Monkees

I like the Monkees. They're a great band. I like Micky Dolenz, the drummer. I have all the episodes. Their names are Micky, Mike, Peter and Davy. They play a lot of music. Here are the ones, I like: "Pleasant Valley Sunday", "Daily, Nightly", "Listen To The Band" and the theme.

Mickey is very funny and does a lot of crazy stuff. So, if you happen to meet him - be careful. He may trick you. The picture you see is a poster on my bedroom wall. In the episodes, Micky got chased by a lot of girls and so did Davy. My favorite episode is when they meet Frankenstein.

If you are a kid, and you don't know who they are, then you better find out. You would like their music and the show. And it beats all the yucky shows now like Hannah Montana. My mom made me a shirt that looks like their shirts with all the buttons. I dress up and sing their songs some times.

Comics

I like comic books. On Sundays, I read the "funnies" in the newspaper. There is this website where you can find all these comic strips each day. http://news.yahoo.com/comics;_ylt=AiqSLMfqtVQRFH_dmwc8Uox7U84F My favorite ones are Peanuts, Marmaduke, Heathcliff and Garfield. This website is cool, so read, read, read. You can even look at the ones from the past. And you can print out the ones you want to keep. If your day is boring, then go to this website and have a little laugh.

Volkswagens Galore

Yesterday, I went to a Volkswagen show. It was on the other side of Winston-Salem. My parents and friends went with me. There were a lot of VWs there. One of my (older) friends was going to buy one, but he did not. There were a lot of car sales and a lot of car parts and stuff like t-shirts, stickers, steering wheels, lights and other things that I don't know what they are, for sale. A lot of cars were there, like regular VWs, VW buses, VW trucks, VW motorcycles and Dune Buggies. And there were a lot of weird things like a VW made into a grill, two Herbie the Love Bugs and a small car and a big car that looked the same. The big one was named Super Pickle and the other one was called Small Pickle (they looked like pickles.) There was a motorcyle made out of a VW. It was funny. It was hard to stay alive there because there were a lot of cars trying to hit you.

My dad has a Volkswagen. When I grow up, I want a Volkswagen myself. (The picture is my dad's car.)

Flea Market

The flea market is not a place to get fleas, but a place to shop. In October, the flea market turns into the State Fair. There are some freaks at the flea market and some friends. It opens only on weekends and Black Fridays. Here are the freaks that are there:

Once upon a time, there was a guy who cleaned people's sneakers. When you walked by with sneakers on, he would yell at you "Your sneakers look dirty. Let me clean them." We just ignored him.

Then there's the five-dollar-smurf-lady. She's a lady who sets up at the Virginia flea market, too. She buys old toys like smurfs and sells them for five dollars. Too pricey!

There is a portable restaurant that sells Mexican food. It's logo is a guy not with muscles, but tacos instead!

Also, there is a guy who sells movies. He says "Going out of business. DVDs five dollars," but he has not gone out of business. I wish he would. He's been going out of business for five years.

Another guy sets up and sings, trying to be Elvis or something. Today, he had a kid playing the drums with him.

And today, there was a guy who was selling his things with a friend, I guess. He was mad, because his friend kept sitting on the table. He told him to stop or he would smack him! He said he was going to smack him about ten times while we stood there. There are more freaks I haven't mentioned. It's not always the same freaks one week to another.

My friends sell me books, knick-knacks, drinks, hotdogs, furniture and dvds. I know you will enjoy going to the flea market, when it's not too hot or cold.

Beautiful Joe

Beautiful Joe, a dog rescued from the SPCA was once abused by a mean guy. When he was a puppy, the guy took him and cut off his ears with scissors! I think that's horrible and it just makes me want to cry. The dog might have been put in a pen to fight with other dogs. He would have been dead if the SPCA hadn't rescued him and (the police) arrested the owner for his abuse. I think that guy's punishment should be to cut off his ears. I think that it's terrible how people treat animals.

He was named Beautiful Joe from a book called "Beautiful Joe" (by Margaret Marshall Saunders, 1893), because it was about an owner who cut off his dog's ears and tail. I'm looking to find that book and I hope to meet Beautiful Joe one day. Even though he doesn't have ears, he has love in his eyes and heart. (About Beautiful Joe - http://www.spcawake.org/site/TR?team_id=2520&fr_id=1050&pg=team )

Always remember, you can donate food, money and supplies to the SPCA. The SPCA is kind and loving people that help poor or hurt and homeless animals. And don't forget, you can fill your house and heart with a pet from the SPCA.

Just Plain Stupid

My mom made me mix macaroni. No, that's just a tongue twister. Ha, ha. Here's the real thing - my mom made me look at this stupid website. It's just plain stupid. Here it is: http://www.flockofmullets.com/ . Now you have found out how stupid it is and how crazy my mom is. Don't watch it again! It will ruin your day.

Yesterday

Yesterday, I woke up and my cat was on my head. Then, I ate breakfast and let the dogs out. I got dressed and went outside to get the dogs and they jumped into the bushes. After that, I started school. My book only asked one question. Then, I ate my lunch. It was a peanut-butter sandwich with spinach and olives on it. I had a tomato milkshake, too.

Later, I played with my hula hoop. Two squirrels and five chipmunks came and watched me. A woodpecker came and knocked on our door. I answered it and it flew away. Then, I climbed out the window and landed on a turtle and a hare {I think they were racing}.

After that, I got on the back of the couch and fell behind it. I could not get out. So, I went under it. I met a daddy-long-legs and made friends with him. Then, I stood on my bed and fell down and went to sleep. End of story!

April Fool's! Got you!
