Causes

There is a need for an alternative fuel source in the automotive industry because:
The oil supply on the earth as we know it is diminishing,
Cars today are contributing a lot to pollution.
This pollution is causing global warming.
Gasoline is very expensive.
Gasoline isn't efficient.

The major reason I think that we should develop an alternative fuel source is that we are polluting our earth at an alarming rate. We don't know for sure exactly what is happening to the earth but if you just think about how much CO2comes our of one tail pipe in a year or what ever and then just imagine how many million cars and trucks are on the road everyday pumping out millions and millions of tons of pollution into the air. It has to go some where. I don't think it would be just floating out to space. There is evidence that shows the pollution being trapped in by the O-Zone layer or what ever. This is causing the earths climate to shift. Because of the earth not being able to cool down and the heat being trapped in the effects could be disastrous.
It may not happen in our lifetime but it will happen if we do nothing about it.

IS IT TIME TO DITCH SENIOR YEAR?

My senior year was pretty much a joke. I had mostly everything done besides like 2 classes and they were so easy that I put little to no effort into them at all. I had a vocational auto class in the morning (which was not required) that I always came late to and did not do a whole lot. Although I put in little effort to my senior year I still managed to get pretty good grades. All I can remember is waking up and driving to class extremely tired. Rushing to school knowing that my teacher was going to freak out on me. It wasn't really that bad getting yelled at because there were always kids that would come in later than me, which is usually pretty funny to the class. We had silent reading at the beginning of everyday and that was a good time to catch up on some sleep. Either we could do homework, read, or sleep(which you weren't really suppose to do). Then, twenty minutes later, we got to work on our project (a old or new car you would fix up or maybe just wash and vacuum your car). It was a pretty fun class but that's not what was fun about senior year it was the PARTYING.

Inquiring into "Stand and Deliver"

The seventy percent of college students that procrastinate is a completely reasonable number. I procrastinated doing this reading and homework. This is not a complete procrastination of doing home work but I have had my share of full blown procrastination. Although I have gotten much better at not procrastinating, in high school I was very lazy and never did homework. The reason I think I waited until the last minute to do a project or paper is because I was really lazy and I knew the grades I was pulling were good enough without 100 percent effort. Overall I feel I still procrastinate but I have have come a long way from high school.

My problem is that my good friend mike wants me to go with him on this "spring break trip of a lifetime." He thinks that since we never went on a senior trip that this is our opportunity. He has this old Nissan car that he wants to take down to Arizona where we have a few friends that are living there. He thinks we should chop the top off and drive down there where it is warm. I never said my friend mike was very smart. And there are some obvious problems that may arise that I think through but he obviously doesn't. First of all I don't think the car can make it 1200 or what ever miles it takes to get there. Second, what if it rains??? I mean come on, you can't expect to drive two maybe three days and not run into some sort of precipitation. Lastly I think that far of a drive would just plain suck in a little car.
This situation doesn't really have any life or death consequences at the moment so it isn't a very serious problem but it is coming up soon so i have to think about it and make a decision soon.
Now, what I should do about this situation is either just go with him and wing it or get a couple plan tickets instead.
Either way if I go I should have fun but it's the means of transportation and what mike wants to do is the problem.

Summary of Happy Gilmore

1.) The movie "Happy Gilmore" is one of the most hilarious films ever maid. It is also in my opinion Adam Sandler's best performance. This movie is a comedy about a wannabe pro hockey player turned golfer. He faces many challenges when trying to raise money to keep his grandmothers house.

Happy tried out for his home town professional hockey team every year. And every year he fails hilariously. After his attempt this year he finds that his grandmothers house is getting repossessed and decides to do something about it. After he is surprised by finding an amazing running tee off shot, Happy decides to try it in the pro golf world to make some money.

Every spectator and player at the pro open is astonished to see Happy's amazing long drive. He even manages to get a hole in one on a par four which is almost impossible. After working his way up in pro golf and making some money happy is just short of making enough to save his grandmothers house.

During the tour Happy makes an enemy who is the best pro golfer at the time, Shooter Mcgavin. When Shooter ends up buying the house when it is auctioned off, Happy challenges him for the house. Happy ends up winning the house and there is a happy ending.

All during this film Happy has many obstacles to overcome to keep his grandmothers house. He prevails in the end while giving the audience a belly ache full of laughs. Over all I'll give Happy Gilmore five out of five stars.


2.)My biggest concern in approaching this summary assignment is just bringing all the ideas together, a good thesis, and having a good flow to my paper.
I think I will be able to pull good facts from the article and pick good supporting details. I think this will be the easiest part of writing the summary.
