The Newscast

The newscast has been going okay. I think that it could be better and that it needs a video. But other than that I think that the script is strong. Our speaking time is equal so we should be okay in that area. I would also like to find a background that would go good with our topic. Our topic is on the Notre Dame soccer team and their win. I like the topic because there is a lot to write about and a lot to say. I think that if we get a video and some good pictures of the game we could have a really good newscast.

Things I am Thankful for

The number one thing on my list without a doubt that I am most thankful for is my family. If I did not have my family I think I would die. A close second on my list is my friends. To me my friends are practically like family and I couldn't imagine my life without them. I am also thankful for my dog. I love my dog because he is so cute and awesome! Another thing I am thankful for is my school. Even though I do not always like school I am thankful for the things that I am taught and I think that I am lucky to get the opportunity to be here. 

My Invention

If I had to choose any item in the world to invent I think that I would invent a teleportation booth. I know that it is not completely original but I still think that it would still be really cool. My version would come custom made with all types of colors and accessories. And if you use my invention and a fly happens to be in the machine it will not morph the two of you together like they always do in TV shows and whatnot. And with my invention you would not have to have another machine at the end of your destination. It would travel at the speed of sound and there would be no way of an accident happening. It would be a safe alternative to driving, flying, riding bikes, etc. I would share my invention with the world because it would be sort of pointless to keep it to myself. But don't get me wrong I would charge a small fee so I could make a profit. I commented on Marissa Dunkerley's blog.

Political Cartoon

This cartoon shows that today our economy is so sensitive that it can not even handle a few jokes. I think that if we loosened up a little we would all be a little happier and open for more ideas and oppurtunities that may end up helping our economy.

Inspiration

I chose this picture, not because I'm obsessed with old people, but because I think that it is inspiring to know that even when you're old you can go out dancing with your friends and/or loved ones and have a good time. I hope that when I am older in my years and matured that I will be going out every Saturday night with my friends and wearing a square dancing outfit and shoes and dancing until I can't dance anymore. This may be a different form of inspiration than what others have chosen but then again I am not like others.

Podcast

My podcast experience was fairly easy going. Probably the hardest part about the project was thinking of the scary movie I wanted to choose. After that it was smooth sailing. I liked the project because we could add in the jingles and the other affects that we thought went with our topics. The movie I chose was the House of Wax. I thought it would be a good movie to talk about because many people have not seen it or even heard of it. I had a little trouble at first adding the jingles but after I got some help I think I did pretty good. I commented on Marissa Dunkerley's Blog.
