Baseball Haiku

The roar of the croud
It makes me feel so alive
Now let's play some baseball.

Wrench and Klink 2

                                                                        Prologue
After we defeated Palpatine, he vanished along with Captain Solo, and our next big adventure is about to start.

Somewhere in an unknown galaxy: " Mrs. Chedderworth I think we have our next soldier," A mysterious voice said.

" Where are we?" I asked as I found myself in a little ship with this big fat man standing in front of me. The man told me his name was Mr. Whatsahooset and that he needed me to go get a new experiment he made and to join his cause at Megacorp. " We'll do it I said not consulting my partner Klink. Mr. Whatsahooset gave us a ship and it lead us to this little cruising ship. We got on the ship and found the experiment which was a little blue thing, then a figure looking like Darth Vader came out behind a doorway and grabbed the blue creature. The thief got away from us with the experiment but we did manage to get the coordinates to the next place he was going.

" Going to that place was a pointless waste of time," Klink said as we had only gotten a small gadget and began going back to the ship. We began doing a cat and mouse game for a while until we got the experiment and the directions to a desert planet where Mr.Whatsahooset came and got the experiment which is called the Protopet. As he was landing his ship knowing full well that our ship was there he landed on it and we had to find some desert crystals to get it repaired.

" Do you have the amount of crystals I have requested?" This hippie dude said as we came to him with our pockets overflowing with the crystals. " Ah yes these are the right crystals, now watch as my magic does its work, om, om, om." Then as if by magic my ship was all new and ready to fly.

Our next stop was this facility where it had high security but it also had rewards like new armour and new weapons. We had to fight a huge way to get the next location which was to a place called Blackwater city. As we were on planet Joba though we got to use our new glider and flew up to this place where a computer charged us 20,000 bolts for a transmission to this planet made of ice. " I'm not paying that, this galaxy blows," I said in anger.

" Wrench if you don't pay the money then we won't be able to stop Mr. Whatsahooset from having the Protopet destroy the Megacorp factory," Klink said encouraging me. We flew to the ice planet of Ragnar and managed to get to the Megacorp factory. We battled our way to the door where the Protopet was being held when Klink's little robot girlfriend came to tell us not to do it. Then almost in an instant Mr. Whatsahooset shot the little robot down and revealed himself as ... Captain Solo.

" Ok just what the heck is going on?" I asked completely peeved off. Then Solo hit a switch on this remote and it turned the Protopet into a huge violet creature. We had defeated the ugly gigantic Protopet when I had heard a noise come from a supply closet.  I opened the door and found the real Mr. Whatsahooset and he took one look at the remote and knew that the batteries were in backwards.

Then we had forgotten Solo and we saw him sitting on Klink. (Muffled) "Get off of me Lardo I am not a chair. Once we had finally gotten him off of Klink we got back to our ship and went to our condo in Metropolis.

                                                                          Epilogue
We finished off the Protopet and our adventure was about to make an " EXCITING" turn.

Sometimes, People are Cruel

It happens every day, people kill themselves, kill others, put their lives at risk, and all because of bulling.

Sometimes they pick on you and it just won't stop. Sometimes you pick on them and the bullies become the bullied. Sometimes the wind bullies the land. And afterwards we end up hurting someone.

Sometimes, people are cruel.

When it is, we all do the same thing. We either put ourselves down or we put others down. We weep and mourn, we recover, and then it all happens again. This is a price of being bullied.

Sometimes, people are cruel, and you have a choice keep being bullied or to speak up. When it is your turn to make your move, you do.

But what if you always bully people?

Surly some victims, beaten down can be helped for thinking it's always there turn, just days after the worst victims saw their dreams smashed by the strongest swirly they have ever known, which felt like a 7.0 on the Richter scale. Surly, the rest of us watching the action, from afar experiencing the horror and intensity from the comfort of our chairs and bleachers, are pushed to watch this thing.

What's worse, this kid is super smart. Bad enough his history of bullies insecurities and low self-esteem, of being tortured by the bullies when he is being exploited by them. Bad enough all that, yet at the end of the day, he felt so much pain, torture, grief, and insults by the bullies.

Sometimes, though, if the people themselves are not conspiring against the smart kids in the world.

