If I were Sam Fisher I would do the same thing.  I would go after the people who killed my brother with a disease.  I would find them question them for answers about the things that are happen and what happened to him.  Also, I would go follow his foot steps and find out what was going on and why he ended up dead for it.  I would make sure to stop what ever is going to happen during the time that I would be investigating to find out whats going on and how to stop it.

I'm surprised that the North Koreans were helping during the book. The North Koreans are a communist country and why would they be helping the people that they are helping.  What was the point of them helping and what is in it for them.  North Koreans do not help a lot but in this book they did.  At the end I found out what it was all for and why they were helping the people in Kyrgyzstan.

I noticed that during the book Sam gets to travel the world trying to solve what happened.  He goes to San Francso, North Korea, South Africa, Kyrgyzstan, Canada, and a town called Little Bicsek.  When he goes to all these places they are for different reasons.  In San Francso for training.  To Canada to find his brother's work place and to talk to a very powerful man.  In Litte Bicsek to see a friend is there and find so information about a connection.  To North Korea to talk to a spy that is working for the wrong side.  In South Africa to find so coorinadates that his brother left.  In Kyrgyzstan to stop what his brother found could destroy the oil supply in the Earth.

I wonder what would have happened if Sam had not been able to stop it.  I think the world wouldn't be able to survive without oil because it powers most of the thinks that we are using today.  The world would end up paying the North Koreans money to get to the oil supply that had found.  The entire world would go broke paying money to the North Koreans and would not survive when that oil supply was gone.

I realized that without oil the world would have been chaos.  They would all be paying for oil or they would have to find another way to keep the world power supply going.  They would run out of money first and then they would have to find a new way to power all the modern things that we use today.  It would be very hard on everyone.  The world would be mad and we would not be able to survive without a type of power source.  So I am glad that Sam was able to stop this from happening.

riddle poem

It roars like a lion,
 purs like a cat.
It is strong a little thing
 can hall about anything.

It has a metallic skin,
 that can be any color.
It's fast and it's slow.

It likes to travel,
 all over the world.
It likes to be,
 fueled with gas.

It has a V6 engine,
that makes it look like it's blazin.
With its speed it runs very
fast just like a horse.

It is awesome,
all the time.
It's a great thing
to have anytime.

Dear Mom and Dad,
           
I have a big question for you guys; can I get a TV in my room?  There can be a big benefit from doing this for me.  I know I am getting a new bed but this could help me at a later time.  If you get me a TV for my room there are many things that can happen because of this.  We could have the Xbox out of the sunroom and move it to my room.  Then, we would be able to make the sunroom nicer and lay it out the way that you want it to be.  You guys will not let me get a TV but I really want to have one in my room.  Having a TV in my room would help us when I have friends over the house. 
There are a couple of bad things that can happen if I was able to get a TV in my room.  One bad thing is that I might stay up late watching TV or playing the Xbox.  Another bad thing that could happen is that having a TV in my room would cost a lot of money to have cable run to it so I could watch TV.  
If I got the TV in my room some big things could happen for us.  We could take the Xbox out of the sunroom and put it my room.  Then, we would be able to create the sunroom the way that you want to be laid out.  This idea has been in my head since we got here and this can help both of us in a big way.
The biggest thing you guys would say is that it costs money to have a TV in my room.  I could take care of the cable service payments once I get a job.  When, this happens you guys will be happy that I am paying for something that I really want to have.  Since you guys always pay for all the things that I need I think that this would be a good thing that I am paying for it.  I think that there can be many things that happen if this could happen in my room.
            I think that it would be a really good thing if I could have a TV in my room.  There are many positives to having a TV in my room.  It will help when we want to fix the sunroom that we have.  Hopefully, you will agree with me on the reason’s that I have for wanting to have a TV in my room.

Your Son,


Bryan Clark

Caesar's Speech

                                      Julius Caesar and Friendship

What friendship does mean to me?  To me friendship means being able to trust and respect your friends.  Also, it means that your friends trust you and respect enough not to backstab you.  That both Brutus and I have different thoughts about what friendship means to them.  I think that my meaning of friendship is correct and that Brutus’s is wrong. 
            Brutus and I both have different views about friendship.  I think that friendship is being trustworthy, honest, and respectable to both your friends and yourself.  To Brutus friendship is taking power, control, and fixing things for people without them knowing about it.  Even though we have different opinions to the word friendship does not mean that either of us right about what it actual means we just said what means to us.   
In my eyes friendship means being able to trust someone.  Be trustworthy to your friends.  Helping your friends with all the problems that they have trouble with.  Also, respect your friends and they all will respect you.  To be honest with your friends if you did something wrong.  What friendship isn’t to Caesar is backstabbing someone and saying that it was for a different reason.  Physically, wronging or hurting your friend in more ways than one.  Doing something with your friend that will hurt them but will help you is some way.  That I have the way that a friend should be treated not the way that I was treated before my death.   
In Brutus’s eyes friendship is fixing your friends flaws for them without knowing.  Wanting them to act a certain way to help you look better to other people.  Taking advantage of your friends and using them to get what you want.  What friendship isn’t to Brutus is having too much power.  Having control over the people of Rome.  Doing things for your friends that should be left alone.  To Brutus friendship is different in his eyes than in mine.
My definition of friendship is correct and Brutus’s is wrong.  His is about taking power, control, and fixing things for your friends.  Mine is about being respectful, honest, and trustworthy.  I think that people would rather have my definition of friendship more than Brutus’s definition.
