people say that it was a meteorite or an asteroid, why wasn’t there a crater where it hit? There is so much to still be investigated on the Tunguska Explosion, but I think a powerful bomb made the explosion. I think maybe someone wanted to start a little war, but it never happened. “It is like a one-hundred year old murder mystery” (Kelley).

The Little Things “Mom what’s a pillow fort?” I looked at my Mom sitting on the couch next to me,”Allison you don’t know what a pillow fort is?” She looked at me smiling and said,”We’re gonna build one ok? Lemme me move the couches…” I remember at that moment being so excited, just thinking “Wow! I’m going to have my own fort!” I ran around the house helping my mom get all the blankets and pillows needed for my little sanctuary. When it was all said and done it looked a lot worse than I had…

Alcott, L. M. (1997). A long fatal love chase. New York: Dell Pub. Louisa May Alcott is best known for Little Women and her other juvenile fiction, but she also wrote gothic thrillers. A Long Fatal Love Chase is one of these and has been referred to as a "bodice-ripper" by reviewers. Originally written for serialization in 1866, after her travels in Europe and about two years before Little Women was published, her manuscript was rejected as "too long and too sensational". Several years later,…

struck twelve and your coach is about to be nothing more than a pumpkin and you don’t want your prince seeing you dressed like that do you. Now hurry along child, go !

Through ups and downs, the story concludes happily and everything is a fairytale ending. That’s what fairytales are--happy endings, right? In today’s society, when we hear…

social network site. I had been out with a bunch of friends walking around the town, as I often did, and came home to what I thought was a random friend request on Myspace accompanied by a message. I did not know who it was at first until I dug a little deeper, saw a couple of photos and mutual friends. Then it struck me – it was Jimi D! In the message he wrote about how he had noticed me walking around town. At this time, he was already way old enough to have his own vehicle and drive around…
