Jack "The Kung Fu Guy" vs. Zane "The "Mystery Guy" by Ibrahima

Jack "The Kung Fu Guy" vs. Zane "The "Mystery Guy"

by Ibrahima

Jack "The Kung Fu Guy" knew kung fu better than everybody. He was so good he could break a stick with his hand and he could break a stick with his feet.  Jack was a teacher at a kung fu class. Jack defeated bad guys.  Jack could do kung fu very fast.

Zane the "Mystery Guy" was a villain.  Jack "The Kung Fu Guy" was Zane's enemy. Jack wanted to defeat Zane because Zane had killed Jack's mom and dad.

Zane the "Mystery Guy" kicked Jack "The Kung Fu Guy" but Jack fought back. Zane knocked out Jack with a super kung fu punch. Zane was winning now so he built a super arm that could destroy the city. So Jack went to the city to defeat Zane. They fought and Jack "The Kung Fu Guy" won.

Then Zane the "Mystery Guy" got an evil plan. It was to build a machine that could do super fast punches and would give him super speed. Jack ran to the city to find him.  Zane was in the streets destroying cars and buildings.  Jack snuck up and took Zane's machine in a sneak attack. Suddenly Zane couldn't see Jack running. Jack punched Zane with his own new super machine. Zane the "Mystery Guy" was humiliated. He started to cry and then he ran away. Jack fought for good and he had won!

I thought today was gonna be a good day

but the dead started rising today. 

So I grab my gun

gunshots hit the floor

when I run.

Boom! Boom! Boom! But now I'm tight

I'm really really really

having a fight.

Hey finally I found my friend Lue

we got all mixed up in this goo.

Fight zombies all day with Lue.

I found a map on a trap

and it really was flat

and when I took the map off it went SNAP!

Zombies were coming.

We had to go

with the flow

I found my sister's bow.

We went inside and outside

looking for that plane.

We couldn't even find one clue.

What a shame, (beatbox in background)

what a shame,

what a shame.

These zombies, this map, this plane, a frame?

Finally we went out to sea.

These fleas are stinging us like bees.

(Voices speaking in background)

Spoken:

Hey look is that a plane?

Yes it's a plane.

Now we are in the plane.

Let's go home, bro.

"The Funny History of Slinkys" by Brandon

The Funny History of Slinkys

by Brandon

The Slinky was invented by a U.S. Navy engineer Richard James in 1943. He was working on a chemical but it was too hot. He tried to get his spring, but it fell off the desk. Then it went down shelf to shelf and when it stopped moving he put one spring on the edge. He turned it into the Slinky.

The Slinky helped the U.S. in war when the government used them as communication soldiers. Closing the Slinky meant the army should charge and pulling it out meant to spread out and the other army did not know about this.  The Slinky also helped people do magic tricks, keep kids occupied, and have fun.

Back when Richard James created it and it was in the store, it cost $1.00 for each Slinky.  Now you can go to Toys R Us and buy it for $5.00.  The company that makes Slinkys is "Alex Brands" (http://www.alexbrands.com). Now, Slinkys have colors and they come in star shapes, squares, and hearts. There is even Slinky-style clothing and a building, paper Slinkys and plastic.

Richard James died in 1998 but his family and kids are still here. The Slinky shows how even a toy can help people--in wars, magic tricks and all types of stuff.
