The Year 3000


My post card for the year 3000 would be covered in many new and revolitionary ideas. That would utterly blow the mind of anyone of the 21st century. The basis of my post card will be four main subjects colonies, space fleets, space stations, and the current Earth. Now th colonie section would have three main pictures and those pictures would be images of the Earths colonies of Mars, Venus, and The Moon. The second set of pictures would be of the Earths massive and devastating intergalactic fleet it would also show all the capital ships of each fleet. Now the third set of pictures would be of the the Eaths man intergalactic space stations which would be spread over many galaxies.  Now the fourth and final set of pictures will be of the Earth in its current and true state at the time of the printing of the postcard.

It was the best of times It was the worst of times

The reasons why the quote It was the best of times It was the worst of times is an appropriate quote for high school is that it describes most students entire experience in high school. High school can be the best of times when you get A's on assignments, or when you perform in band, also it could be when you're recognized for a good deed that you did. But it can also be the worst of times say when you fail a test, get caught committing a bad deed, or it could be you getting into a physical altercation and getting suspended for the fight. Hopefully and luckily the good will outweigh the bad. But that is not always the case for some high school may just be one big mess, but foe others it can be a giant success depending how you act and perform. That is why the quote It was the best of times It was the worst of times is the perfect quote for high school.

If I had a Servant for a Week


If I had a servant for a week I would choose Leonardo Da Vinchi. Now there are many reasons why one may choose Mr.Da Vinchi but my reasons are completely unique to me. The reasons I would choose Mr.Da Vinchi are he is Italian and I love Italian food so he would be a great cook. Also i could have him make me some gelato. So i could have him make me all the lasagna, spaghetti, and ravioli I could posibly want. But thats only the least I would have him do as my servent for a week trust me when I say he would do alot more than that.But his biggest contribution would be making new and inventive designs for me so I could sell them for a profit, but for me only. But his main duty will still be makeing all the pizza and gelato I want and anytime I had a craving for it he would make me whatever i desired fresh and delicous.

If sharks roamed the forest

As I am walking in the forest all seems well or at least I thought it did. Then this really odd smell began to encompass the entire forest. But I can't tell what type of smell it is. Then I realize it smells like fish. Why in the Sam Hill does it smell like fish in the woods there is no river,creek,lake, or stream in the woods so were in the heck is it coming from. Then I see something in the corner of my eye but it vanishes. I think to myself what was that? Then I get a good look omg there are sharks everywhere in this forest. How is this possible? There is no water anywhere in this forest let alone salt water. Now I know what I must do a fight to the death. So I gather my weapons an m60, a mini gun, and some claymores, and last but not least some c4. Now I am ready. So I begin the battle is very long and fierce but I come out victorious with just some minor scratches. Now I get to enjoy the spoils of battle fresh sushi. Now I carve up the rest of my foes for food for my family. Now I got enough food for at least a year. As I leave the forest I think back on my battle and I think dang that was really weird but it was pretty fun.

If I had an unlimited plane ticket for a month

Now if I had an unlimited plane ticket for a month I know exactly what I would do.  I would take a complete tour of Europe.  I would choose to exploit my ticket by doing this because I always love to learn and Europe's history is amazing. I could learn whatever I want by just looking at random buildings. The history in Europe can be seen everywhere especially in its infastructure. Plus I can look and analyze the lands that my ancestors came from and maybe even find family I did not know about. Also I just plain like Europe and its countries better than the U.S. and the rules in Europe are more lenient than in the U.S . And furthermore I could be exposed to all the different languages in Europe and I love to learn new languages so that would also be quite fun.

My name

My name is Joshua Michael Minick.  My names is quite interesting especially when you look up its meaning.  When I discovered my names meaning it was like bam my name is awesome. Joshua means "yahweh is salvation" which is pretty interesting. Joshua is derived from ancient Hebrew it is most notably found in the bible. Also Joshua's correct spelling is Yehoshua. Joshua is usually associated with religion. Joshua is most popular in Australia. Now on to my middle name Michael which is like the perfect middle name because it coencides with Joshua. Michaels meaning is "who is like god? Or of god". Michael originated in Hebrew,  also it is found in the bible. Michael is a very popular name in a number of countries. Now for the grand finale my last name Minick which is quite interesting,  but at the same time boring. Minick is an old German suraname.  Minick means carpenter,  which means whoever came up with the name was likely a carpenter.  So you can picture some guy shaping and crafting wood into different objects thinking hum Minick sounds like a good last name since I am a carpenter. Now that is why Joshua Michael Minick is like the best name ever.

A horse, a cow, or a dozen chickens

If I had lived 2,000 years ago I would choose to have the dozen chickens.  The reason for me choosing the dozen chickens is  one they reproduce at a fairly good rate. Also once the new chickens have come of age you can slaughter the older chickens for food,  and you can still eat the eggs from the chickens. And when you get a big enough stock pile of eggs you can go to town and sell them for a profit,  and then buy other goods you need. Plus nothing tastes as good as a fresh egg in the morning. Also they don't need much space so there a space saver. And there wastes or composted bodies can be used as fertilizer for crops that can be planted on the rest of your land. Then you can use the crops to get even more money.

Nasty food

If you have not tasted the mystery sandwhich Lccc Early College High School you should be extremely happy. But if you would like an example of how it tastes I will give you one. Imagine that you have gathered all the left over food you regard with abhor. Then imagine after that you found this mystery meat which tastes like your eating cat or dog, or just some random meat paste. Then after that bear with me now imagine that you mixed it all together so now it is just a thick paste of mystery meat,corn,black beans,peas,carrots,and some random bits of a rotted pepper, and after that imagine you put it into some type of patty form then cooked it on some old nasty grill until it was chared. Now here is the real nasty part imagine you put it on this old crusty rock hard bun that you swear is moldy, then think of the sensation it would cause from eating it. Now that is an example of how this experience would likely occur.

What warrior

If I could choose to be one of the warriors given I would choose to be a spartan. The reason I would choose to be a spartan is that they were the most brutal, and daring warriors of their time. Also know one could match the precise killing ability of a spartan. I think the life of a spartan would be filled with battle, gore, glory, and many celebrations. I think the daily life of a spartan would be filled with a lot of elite training,  and also many instances of deboutary. I think if I was a part of that life I would have no problem nor complaints with my actions threw out that life.

Journal 3 people

If I had the chance to invite three people for a beverage I would invite George S. Patton,  F.D.R., and Douglas McArthur.  Also the beverage we would consume is tea. I would invite these three men to this meeting because they're the most interesting people in history to me, also they were some of the best battle tactician 's of there era. The topic we would discuss during the meeting is what was the U.S.A's preperations for WW2, also we would discuss what was the U.S.A's plan of action threw out WW2. And we would have side topics on each others opinion of one another, also we discuss if plans during the WW2 could have been planned with better accuracy. The mugs they would drink their beverages out of would say I hate McArthur for Patton,  I hate Patton for McArthur,  and I hate both of you for F.D.R.

Journal 7

If I started my own business I would start an American based super-car brand. I would start this company because the U.S. is in need of its own super car brand. So the U.S. won't be so dependent on foreign super car brands. The U.S. needs to ween its self off of foreign super car dependency.
