Who remembers ......
One early morning I was channel surfing, and I found an old rerun of an old television show I used to watch before going to elementary school. This show always had many lessons to learn as well as just enjoying watching many stories of a boy and his dog. Even watching this show now as a grown person I can still hear my mom saying breakfast is ready, then it was off down the road to catch the school bus for I watched these episodes right before leaving for school. Who remembers the great show known as Timmy and Lassie?

History, Identity, and Power: Who Gets to Write the Truth?
History is not merely a record of what happened. It is a powerful tool, shaped by those who write it, often reflecting the agendas, traumas, and aspirations of nations. In our post-colonial world, history is contested terrain. Nowhere is this more evident than in the ongoing debate over the origins of the Jewish people, the identity of modern Israelis, and the broader question of who has the right to claim historical legitimacy.

How CW failed Wally West
The introduction of Wally West to The Flash Season 2 brought excitement to fans because they finally got to see the beloved Kid Flash join the Arrowverse. His story began with potential as he fought against his sister Iris' excessive protection while learning about his speed abilities before becoming a hero. The show began with a promising narrative for Wally but it evolved into a story that failed to deliver on its potential. The show eliminated Wally's development into the confident speedster from the comics by minimizing his screen time and then removed him from the show without providing any conclusion. The Flash series failed to deliver on its potential for one of DC's most significant speedsters.

On February 4 the question is 'You got trapped in the mall overnight with your BFF's. Make a list of things you would do? If I got stuck in the mall alone or with friends, I would probably find a bookstore with some cozy chairs and find a book to read or a few of them and relax, but in reality, now-a-days that could not happen for when 'last call is heard and the mall closes all the stores bring down the gates and lockdown, and the security guards walk around making sure no one remained flashing their flashlights everywhere.

On February 3 the question is 'If you were principal of your school for a day what would you do to make it more fun and exciting? If I were principal for a day at my old school, I would plan a scavenger hunt for the Freshman students they would need to find various tips about surviving high school. Sophomores/Juniors could search for various scores of sports and other activities and the Seniors could look for various college items. All will be posted somewhere or somehow throughout the school-10 points each. That is what I would do to make fun.

On February 2 the question is 'In gym class are you a scared of balls person, average, or a star-athlete? Why do you think so? In my gym classes I was totally average, but kind of excelled in track and field, swimming, and gymnastics, but average in football, basketball, and baseball. I remember a few years we had sections for physical fitness when we had to run an obstacle course and being timed as well, which was kind of fun even in a high school PE class for I remember I almost slipped during the Harvard Step Test. Please comment.

On January 30 the question is 'If you could hang out with a cartoon character in real life who would it be and why?' There are a few of these characters that I would like to hang out with me and they are Scooby-Doo for the mysteries and the food. The others range from Winnie-the-Pooh to Yogi Bear and Boo-Boo and their various friends. Even once in a while Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids where one could learn many diverse ideas on friendship, food and what makes each of us special in many ways and making proper choices too.
