The fable of the Blue Ringed Death


   "I wonder what it is?" Thought Jimmy as he spotted a little blue circle off in the water. His parents had told him not to go into the water, the water didn't look so deep, and this was his first time, so his parents would understand. Instead of listening to his parents words, he started for the water. "Maybe I could bring it back to mom and dad to show that I'm big enough to go into the water." He thought. As he got closer he saw more of the blue circles. They moved. The little boy stuck his hand into the water and grabbed a hand full of the blue rings, they grabbed his arm with strong little tentacles. He screamed, then started to feel sick the. He saw what the blue ring were, they were the blue rings on a blue ringed octopus one of the most poisonous animals in the world. By disobeying his parents the last thing Jimmy heard was his mother calling for him. The last thing he ever saw were the terrifying blue rings of the octopus. And at that time, Jimmy realized that his first time at the beach was his last because he disobeyed the fifth commandment that says, “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God is giving you." Exodus 20:12

But today we'll be focusing on the "school" part. As part of my school curriculum I have been required to read a list of books, either high-bred fiction or great history. The reading of great literature has been a big part of my life, and had a beautiful influence. And the most recent of these that I've read was The Strange Case of Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Thus, because of how it influenced me, this story will be our topic of discussion. And for the sake of us both we shall refer to it as merely as Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was written in 1885 by Robert Louis Stevenson, and to this day remains one of the greatest works of art we have. Yes, I d...

With knowledge comes great power.

This painting, in my mind, is trying to show that in books comes knowledge. And with that knowledge great empires can be built. But let me say that the fall of many great peoples was not because of the lack of knowledge, but the lack of how to use that knowledge in accord with wisdom.

See how easily you can make a delicious potato breakfast

Did you wake up this mourning to you stomach growling. Did you look in the fridge only to find a couple of uncooked potatoes and a stick of butter. Now all you need is a frying pan and your good to go. Put the pan on the stove to heat up, stick some butter on the pan and chop up the potatoes. By the time you have chopped the potatoes the pan should be heated and the butter is probably melted.
