G is for Pants On The Ground

"Pants on the ground, Pants on the ground, Lookin’ like a foo with your pants on the ground.
With the gold in your mouth, Hat turned sideways. Pants hit the ground, Call yourself a cool cat .Lookin’ like a foo Walkin’ downtown with your pants on the ground." Those are the lyrics of a very awesome song called pants on the ground, obviously. This song was composed my a man with the name Larry Platt one night on American idol. As he sang and danced on stage he did not consider the fact that he might make it to Hollywood. Shortly after his song premiered live on American Idol it went straight to itunes hitting the top ten list.

Though Larry Platt cannot move on to Hollywood for much longer his 10-m inutes of fame was worth the risk. The song may be included someday in the American Idol album. One of the reasons why he could not continue on with the rest of the people that made it past the auditions was because he went a little over the age limit. The age limit for the aditions was 28. Larry Platt was 62 years old. I think we went a little over the limit.

As random and silly as this song really is, for some weird reason i really like it. For a 62 year old man that sings about a song with no meaning I think he put a lot of effort and heart into it, and he has made a lasting impression on America FOREVER!

Larry Platt was not an army general, he was a civil rights activist in Atlanta. The nickname "General" was given to him by Hosea Williams because of his amazing efforts on behalf of the civil rights movement. Pants on the Ground was played on WWE's Royal Rumble in a backstage segment between Teddy Long, Ranjin Singh, and the Great Khali.Also pants on the ground was sung by David Letterman on the Late Night Show. Pants On The Ground will soon be a greatest hit and I hope when I'm 62 I will have as much swagga as Larry Platt.

Life lesson: Keep your pants pulled up, and dont be a foo!!!!!!

F is for Facebook

In my mind the definition of facebook should be time sucker. Every day when I come home from school I usually grab a bite to eat and then sit down and do some homework. As I sit down at my desk I can hear my computer calling me. '' AAAAAlex goooo ooon Faaaacebook" I can not control my self; I need Facebook. Facebook is a social networking site that allows you to have contacts and exchange pictures with one another. First, you make a profile - you know put some info of your self and pictures of you doing stupid things. I just hate when people (not to mention any names.. Andy) hahah joking, have 350 pictures of them just doing nothing - its annoying. I have a facebook profile obviously, and so do other people in our grade but the worst thing is random people from like from grade 2 add me as a friend. Like the next day they try to talk to me and there all like hhhhey Alex Craig hows it goin buddy. I respond, not to be mean or anything but dude I don't know you!!!!

In my opinion Facebook is going to take over the world! The website currently has more than 350 million active users worldwide and in 10 years it is estimated that facebook will have 500 million users. Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook with his college roommates and fellow computer science students and at that time he was attending Harvard University. It later expanded further to include any university students, then high school students, and finally, to anyone aged 13 and over. He was the one that started it all. As great and amazing as you might think it is, Facebook has met with some controversy. It has been blocked in several countries including Syria, China, Viatnam, and Iran. I don't really know why it was blocked but our school sure got some ideas from them, and now they blocked facebook too.

There isn't a lot to talk about with facebook so I thought I might just say random things for this last paragraph. Random thing#1= More than 35 million users update there status every day. That basically means if some one wants to write on there wall they might say OmG I am soooo board right now, OmG sooo much home work OmG hah funnn times today haha love ya sandy!!! hah ttyl. well ya thats pretty much what it is. Facebook is very fun for the first week or so and then it gets really boring, at least that's what a normal person might think. Me on the other hand I am addicted. Its like a drug. Well this has been a very random blog post but i hope you liked it.

Life lesson: Use Facebook wisely and don't do drugs.
