The New Pledge of Allegiance

Written by a 15- year old school kid in Arizona: 

Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore because the word 'God' is mentioned....

A kid in Arizona wrote the attached

Now I sit me down in school 

Where praying is against the rule 

For this great nation under God 

Finds mention of Him very odd. 

If Scripture now the class recites, 

It violates the Bill of Rights. 

And anytime my head I bow 

Becomes a Federal matter now. 

Our hair can be purple, orange or green, 

That's no offense; it's a freedom scene. 

The law is specific, the law is precise. 

Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. 

For praying in a public hall 

Might offend someone with no faith at all. 

In silence alone we must meditate, 

God's name is prohibited by the state. 

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, 

And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.. 

They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. 

To quote the Good Book makes me liable. 

We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen, 

And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King. 

It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,

We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong. 

We can get our condoms and birth controls, 

Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles. 

But the Ten Commandments are not allowed, 

No word of God must reach this crowd. &nb sp; 

It's scary here I must confess, 

When chaos reigns the school's a mess. 

So, Lord, this silent plea I make: 

Should I be shot; My soul please take! 

Amen

5 days later

So 5 days ago, I had this idea, that I would write this story based on about 200 songs, and see where it took me. So far I'm incredibly impassioned about what I'm doing right now, and it's getting more intense every day. This is better than getting hooked to a video game.

Thanks to all of you that answered my three questions, they're helping me rough out the messages of the story. I'm finally learning the art of how to write a story. I love learning the art of how to do something, it's so amazing. And maybe it's because I'm an amatuer writer or I don't read real novels that often, but this is keeping me alive. There's a lot of crazy things that are going round my life right now, and God blessed me with this intense distraction that's making me think and dig to find the answers.

It's a lot of fun. Self-discovery is what it is. I believe everybody should do something like this, have a challenge in their life that keeps em busy for awhile. It keeps you educated and cultured. And it's very late in the morning right now, so I'm gonna go to sleep. Night.

Questions

A series of questions that I wouldn't mind you filling out:

1. What is your idea of a hero? Not a comic book character, but a true hero in reality.

2. What is your idea of true sadness?

3. Which is better: a hawk or a tiger?

Slightly random, but it would help if you gave a real answer. Thanks :)

Interesting Idea

I have started something I think could be revolutionary, slightly.

I like to write a lot, if you haven't noticed. I've also tried to write books, about random things, and I have partly succeeded with one autobiography about a part of my life, but the last dozen never made it. But I have a new idea now.

I have 23GB of music on my PC. My music is a huge part of my life, and most of it has a deep feel to it in some respect. And since playlists are handy little things, I've gathered a pretty good list of songs that get me thinking introspectively, and I ususally listen to them when I'm writing, or musing over something, to kick my head into gear. At some point, when I was having writer's block and searching through my songs, it occurred to me, why don't I write books based on songs?

It seems like a good idea. So I collected 218 songs that theoretically have the same theme, and I plan to create a storyline out of these songs collectively. It shall be an interesting task, but something that is quite intriuging to me.

So, here I go.

Geek blog

My PC is pretty screwed up currently, so much I can't play games very long before it overheats, among other problems. Regardless, I loaded the Windows 7 beta.

It's pretty much amazing. Better than I thought. It's faster than Vista AND XP. It's got all the fancy things that Vista had, plus a couple other new things that make the OS exciting. They have a revamped taskbar (the long thing that has the start menu on it), and it makes it a lot easier and faster to work with. It's very lightweight, takes up half the room that Vista does (2.43GB). The only problem with the beta I see is that it's hard to multitask when installing something new, but I think that's just cause it's not the finished product. Or because my PC's just jacked up.

Win7 isn't gonna be finished until the end of this year at least, but I can pretty much guarantee that this Windows is gonna successfully replace both XP and Vista. That is, if Microsoft hasn't pissed off and destroyed enough of their userbase the last half of his decade. And one more thing.

Google Chrome is amazingly fast. I have a normal-speed internet connection and it comes up faster than Firefox easy. It's out of the beta I believe, so if you feel adventurous, go and download it.

This concludes my geek review of experimental software. Hope it was helpful and informative lol

So far

The first six days of my new home city have been something unexplixable. I don't know how to describe it yet. I would have no words if you asked me how I'm doing, cause I haven't been able to calm down enough to think about it. It sorta feels like I'm on vacation, but also feels like I'm goin 90 down a mountain. God's been hittin me everywhere I turn and telling me what I need to focus on. I'm not in the best situation, but I'm in the best of hands.

I did have one moment to breathe this week, and in that moment I discovered I'm getting tired of changing. I've had an entire year of changing, and I don't regret it. But now, I feel like I want to stop for a little, and look at what exactly happened the last 12 months of my life. Odds are I probably won't though, I still got some more work to do.

If I'm randomly distant from some of you, it's not exactly on purpose. Just send me a message and I'll say hi again eventually :)