After April 20, 1999 when there was a school shooting that killed 12 school kids and 1 teacher, On September 11, 2001 there was a terrorist attack that attacked the Pentagon and the World Trade Center, on september 21, 2011 a 14 yr old kid also killed himself because he was bullied so much at school, what we were doing to Iraq in the war was bad because we killed some innocent people.

Sometimes, people are cruel. To get hurt by so many people, scanning out for people getting beat up in Ohio, charting shootings in Florida, running from bullies in California, is to understand this in the view of the bullied people. It is to breath a prayer that begins, " There, by the grace of the lord..." It is to write doctors notes, hall passes, volunteer time to protect, even in the doing, these things are small compared to the need, inconsequential against the torment of the people whose turn is endless.

But what else can you as a person do? As the bullied people put it, " life is to short when you are getting bullied." Even less we have the ability to stop these tormentors that burn us in the heat of the moment: Why are the most vulnerable repeatedly picked on the most?

We are unable due to our own limitations, so we can only do what we can do, only send help and tell others. And watch, drawn by the courage it takes, as we do what the people we bully always do, the thing which they have done for a long time.

Just watch and never react. Put ourselves down or put others down. Weep or mourn. Recover from our pain. Go on. And show the world once again that we don't have to be bullied, despite all the bullies of this Earth.

Wrench and Klink

I was working on my star ship on my home planet of Yavin when all of a sudden I here a loud (boom) in the distance. I go to check it out and I see this little robot that is not any bigger than a pencil. "Do you need any help sir?"

"No I almost have it I am just missing one small piece." Then Klink examined the star ship and he said the exact piece I was missing which was a robotic ignition system. We blasted off and the flames from my ship followed me like the sparklies trailing off of a my little pony. "Woo hoo so that is where I have been all of this time, ok now we are looking for captain Solo which is on planet Novalis.

When we were on planet Novalis we saw that a huge battle had already commenced but we did manage to find a plumber who gave us an infobot who gave us a transmission for where the top racer Sheldon Marx is stranded on a planet. We also found this old man who used to work for the evil Chairmen Palatine of the blarg race, and the old man gave us a transmission to a planet which actually captain Solo talking about his friend and his training course.

Since we were looking for captain Solo first we flew there passed his training course and got his grappling hook. On that planet we also found another transmission which had this robot general on planet Euroda where his goal was to chop down all the trees and get all other resources for chairmen Palatine. Once we got to planet Euroda after visiting planet Jupiter where we freed Sheldon Marx and found his agent we located the robot and defeated him. The robot gave us a transmission to planet Venus where we would find Captain Solo.

"We finally get to meet Captain Solo, this is so impressive, he can help us defeat Chairmen Palpatine." Kilink said. 

"Hello gentlemen, would you guys like to help me defeat a giant rancor?" Which is a ginormous green monster with tremendous power. Solo asked.

"Yes sir." Klink said without my consent.

"Perfect just meet me at my headquarters." Solo said.

We got to Solo's headquarters and defeated it so we could see the captain clearly. "Hello boys, step into the ring of fire, I mean hero's so you can start helping me out."

"Did he say fire?" I asked.

"No this is it Wrench we have reached our goal so let's go." Klink said.

(beep the remote said) "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" I said falling down.

"Goodbye Captain Wrench." Solo said

"Get off of me you idiot" I said to Klink as my head started filling with rage. Klink and I found an infobot as we got in our ship and it showed us the planet of Pokitaru where it showed us the exact place to get the O2 mask so we could get on to Palpatine's base We saved the planet of Pokitaru from Palpatine's ships dumping waste into the water's and now have the O2 mask.

We flew to Palpatine's base and we saw that his flagship had just left the base with the deplanetizer which can blow up a whole planet. We did however find Solo we shot his plane down and found a new ship so we can now catch up to Palpatine. "Look there he is Klink, Chairmen Palpatine." I said excitedly. We rushed over to see him and his smug look on his face. 

