The Ring of Fire

I think the big relation with fire and love, is that fire is wild and hard to control. It's very unpredictable, water flows down but fire can grow upward or down.

love is a burning thing
and it makes a firey ring
bound by wild desire
i fell into a ring of fire

basically love is something the consumes and surrounds you. And although you may be aware of the dangers, you with out haste jump in to this firey ring.

the taste of love is sweet
when hearts like ours meet
i fell for you like a child
oh but the fire went wild

basicall, going on the growing speratically out of control like i talked about earlier.

on the other hand, it's so easy to relate love to anything though.

House Bill 525

House bill 525 is an expansion on the bill of rights act, which basically was set to protect minds from teachers who want to influence teachers. I agree with the original intent, but what this bill eventually does is stop all politicol disussion with in the class room.

They use the term "immature minds" with in the bill. And there was a proponent of the bill, an MSU professor in fact, that claimed freshman minds as immature as well easily impressionable, and well for a lesser word, gullable. I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I am quite insulted by that. We're in college now, we go shopping on our own, cook our food, do our own laundry, i think we can select our political candidate.

This bill had alot of influence from actual testimony of kids reporting that teachers, mostly liberal extremists, who would lower grades of students who had conserative views, and in montana non the less. But i think students will notice the fact that views are being forced upon them, and that they do not really buy in to them.

Never the less, discussion in classrooms of politics and current events is important to develop interest and appreation of that world. They claim this bill for "Higher education," but this kind of discussion is important to learning, and sans-discussion would not higher our education. And if there are those who wish to use the power of the grade to make students eyes open to their liberal rediculous hippie non-sense, well all it takes is for a student to report that teacher to the administration.

Metaphor

A metaphor nearly the same as a simily. As said in "Renaissance Man," starring Danny DeVito, "simily, men are like dogs. Metaphor; you just are dogs." I think metaphors tend have a more meaningful meaning. Saying that "Sexy Back is the best song!" has a lot more inpact than saying, "Sexy Back is like the best song."

Spoof Definition

spoof Pronunciation (spf)
n.
1. Nonsense; tomfoolery.
2. A hoax.
3. A gentle satirical imitation; a light parody.
tr.v. spoofed, spoof·ing, spoofs
1. To deceive.
2. To do a spoof of; satirize gently.

[After Spoof, name of a game invented by Arthur Roberts (1852-1933), British comedian.]
Word History: We are indebted to a British comedian for the word spoof. Sometime in the 19th century Arthur Roberts (1852-1933) invented a game called Spoof, which involved trickery and nonsense. The first recorded reference to the game in 1884 refers to its revival. It was not long before the word spoof took on the general sense "nonsense, trickery," first recorded in 1889. The verb spoof is first recorded in 1889 as well, in the sense "to deceive." These senses are now less widely used than the noun sense "a light parody or satirical imitation," first recorded in 1958, and the verb sense "to satirize gently," first recorded in 1927.

Spoof has also been used as a less obscene word for fart.

Mostly spoof is used to take something already made, and scarcastically remake it using cosistant humor making fun of the original.
