Teen Talk: On the Go: Memories of Easter give warm feelings
"If joy were a color, it would be purple pastel pretty, like old women and young children both wear on Easter, smiling while having deviled eggs and drinking Kool-Aid. Chasing blown bubbles in the backyard, the young ones' distracting hats fly off."

I am constantly fighting with my parents; I like this guy and they don't approve of him. They don't like him because he is not planning on going to a college after he gets out of high school.
Hello, dear readers. I would like to say to you all Happy New Year, and a Merry Wintereenmas season to all (those curious about the holiday should research a Web comic called Ctrl Alt Del, to be reviewed in next month's article).
There are many things in this world that possess little to no rationality for existing. In an atheist's view, they would be accidents of evolution; in a Christian's view, they would be the spoils of a hobo digging through God's waste bin.
