In this week’s column, I had been planning to discuss my sure-fire plan to get the U.S. troops out of Iraq quickly. Then I realized I can barely get myself to school on time, so I decided against that.
Instead, I am going to talk about my missing spider.
I hope I’m not stealing publisher Joel Klaassen’s thunder by saying this, but I am very happy to introduce to you the Oracle!
The Oracle is a revamped newspaper produced by the new journalism class at Hillsboro High School, and we will be publishing an eight-page spread through the Free Press every month this school year.
Announcer: Good evening. I’m your host, Frank Shoein, and you’re watching the 6 o’clock edition of the Daily First Alert Eye Witness Overly Dramatic News, the No. 1 ranked news program of both the National News Broadcasting Association and my mother.
Now that school is back in session, I’m becoming nostalgic for the freedom of summer again. This is a bad thing to have, especially this early into the school year. Being ready for another summer vacation is not a good mood to be in when there are still nine months left.
So in resistance, I have been reminding myself of various summer nightmares. Tourist traps, to be exact.
