An old man from China who made other vases made me.
I was in his store for a long time.
Then my maker sold me to a merchant.
He traveled far and wide, trading objects for objects.
Finally he traded me, for a sword.
My new owner was young, but he knew his way around the desert.
It was peaceful for a while but then 5 people with swords attacked him.
They stole me and killed my owner.
Then they went to Europe and traded me for sword.
Now I lived with a queen.
I lived with her for as long as I can remember.
I could only faintly remember the workshop in which I was made.
I was traded to another trader.
The queen thought the vase that I was traded for was more beautiful then me.
I thought different.
My new owner went around for a few years but died on his way to Kashgar.
And then I was left alone.

Royal Caribbean’s biggest cruise ship ever, Margra, was passing by Venice. She was all white with six blue and grey dolphins. She had fifteen swimming pools, twenty gyms, ten movie theaters, four waterslides, twenty-three restaurants, 14 casinos, 15 game rooms, 3,000,500 suites and 25 lounges. She was carrying her full load, 31,000 people, 400 crew and 115 police. She had four huge engines and a lot of endurance.

A gang of evil people wanted her to crash into Venice. They had a grudge against Royal Caribbean because they were very picky eaters and the cooks in Margra accidentally burned some maple syrup for their french toast. They were George W. Bush, Careet “Carrot” Baldman, Rudy Giuliani and Alexander Backsnout. Their prisoners were Barrack Obama and Hilary Clinton. George was exiled out of America for being such a bad president and Alexander is Albert Einstein’s great-great-great-great-great-great-grandson. He thought up the “plan”.

Introduction

In the next few paragraphs I will tell you how the northwest Native Americans hunted and fished five hundred years ago. Back then Native Americans were only Native Americans. It was pre European contact. Pre means before so pre European contact means before European contact. If you want to learn more about the northwest Native Americans and how they fished and hunted keep on reading.

Hunting

The Native Americans in the northwest mostly fished but they did some hunting too. The northwest Native Americans hunted a verity of animals from grasshoppers to antelopes. To get the grasshoppers they burn the grass they are in and when the fire is over they collect the grasshoppers. Then they roast them and eat them while they are still crisp. They hunted prairie dogs and lots of other stuff but mostly they hunted JACK RABBITS! For larger prey, they usually used snares and deadfalls. Snares are ropes with a loop at the end attached to a bent over sapling. When an animal steps in one a trigger makes the sapling snap up. When the animal is trapped they kill it. Deadfalls are holes covered up so they look like ground. Those were most of the ways to hunt animals on the northwest coast.

Warriors Book 1: Into the Wild

By Erin Hunter

The first book I would recommend to you is Warriors Book 1: Into the Wild. It is about a housecat named Rusty and his adventures in the forest. All it takes is one hop, and hop off his garden fence into the wild forest, to change his life. Follow Rusty as he ventures into the forest and goes through different names. Erin Hunter is an excellent author and she makes her books so you feel like you can’t stop them.

I am from taking a bus to school on the whistling windy street.
I am from sledding down at suicide hill at 91st street in Riverside Park in winter.
I am from clearing the freezing snow from my grandmother’s driveway, and sometimes (Read on …)
