Describe the most beautiful thing you've ever seen

The most beautiful thing that I can remember seeing off of the top of my head right now would probably be when I was on a fishing trip in Canada. It was like 5:30 or 6 in the morning, and we were out on a little motorboat looking for walleye, which you can normally only catch in certain hours of the day, and we were hoping that we would get a few. The beautiful part of it was the sunrise. We were on these HUGE lakes that actually almost looked like seas when you were on the coast, and the orange-yellowish sun was just perking up over the trees on the opposite side of the lake. It was breathtaking.

Hurray!

Where do you want to be in five years? Ten years? Twenty years? How are you going to make it happen?

This is pretty late, but better late than never!

In 5 years, I want to be going to a good college and continuing my education. In ten years, I hope to be a college graduate and have a good job (possible work for my dad's business) and having a great time. (skiing, mostly) In twenty years, I hope to be financially set up at least decentlty to pursue my lifetime dream of being a ski bum. Hopefully by that time I have a great wife and possible family.

I think I'm going to get there by working hard throughout the rest of my school years and trying to get a well-paying job and possible get into owning my dad's business. (basically, hard work)

What do you think about George Bush?

I think that a new president should be put into office immidiately. I think this for a few reasons. Firstly, (in my opinion, at least) we need to get our troops out of Iraq as soon as possible. W've meddled with their business long enough and when we tried to tell Bush that we did he so nicely promised to veto that and spend more and more American money on Iraq when we could be worrying about things that the people of America think are more important.

Another thing that I think isn't acceptable about this country's president is his immigration policy. Didn't someone say something like everyone is created equal? Hmmm..... And yet we still are placing defensive boundries around our country to keep visitors out despite that.

These are only 2 reasons that I don't like George Bush, and though there are a few more I won't go into detail about them as I would probably bore anybody who read this to death.......

PS- on the Iraq war- didn't Bush say a quote like "This war started on my watch, but it will end on yours" ? Hmmm. sounds to me like someone made a mess and doesn't want to clean it up himself..........
