top ten stories of 2000s part one
number ten 2004 red sox's
it had been eighty years sense they had won a world series. people said they were under a curse because they sold babe Ruth to the Yankees. they got close a few times but could not sea the deal. then in 2005 which was not a great season for them they defied the ODs and beat the Yankees in the play offs.
9. social networks
first there was email then chats. in the mid point of the decade, social networks came into being. the idea was to connect Friends family and make new Friends. first there was my space then there was face book which is my favorite. then twit er where you tell what you are doing. it Can be "i got hit by a car going to church" to "i just drank a cup of coffee" some think it is silly. it has certainly changed how we do things. i have been able to keep up with Friends form my high school to college to my home town you name it.
8. American idol
the TELNET search goes 21st century. the phenomena has started the carers of Kelly carkson. daughterly, mantissa, Chris sleigh, Jordan sparks cay akin and more. the odd thing is that many who won have not gone on to be that successful like Rubin.
7. 2006 Congressional elections
after the 2004 election the republican seam to be on top. bush had won reelection, republican had picked up more seats in the house and Senate. this Congress was a desester. form Terry schivo to corruption probes , Katrina, and mark Foley. i remember Sean hanity theme don't wake up with the news Nancy piosi is your new speaker of the house. i hoped that the republican would keep the congress. it was a Republican blood bath. it was a democratic revolution ike 1994. it was mostly conservative democrats who defeated republican incumbents. they voted Democrats because they had no alternative.
6. 2004 presidentle election.
seance the election of 200 the democrats saw bush as illegitimate. he stole the election. the democrats wanted to win next time. when 911 happened a coilition government emerged. everyone came to gather. politics came back. the war in Iraq was very controversial. when the war went sower an anti war sentiment emerged. Democrats thought they would win. john Kerry came in after Howard deen tanked. Kerry cam panged as a man who would fight the war better. the swift boats became a Thorn in his side. in the morning it looked like Kerry had won Ohio. bush won it slightly and won the presidency. the values voters came out to support bush. it was a shock to the democrat and a thrill to the GOP.

Forgive me for asking a n00b question. What I've gathered from reading the blog so far is that this couple plans on earning an income with this stuff? (I could probably get the answer by going directly to one of their blogs, but I refuse.) This stuff is entertaining in a train-wreck way (in that way, it's funny as hell (which doesn't exist)), but not actually INTERESTING. Thanks for sharing it so I can read without becoming one of their traffic stats.
ReplyDeleteEmily and Dan actually plan to someday live off around $500 a month. That is what they anticipate that Dan will make a s preacher. Dan doesn't make any money off his blog, Emily makes money off hers, probably almost as much as Dan currently makes working at Walmart. But Emily doesn't like money, or ever want to earn more than Dan currently earns.
ReplyDeleteThey will continue to breed and have children in poverty and feed them very little. Emily neglected her son and didn't notice that he had slipped into a coma.
God, that's really sickening. But I'm not surprised, just nauseated.
ReplyDeleteMoney isn't evil, according to scripture. The love of money is. So is letting your kids starve and slip into comas.
If you need to branch out and satirize more blogs, I'll bet there are plenty for the picking.
Sorry. This is not the writing or thoughts of an A/B student. It just isn't. My 8 yr old who hates writing can do better than this, and I'm not talking about the spelling.
ReplyDeleteI feel so sorry for Dan. A 'college' that's stealing his money and a wife who doesn't give a damn. He isn't being educated or taken care of at all.
Emily, please do contact the authorities. It truly is the very best thing you can do for your poor babies and Dan.
