DEBATES KICK SOCCER BALLS (LOL).....April 24,2006/4-3
I. Well....i dnt know who won the debate yet...but i can read the future, and I garuntee that me and Hunter won (yea right!)
II. Today one of my favoritest ladies came to our class to talk about sumthin'. It was Mrs. Muth, the Coooollllest, with a capital c, guidance counselor in the land. She explained to us this new program which will mentor freshman starting next year. We will be able to fill out applications to be mentors, and I am quite interested. Then we had a daily report by none other than...drumrollll....Kaitlyn Allen. It was very good and informational. Finally, the moment we all were waiting for, another debate! Yipeee! In this debate it was on the issue on whether onr not to drop the a-bomb on Japan. Moran and Ashley debated we should have dropped the bomb, and Kevin and Charlie debated that we should not have dropped the bomb. Overall, it was a great debate. I called it a tie...i kow, i know...make up your mind...but hey it was a tough decision!
III. I learned that if the US invaded Japan in Worl War II, there probably would have been up to one million casualties. Yikees!
IV. I want to know the name of the plane that dropped one of those A-bombs...it had a cool name!
V. My opinion on the debate is that the US should have dropped the bomb on Japan. Yes it was destructive to use, but if we had waited, somebody else would have, and who knows....it could have been Japan or Germany.
