Random title...haha I couldn't think of a song to fit this situation. ANYWAYS, yes, you are getting 2 posts in one day. I just forgot to post something in my previous post. So, for extemp, I'm in charge of printing out articles for the tubs from the Houston Chronicle. It is an absolutely ridiculous newspaper and I'll illustrate this point.
So I'm supposed to print newsworthy articles. I click on the national news button and here's what I see:
TOP STORY: Stamp prices going up 2 cents to 44 cents in May
...
...
...
O: <---That was my face after reading this "top" story. Haha, I can't believe they have an article about stamps when the stimulus was just passed today and it's a more newsworthy story... Anyways...I proceeded to scan the remainder of the page and here are some stories I see: "Bourbon spills to protest Ky. tax hike on booze"
"Lesser charge over Texas toddler burned in dryer"
"Midwife births raise questions about citizenship"
"Pot activists rip Kellogg Co. for dropping Phelps"
"No sign of dolphins in NJ rivers, scientists say"
And then there was my favorite of all times..."Colonel's secret recipe in new, safer vault at KFC" Haha, apparently they had to hide the recipe while KFC upgraded security...insane. Anyways, this goes to show the importance of Houston Chronicle in extemp speeches (: just incase you get a topic on Colonel Sanders
