For today’s daily create we had to make some magnetic poetry. I’m sure doing this brought everybody back to a time where they used to do this on their own fridge. Enjoy my creation!

  I absolutely hate it when works of art are censored for “our own good”. But I felt this assignment would be relatively easy to complete especially since it is worth 5 stars. I chose to work with a scene in the Martin Scorcese classic “Goodfellas”. In this memorable scene, Joe Pesci has the table’s […]

I thought they did a really good job with their radio program! I listened in to Hampton’s Handyman, a radio broadcast about the rich hiring others to do their work around the house and recording the hijinks that ensue. I thought the sound quality was really well done. It was …

Listening to others radio show:  The radio show that I listened to was “United Tales.” The group set up interviews with questions based on spring. It also dove into why people chose Mary Washington.