"You bumbling idiots you have came all of this way to save your planet and now you are going to see it blow up in your face literally. So poetic isn't it?" We fought Palpatine in two stages while I was on Giant Klink and while I was running after the poor little man. I got off of Giant Klink because Palpatine had shrunk him down to normal size after we hurt him enough. While I was on land we go onto the deplanitizer and fought on it. "You poor saps don't have a clue, once I hit this switch a timer will commence and all you have worked for will be for not," Chairmen Palpatine said with a look of sheer satisfaction.

"Come on Klink we have got to stop that timer," I said confidently

(Timer) "Your planet will blow up in 5 minutes. Klink and I stopped the timer with 4 minutes and 45 seconds left then we had to fight Palpatine. Once he hit the timer again it took us little bit longer because we had to escape him and we now had only 2 minutes left. We had hit him some more and then once we had defeated Palpatine and we blew him to his new planet, we had totally forgot the timer. (Timer) "Your dreams will be crushed in 10 seconds, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5.

"Klink we really need to stop the timer," I said in a panicked tone

"I can't the servos in my arm appear to be broken."

"Fine then I will do it myself."

(Timer) " 3, 2, 1. Commencing shut down process, have a nice day." After that Klink and I were hanging off of the edge of the deplanetizer and we fell but we did survive.

"Hey tin can let me fix that arm," I told Klink. I fixed his arm and little did we know we were about to go on another journey but that is for another time.

What I Think of the Three Stooges Movie

The movie was top notch in humor unless you don't like slapstick humor then it won't be awesome. You have Larry and Curly the brainless ones, then you have Moe who is the leader of the group, and when you mix them together you get trouble in funny ways. The main point of the story is three knuckle heads live at an orphanage that is getting shut down due to all the expenses that the orphanage is down by.

My favorite scene was when Larry, Moe, and Curly were up fixing a bell on the orphanage that they live in. It was so funny because Larry took a coffee break and Curly said "hey are those doughnuts, I want one."

"Sure Larry said." Then Moe got up and took doughnuts and shoved them into Curly's ears.

"Get back to work you knuckle head" Moe said.

"I think you got doughnuts in my ears Moe." Larry got up and tried helping Curly by looking for a doughnut remover. He saw a sign that said DO NOT REMOVE and read it as DOUGHNUT REMOVER. They then removed the pin or "doughnut remover"to the bell which afterward fell and hit the nun that worked at the orphanage on the head. Then silence.

In my mind this troublesome trio are not the brightest bulbs on the tree.

I give this movie 5 stars just due to how stupid but funny it is. The director did an amazing job at picking the cast because these three are just the way I imagined they would look like. Eventually though they don't get the money to save the orphanage but they do get something better. Want to know what it is? I guess you will have to see the movie to find out.

Warning:  This movie may cause severe laughter.

What I think about Rx (so far)

This is such a cool book so far. You have this girl that is part if a really smart group of kids but is also now doing drugs so she can become smarter. Thyme Gilcrest the main character in the book stole this drug called Ritalin from her friend Will and now the Ritalin is helping her become a better student.

I think she is taking the drug either because she grew up with her parents doing drugs or she is doing it so she can become more popular. Ever since Thyme has been taking the Ritalin she has done better in worldciv so I think it could be making her smarter the more she takes. She could also be taking the drug because she was doing bad in the math timed quizzes so she could be taking it so she could be doing it so she can feel like she is getting smarter.

Thyme went to this party with the 20 which is made of the smartest kids in school. Of course though Thyme took the ritilan so she could fit in which I think is ridiculous.

Hunger Games Movie review

I saw the Hunger Games movie yesterday and let me just say, BLEW MY MIND. In my mind out of 5 stars I would give it a 4 and a half. I say that because it followed the book very well but it just left out some minor details. 
This movie is so full of action and if you don't like seeing people get their neck snapped or hit by fireballs, then don't watch it, but if you do then this is the movie for you. The cast was so good that whenever you looked at them after you have read the book, then you can picture them, and they look perfect. The directing was also amazing because when someone got stung you can see the hallucinations that they were having like blurry vision.
I loved the part where the giant dog jumped out and attacked Katniss and Peeta. My really only dislike is the fact of where Katniss got the mockingjay pin.
The part that made me cry was when Rue got hit with a spear and Katniss could not help her and Rue died. All and all though the movie was fantastic and I would recommend it to anybody.
