Hi all!

In my Astronomy book, they teach you about the sun and planets and stuff!!! It’s really, really cool!!!! Here’s something I wrote for the sun!

The Sun

Did you know it’s not good to stare at the sun? Why? First, I’ll tell you some facts and

then I’ll tell you why it’s not good to stare! The sun is very active. The fire on the sun is

jumping, hopping and rolling about, just like something a campfire would do. Sunspots

are cooler than the rest of the sun. Sun spots are 4,500 degrees, but that is still very cool

compared to the rest of the sun. Many scientists believe that sunspots affect the weather

here on earth. Now, do you want to know why it’s not good to look at the sun? Good!

Even though the sun is 92,935,700 miles away it’s still very bad to stare. Why?

It will ruin your retina. Pronounced ret-tin-uh. The sun is about a million times brighter t

light bulb. And, looking at a light bulb hurts, doesn’t it? The sun is so bright, that if you

stand on Pluto, the farthest planet away from the sun, it will still hurt your eyes! Now do

see not to stare at the sun? It will hurt your eyes very bad!

CREDITS: Most of this info was taken from my science book Exploring Creation with Astronomy. I just jumbled all the info all around

Leave a comment and tell me how you like it

Look at the picture above and you can see where this guy broke through the guardrail,
right side where the people are standing on the road (pointing). The pick-up was traveling
from right to left when it crashed through the guardrail. It flipped end-over-end, across
the culvert outlet, and landed right side up on the left side of the culvert, facing the opposite direction from which he was traveling.
Now look at the 2nd picture below…

Those are some of the two of the most amazing pictures i have ever see!

enjoy!

Twas the month before Christmas

When all through our land,

Not a Christian was praying

Nor taking a stand.

See the PC Police had taken away,

The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing,

About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.

It might hurt people’s feelings, the teachers would say

December 25th is just a “Holiday”.

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit

Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!

CD’s from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod

Something was changing, something quite odd! 

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa

In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.

As Targets were hanging their trees upside down

At Lowe’s the word Christmas - was nowhere to be found.

At K-Mart and Staples and Penny’s and Sears

You won’t hear the word Christmas; it won’t touch your ears.

Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty

Are words that were used to intimidate me.

Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen

On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton!

At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter

To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith

Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace

The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded

The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

So as you celebrate “Winter Break under your “Dream Tree”

Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.

Choose your words carefully,

choose what you say

I hope you like this

Katie
