Tuesday, Nov. 2nd.

Today in the beginning of class Mr. Bruns told us a story about the actor from the "Hangover" who pulled out a joint and smoked it on a tv show. Mr. Bruns changed it on Wikipedia and the story wasn't true. He also talked to us about 3 Americans being shot to death near the Mexico-U.S. border. We also discussed about the "don't ask, don't tell" theory in the military. It's going to stay the official policy. Our assigned blog of the week is two read these two articles about Somalia and write about what we read.
