The Internet Age of Misleading Information

Though the Internet has its many accurate sources it has many more inaccurate sources. Libraries are much better for finding information that is considered relevant because that is apart of the publishing process. You will not find a non-fiction book on why the grass is blue and the sky is green because it just wouldnt make any sense, but through the power of the Internet im sure somewhere within the billions of web pages you will find someone somewhere that has written about the sky being green and the grass being blue. But when information is not plainly evident many things on the internet are not accurate to any degree. Consider this... you are writting a paper on some person you do not know about we will call him BoB. On one internet page it says BoB has 5 children, on another it says he has 3. Which one would you believe? When using the internet to find information it is better to look at more than 5 resources on the topic on which you are searching to insure yourself that what you see on the computer screen is correct. The internet is very miss leading because anyone can write anything, it doesnt matter if it is correct or accurate.

All Poets Are Hippies?

Although many potray poets as being tree hugging, lit up, dirty people; they're many different kind of poets and many different genre of poetry. The stereotype that "All poets are hipies" comes from the year of woodstock so i believe, when they saying was "Make love not war", like that ever got anything finished. I think many poets are lazy yes indeed. They might work on a piece for hours on end without leaving their house or doing anything besides focusing on their writing. I guess everyone has their own definition of "FUN". Any way, cant say all poets are hippies though b/c i can think of two off the top of my head that were deffinatly not tree huggers; Edgar Alan Poe and Emily Dickenson. One was just a crazy old man that didnt know what to do with himself after he lost his wife and the other was a loon that never left her house EVER! Therefore i conclude that all poets are downright crazy. ....hope i dont turn into a poet for no reason at all. lol

My Own Obituary

An American hero some had to say. Patrick Kaiser was one of the most generous, kind, and heartwarming people you would ever have the privilege of meeting. Not only did Mr. Kaiser make his fans laugh through his many comedy shows and sitcoms but he also gave a lot back to his fellow community and many regions of the world. He stayed many years in Africa aiding many small communities which needed food, water, and medical aid. The world has felt the impact this man's death has had.

Mr. Kaiser survived both his daughter and wife at the age of 51.
Cause of death is currently unknown. It was known that he had many heart conditions.
