on srptember 22, 2010 , new york photographer Jay Fine captures the first known image of the statue of liberty being struck by lightning. this event, (although extrordinary) is actually verry common, in fact lady liberty has been known to be struck by 600 bolts of electicty every year since she was built in 1886.
Jay fine has been trying to capture this image for over 40 years it took the 58 yearold 81 shots before getting this perfect one. this is what he had to say"I had been watching weather reports so I knew a storm was coming and it just seemed like a great opportunity."
"I was ready and waiting when the lightning finally started and took 81 shots before finally getting this one."
"I was shocked when I realised what had happened."
"It was pure luck really, a once in a lifetime opportunity. It's the first photograph of its kind I have ever seen." and im sure many agree that capturing such an event is verry difficult to do and so I would like to write a shout out to Mr.Fine, gratifying him for taking the time to capture this magnificent event for all to see.

should homosexuals be allowed in society ?
the year was 2007,the day was wendsday, me and my freinds were relaxing on the gym bleechers, when suddenly a bizzar looking young man came in and sat on the bleecher across the room from us, this was the first time I spotted one, and to this day his image still brings a feeling of sickness and remorse.ecause I hadnt aproched,him and for my cowardlyness the soul that could've been saved never was.
50 years ago these people were never allowed to reviel themselves and now its an ordinary thing. today I spoke to afew of my class mates to find what they had to say in the matter. mrs. marrisa said," I dont have a problem, with them theres nothing wrong with them. Mrs. Alisa said, I dont think thers anything wrong with them, I think people should just leave everyone alone," this just proves my point that its becomming something ordinary in todays society.

5 things that I find rather frustrating
the first thing is the homosexuals and there supporters, because these fools have forgotten the law on which this nation was built on, by supporting theese peoples abominable sin were only promoting it to the point where it will be something ordinary of society.
the 2nd,people who see it fit to drink and take drugs, because instead of helping their troubles it increses them and shortens thir life
the 3rd, churchs that have gone liberal, because it is a waste of property, for nothing truthful is being taught there.
the 4th, atheist, these people hopelessley belive that there is no creator and there the ones that said my mom will surely die.
finaly, young children who have relations before their wedding day. this is what our soiety is saying to do, and all it does is over populate our planet with unwanted children.

improvements
today I decided to take a quick look at my blog and discovered that I've only made 2 posts with only 1 picture. and the first post Ive made is just a brief description of my plans for this blog whiles the second is just a feature profile of my teacher.and although they're easy to read, I dont have any hyper links and have alot grammatical errors.so in order to improve this blog I,ll try to check my spelling more often, add more hyperlinks and I'll try to make posts that are more on my initial topic and contain more info. I've decide to base my blog on bigblockflix.blogspot.com. today I decided to add more pictures.

my teacher
its incredible what you can learn from your elders in just a few minutes of talking to them.
this is what I learned from my teacher.
his age is39
he has a masters degree and teaches secondary education
he was born in quantico, virginia naval hospital
he likes teaching journalism because its exciting
running gives him time alone
hes eclectic with his clothes and music
he looked up to his aunt robin
his hobies include: spending time with his sons, homerepair,reading and watching movies.
he likes where he is now and dousnt have a dream
his child hood memory is when they were driving in a station wagon and throwing weeble wabbles out the window.
if he could invite anyone to dinner he would invite david cronenberg.
if he could have any power he would chose flight.
he remindes me of langston hughes because he has good speech.

my comment
I also enjoyed the many wonderous works of august wilson. but the one that appealed to me the most was fences, because it contained the most drama and emotion. also the plot line seemed the most interesting to me.
