Testing your creativity prowess : can you write a 2-3 line paragraph that includes the following...
ten words and terms? They don't have to follow any particular order, but must be included somewhere in your paragraph: 1 ocean 2. lollipop 3. takes my breath away 4. florescent 5. abrasive 6. Obama 7. Scotch tape 8. cheesy 9. whiskey 10. like a bat out of hell.
Barack Obama reminds me of one of those cheesy new compact florescent bulbs that do not live up to their lollipop claims. Like a drunken bat out of hell recovering from a late night ocean of whiskey, it takes my breath away when they try to Scotch tape together all the false promises made by this always abrasive president.
I threw a lollipop in the ocean, preferring whiskey instead. Abrasive Obama police takes my breath away were when they came like a bat out of hell to make me scotch tape all the fluorescent bulbs.
From what I have heard, Obama is always, or mostly, making false promises. Watching the ocean when it has strong, abrasive, waves takes my breath away. When someone in a bar drinks cheesy whiskey they run like a bat out of hell and leave their wet lollipop stuck to the barstool like Scotch tape.
The scotch tape took my breath away, its removal adding to the ocean of my pain. Whiskey masked the fetid cheesy odour of Obama, his lollipop head haloed by the florescent behind. I managed to smile as, like a bat out of hell, his abrasive hand struck.
I arrive in heaven like a bat out of hell, yet the strangest things await me: in an abrasive ocean of whiskey, I see lollipops and fluorescent scotch tape, and this may be cheesy, but this takes my breath away. I see Obama.

Do standardized tests determine who will be successful?As a former music teacher I noticed that a week or two before standardized tests all classes/recess were cancelled to cram test ?'s and answers to the test. Does this really prove what kids have learned or how successful they will be in life?
