The Wedding

Good morning everyone. Thank you for being here with us on this special occasion to commemorate those who fought for Australia at war. It is an honour to be here and stand before you. Before I begin I would like to acknowledge the land of the Cameragal people. I’m sure you have all heard of the ANZAC legend, but some of you may still wonder what the legend is. Gallipoli has become a symbol of Australian’s identity, achievement and existence. Although the Gallipoli campaign failed in its military…

I suppose I should start this by addressing the Elephant in the room. It’s your Birthday! The day where you celebrate another year in your life, and another day I am blessed to have you. But something else is unique about today. I am going to do what I should have done a long time ago, and tell you exactly how blessed I am to have you in my life. I know this is cliché but I honestly don’t know where to start. I suppose I’ll just jump in to it. We met nearly a year ago; at a time when neither…

Thank you so much. That's so nice. Isn't he a great guy. He doesn't get a fair press; he doesn't get it. It's just not fair. And I have to tell you I'm here, and very strongly here, because I have great respect for Steve King and have great respect likewise for Citizens United, David and everybody, and tremendous resect for the Tea Party. Also, also the people of Iowa. They have something in common. Hard-working people. They want to work, they want to make the country great. I love the…

20 months ago I had the pleasure of introducing Bruce to some of you during the primary campaign. My guess is all of you are much more familiar with the Governor now then in those days of his political infancy…for me though, he is the same guy I’ve known for decades and I’m hopeful in the next hour you too can get to know more of the man I am so fond of. As I said then, you learn a lot about a guy when you've been his next-door neighbor for over 22 years… You learn about his childish sense of…

Thank you to the chairperson. A very good morning I bid to the honourable judges, time keeper and members of the audience. I am ___________ and I am going to speak on the topic of “Happiness.” Certainly, there is no doubt that everyone would like to be cheerful in their lives. We often do a lot of things that can make us happy. However, what is happiness? I guess each of you may have different definitions of happiness. Some might say happiness is the state of being contented and satisfied…

Good morning Bob, Sir, I’ve been noticing my wife, Lori, has been coming more anxious day by day since our family has decided to move to Colorado. Last night she didn’t come to bed until 1am (please understand this is a woman who religiously gets her 8 hours). She then woke up with me before 6. I finally had to ask what was on her mind. All her stresses and anxiety stem from not having enough information to tell her boss that we are planning on moving. So, I asked what information does she…

I would like some chocolate chip pancakes and bacon please. Okay and for you sir? Ill have two pancakes with some bacon and an omelet. Will that be all? Uh yes mam for now we still have someone coming. Okay Ill be right back. Dad when is she going to get here. I mean I can't wait to meet her. From everything you've told me She sound way too good to be true. Is that her? Yes Jada that is her. My dad gets up to greet her. They say hi he introduces me. I'm so excited. She's a real beauty, and…

Yesterday afternoon my friend Edgar and I have been framed for stealing from a market far from our village, The Kingdom of Evenswell. We were trying to outrun an army, they were chasing us so we can get locked up in a dungeon. The men were so angry that we did not have time to explain what really happened, we didn’t have nothing to defend ourselves and no companion to back us up from the situation, so we kept on running and running and running. Later on, we saw a village a bargaining place I…

Let's say you and a person you've liked for a while are about to hit the town. You would go out for a fancy dinner, but being the bundle of nerves you are, you're too worried that you have anything to say. Movies are a nice, romantic experience, but there's nothing good on, and you really wanna impress this guy. Well, look no further because I have the time killer for you -- a Broadway Musical. Before you go racing off to the theatre, however, you need to make a few choices, mainly what kind of…

Today is my eighteenth birthday and I’m celebrating it with my fourteen year old brother. He’s the smartest kid I know but he still has to learn how to be a man. We were sitting on my couch eating ice cream when the television said that Japan was invading Manchuria, China (Raum, 6). My little brother Brennan was asking why they were doing such a thing. I told him not to worry because it does not concern us, because Germany already enacted the Anti-Jewish Nuremberg Laws (Raum, 6). He pretended…
