In west philidelphia born and raised on the playground is where i spend most of my days. chillin out maxin` relaxin` all cool and all shootin` some b ball outside of the school when a couple of guys who were up to no good. started causin` trouble in my neighborhood. I got in one little fight and my mom got scared and said your movin` with your auntie and uncle in bel air. I whislted for a cab and when It came near the license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror. If anything I scould say that this cab is something but I thoght naw forget it. Yo homes tyo bel Air! I pulled up to the house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabbie "Yo homes, smell you later" looked at my kingdom I was finally there, to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel AIr. BOOYAH! now you know the lyrics to the fresh prince of bell  Air. Save maybe one word that I didnt know. That show is so iconic for a 90`s kid, and it is incredibly hard to find one who doesnt know it. If you do find a 90`s kid that doesnt know this song, it is a crime punishable by death. Maybe not, but they will be banned from society! well, maybe not, but they WILL carry the tiitle of epic loser for all eternity...or at least until they die. Hey!...maybe it is punishable by death after all. What a happy ending. O, my hand hurts now. please tell us to stop writing.

I almostwrecked twice on the way to class. partly becacuse perople are retarded, and partly because I fell asleep at a light. I know I really shouldnt drive when Im this tired but what the eff am I suposed to do about it. I dont know why I even asked that question. Typing is really difficult for me lately because I have been haveing this weird thing where my hands shake and i drop stuff, or cant pick things uop right. I hope its nothing serious. I would be Disapointed if i got one of those silly ndegernerative nerve diseases or something. I think my life would end. Dramatic!!!

My former coworker als called me her porcelean doll. kind creepy, but I guess thats what you get when you avoid the siun and hev pasty white skin. one thing is for sure, ill lookk much better that those orange girls running around when im older, tanning agaes people so much. speaking of looking good when youre older whats wrong with just a wee bit of botox when im 50?

Harrison Bergeron

Kurt Vonnegut is the author of the essay “Harrison Bergeron”, an outrageous story about a futuristic world where everyone is equal and required by law to alter their selves if they are above average. Although this is an entertaining story, Vonnegut is suggesting that people are persuaded into thinking that the handicaps are needed, even though they affect people negatively. The author tells that George Bergeron must wear a handicap radio in his ear that makes a startling sound every few seconds to keep him from being more intelligent than others. However, Vonnegut writes that the sound in Georges` ear was “such a doozy that George was white and trembling, and tears stood on the rims of his red eyes.” (294) When Georges` wife notices he is not feeling well she suggests that he take off his handicap for a short time, in which case George replies saying “If I tried to get away with it, then other people`d get away with it and pretty soon we`d be right back to the dark ages again, with everybody competing against everybody else. You wouldn`t like that would you?” (295) In essence Vonnegut is expressing that even though George is affected negatively, he still insists on wearing his handicap because he believes it is the law, and for the better of humanity.
