize how easy it is to get off the hook when you’re president. Remember Bill? Exactly. Anyways. Yes I would rob casinos.
With the theft, the drug dealing, and the taxing of every living creature and computer company, we should pay off our debt in approximately 75 years. Why so long you ask? Because in case you haven’t noticed 9 Trillion dollars is alot of money. Why is “Trillion” capitalized you ask? Because its such a big number it has earned the right to enter the Capitalization realm. Who’s in this realm you ask? God, the Internet, Google, Will Smith (well before he decided to join that Scientology cult, now we just put “will smith” down instead), Robin Hood, Captain Hook, Waffle, Captain Jack Sparrow, Carnivore. Yes. “Trillion” is in that realm with all of those other words. It is godly. If you don’t know how much a Trillion is get your sorry self back into a public school that us, the government (notice I didn’t capitalize that word), doesn’t support or care about as much as we should. Then ask your underpaid math teacher how much a Trillion is.
If you have any more questions you can call me at 1-800-GO-DIE-YOU-STUPID-COMPLAINING-US-CITIZEN or email me at PRESIDENT@FAKE-EMAILS.COM.
THANK YOU.
About a week ago I went on our school's senior sneak. Which I was barely able to go on. I had the decision of going on this trip with the senior class, or a couple days after graduation flying down to Texas to see my Texas friend's graduation. That night I gave it some hard thought and decided to go on this trip instead of flying down to Texas. Was a hard decision to make and I hoped I wouldn't be disappointed and have regrets. So I called Mr. Birch, the dean of students and the guy in charge of the trip, at his house that night and asked if there was anyway possible I could squeeze into the trip (I was supposed to have signed up with money and permission slip about a week before). And he thought about it a bit and finally said that he thought he could make it work and told me to bring cash money and written permission from my parents to him the next morning as we were leaving. So I was really grateful for that and I thanked him. He's a good guy.
So that morning I woke up at 3 am and got ready and left to the school. At 4 am we left with a bunch of sleepy senior kids. Most of the people slept a few hours. Alex Bagley managed to wake up a few people. He got on the bus' intercom system thing and pretended he was pilot saying things like "Welcome to the flight, we may be experiencing some turbulence". And the bus driver played a long and drove on rumble strips on the shoulder of the road to simulate this "turbulence".
About 7 hours later we arrived at Tremonton, Utah and stopped at this diner called "Crossroads Restaurant" to eat breakfast. The food was good but the wait was horrendous. We were there about an hour and half before the last person in our group got their food. Many kids had been done eating for about an hour before I even saw my food. Probably wasn't expecting a group of a 55 kids to come raid their restaurant.
We then continued our way to Salt Lake City and after driving past this one high school about 4 times due to a can't-find-the-entrance-to-the-parking-lot problem, we went to the Clark Planetarium. I had been there before about 5 years ago and I surprisingly remembered it and remembered where the cool stuff were located. We wandered around for a little while and looking at the different exhibits. One of the best was the amazing Newton's Daydream which was an intricate maze that small metal balls would travel through using only gravity (see link).
The Dome IMAX was the next activity at the Planetarium. We watched a show The Ultimate Universe which looked amazing with 3D visuals of stars and planets. But got pretty repetitive and ultimately turned out to be pretty boring. When I looked around there were alot of sleeping people.
(Alex, Dakota, Adam, Dayna, Andie, and some others) went to the swimming pool where we played some Marco Polo and enjoyed the hot tub and sauna.
For dinner we went to Benihana, a Japanese restaurant where the food is cooked right in front of you by Chefs that do tricks and pretty much just show off their skills. I was pretty bummed at first when our table's chef was white (everyone else's had an oriental chef). But it turned out to be okay; the guy was pretty funny and after doing a trick said "Pretty good for a white guy huh?". The food was awesome (shrimp, teriyaki, rice, and some other great stuff) and I managed to eat it all using only chopsticks the whole time. It was a somewhat expensive restaurant and the final bill for everyone was $1,400.
Then, at around 7:20 pm, we were let loose to wander around and do whatever we wanted until about 11:30. By that time we had to be back at the hotel. First me, Alex, Dayna, Brooks, and Elijah went to the movie theatre in the Gateway Mall and bought tickets for Ironman (we were planning to see Prom Night but it wasn't showing there). Then Dayna left with some friends and me and Alex went wandering around the mall in search of a swimming suit for him. He found one at Pacsun and I decided to buy two shirts while I was there.
At 8:15 we met back at the movies and watched Ironman. All I can say is that movie is epic. Amazing. Awesome. Wow. It was alot funnier than I was expecting and it was just great. If you haven't seen it. You better change that fast. It was one of the better super hero movies I have seen in a LONG time. Except.... sadly... I fell asleep at the end of the movie so I wasn't too sure how the ending happened. I was so exhausted that day had been a long one.
The Delta Center (name is different now, dont know what it is) was just across the street from our hotel and we walked past it where a basketball game was going on. Game 6 between the Houston Rockets and the Utah Jazz. I personally was hoping for the Rockets to win (Gotta rep the H-Town) and everyone else I was with was totally for the Jazz. Unfortunately Houson lost to Utah. Everyone wanted to go see the game since it was so close. It would have been way fun.
Then we went back to the hotel and I decided to go swimming again. Skyler, Ross, Cheyenne, Andy, Beatrice, Jill and a couple others sat in the sauna for awhile (very relaxing). I was so very tired I was almost falling asleep sitting in the sauna. And I was feeling very lightheaded and couldn't walk straight. It was very strange. Then we played in the pool for awhile. Making a current and such stuff. At 11:30 everyone met in the lobby then was sent to bed.
I slept on the floor and didnt really mind because I was lucky to even have been able to come. They put in Family Guy and I watched about 15 minutes before I was out. Dakota told me the next day I had fallen asleep while texting someone.
So that was the fun first day of the Senior Sneak. Day 2 next.
