Recycling/How bad the roads are they need to be repaired.

Okay I am going to find a picture about how the side walks are not in very great condition and they need repair. In some neighbor hoods there aren't even side walks; they're very bad bumpy, rocky roads. I can't tell the construction workers to repair this road on this street. I think the city of Salem has to notice for itself.

So have you ever walked downtown or close to the skate park and just around downtown? Well there is a lot of garbage laying around the streets and it makes our community look bad and trashy. All people ask is to recycle, pick up your trash, and throw it in the garbage. I am always around my friends. Sometimes they're eating food and it has a wrapper. Obviously they're going to throw it on the ground and I always always tell my friends, "Turn around and go pick the garbage that you threw on the ground." I think it shows disrespect when you throw a piece of trash on the ground and then you pass by a garbage can.

I do care about what is going on in our community. I'm the type of person who cares about the appearance of my town, and all i ask is just "Please pick up your garbage." Hey if you see a piece of trash or garbage on the ground, be nice and pick it up. (=

Dream vehichle's













Alright.. I have some vehichles i love and want to have when i get my permit or license.Range rover Toyata Persus, Audi, the new eclipse that just came out i have seen them in my neighborhood, WRX subaru with turbo in the engine (my cusin has one that has turbo i road in it it is SWEEEEEEEET.) My Father told me if i graduate somehow and i have my permit or license i could get my dream car and he has it all set up to surprise me. I really can't wait because when I turn seventeen I'm getting my permit but I really dont want to because i cant drive anywhere without my parents but i'll make my parents come in the car with me so i can go places where i need to go. Ahh i know this might be bad to say but i can't wait till i get older because i get to do alot MORE things then younger kids. Me and my parents got into a little argument about how i'm doing things older than my age and i paused them for a second and said "isn't that being matuer for my age" "yes but i see that you are growing up to fast for your age" "that's how i want it to be."

Gas prices

So... Gas prices are going down today because of stock markets they are going out of business gas prices are low why? Because no one is driving now that people see that gas prices are going down they are driving more. They used to be 353 somewhere around that price and it was going to still go up. But i just heard from my father last night that the gas prices are going to go up AGAIN.... Okay so Obama is wanting to stop racism, stock markets, gas prices, taxes (number one). McCain i really think he is STUPID because i have seen the debate on both of them and McCain just picks on Obama and laughs but McCain doesn't know what he is doing If i was old enough to vote i would vote for Obama, Obama is a really great guy and knows what he is doing with our community he has it all planned out.. I have walked downtown and seen elderly people holding signs saying "Vote for McCain he can change the world" man i looked at those posters and laughed with my friends me and my friends sometime talk about this and if you think about it. It would be hard to run for president in a country that's really a lot of responsibility.
