The Holocaust was Caustly

The following paragraph is not for the light of heart, or the detailed. Please read with caution or tissues.

The Holocaust truly started in Germany January 30, 1933. The heart-shattering task of disposing of Germany's 525,000 Jews began almost immediately thereafter. The Nazi's were to play an important role in what is to come. At the head of this project, was Adolf Hitler.
In 1935, Hitler introduced the Nuremberg, which stripped German Jews of their citizenship and deprived them of all civil rights. On November 9, 1938, with the help of Nazi soldiers, on what is refered to as The Night of Broken Glass, approximately 100 Jewish people were killed and 30,000 were taken to concentration camps. 7,000 Jewish shops were vandalized also. Many other events like this took place until about 1942.

With the help of local authorities the Nazi's set up many concentration camps in the German boarders. In these camps, Jews would be treated poorly until the were killed. The earliest camp was Dachau. There they were tortured and held prisoner, but not killed. Later, most camps were used to exterminate Jews or use them as slaves. Many prisoners were worked to death or (death to the antagonists!) killed out of whim, meaning the soldiers felt that that particular prisoner had lived long enough, so the decided to kill he/she. Most Jews were disposed of by being led into gas chambers by the truck loads. They were robbed of their possessions and led into the gas chambers naked. Most of the time they were told that the large rooms were communal showers. Also stabbed, shot, brutally maimed, or gored in some way or another. (You get the picture) Hitler, had a thought that blond haired and blue eyed people were the best, an Arian Race. Not Arial, which is the font I am using.

A,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t,u,v,,w,x,y,z! Next time wont you sing with me?! (Sorry, it's too sad for me, so i song children's tunes.) Twinkle, twin- okay fine!

The Holocaust ended near 1945. Hitler died April 30, 1945. The sad era of mass killing is finally over, due to Hitler's death. Yippy!

Now a happy picture!






Just kidding!

The Kennedies' Children

I like indenting very far. Can't you tell? (sarcasm) So I'm now gunna inform yas about stuff. John F. Kennedy, our very own 33rd president, had 4 children. Arabella Kennedy was born first, Caroline Bouvier Kennedy was the second, John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. came third, Patrick Bouvier Kennedy was fourth which were all born from Jackie Kennedy, and last and least (just kidding) was Jack Rodney Worthington II, which J.F.K. had with Mary Worthington.


Arabella Kennedy was born in 1956. She came out stillborn, already dead upon birth. The tragedies this family!


Caroline Bouvier Kennedy was born November 27, 1957. She is the only surviving child from Prez. John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy. After her father was assassinated she moved to the Upper East Side of Manhattan where she lived with her brother and went to elementary school. Later she attended Radcliff College. Once finished with her studies, she started working at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. There she met her husband-to-be, Edmund Schlossberg, who was working as an exhibit designer at the time. Later she went to receive a law degree from Columbia Law School. Caroline then worked for many charities and acted as a politician for a while. She also co-authored two books about civil liberties with Ellen Allderman. In 2008 she supported Barrack Obama in his race for president, and was considered for the open Senate seat in New York, but she backed out for personal reasons. I'm glad she did so well!

John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. was born November 25, 1960 in the Georgetown Family Hospital, sixteen days after J.F.K. was elected. During his time in the white house as a child, John Jr. was nick-named------ (Try Henry's Hut, the latest blog here on blogger!) (Sorry, I got payed $20 for that A.D.D., I mean add.) (Also, A.D.H.D. is just high-definition A.D.D.) (And, for St. Jude's Children Hospital, A.D.D. is attention deficit disorder---look a butterfly!)----Sorry, my apologies. As I was saying, was nick-named "John John" when a fast talking reporter accidentally said his name twice. He grew up on the Upper East Side of Manhattan with his sister Caroline Kennedy, after his father's assassination. People Magazine named Kennedy its "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1988 at the age of 27 (the youngest "sexiest man" to date). He is the only person so named who was not a working actor and is the only one who is now deceased. J.F.K. Jr. graduated from Brown University in 1983. After some time in India after college he worked for the New York City Office of Business Development. After he acted a little, as it was a passion of his from acting in high school. Late into 1994 John Jr. met Carolyn Jeanne Bessette after his mother's death. After resisting marriage for a year, Carolyn Bessette married him on September 21, 1996, on Cucumber Island in Georgia. Sadly on July 16, 1999 John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. was killed in a plane crash at night along with his wife and mother-in-law, Lauren Bassette. (Excuse me, I need a tissue.)

Patrick Bouvier Kennedy was born August 7, 1963, five and a half weeks early, with a birth weight of four pounds. He was transported to Boston's Childrens' Hospitial immedeatly. Two days later, August 9, 1963, from Hyaline Membrane Disease. Gosh!

Jack Rodney Worthington II was born November 22, 1961, in Maverick Counrty, Texas. Well, apparently this guy isn't very well know for anything, but one major incident that wasn't his doing. Jack Rodney Worthington II (I'm saying that for dramatic affect) claims to be the illegitimate son of John F. Kennedy, our 33 President of the United States. (That was dramatic!)

Well'p! I'll see you next time on Dane's Disaterous Dis-adventure! (Welp means "well yep" not like the person/offensive comment, welp.)

25 Random Things About Me

1. I am very random!

2. I read the book The Sea of Monsters in which the characters refer to Pegasuses as "chicken ponies!!!" You should read it! Especially if you like sheep.

3. I love to play in little, plastic, animal shaped, sand boxes with toy Tonka dump trucks. Those things are just so cool and bring back fond memories!

4. Finding Nemo, The Simpson Movie, and Get Smart are my favorite movies of all time so far. I watched Finding Nemo 22 times, literally.

5. A year ago I made silly clay-mation shorts with Play-Doh. The first one was called Grimmy Goes to Work in which the Grim Reaper gets fired and applys for a job at HP.

6. My favorite fish in all of the sea (or actually aquariums) is Kenneth the XIII or 13th. He's kept in my room in a pile of travel junk so he has stuff to look at. He's very happy and just got his tank cleaned because it had a film on the surface of the water. Yuck!

7. I just learned how to do the Rubik's cube a while ago. Yippy! It's easy once you get the rhythm of it.

8. I love to read books though I never go to the library. Barnes and Noble is my 2nd home.

9. The Seems is my favorite book of all time. It has a great set of characters and a lot of wonderful ideas to go off of. It's a sci-fi crossed with a fantasy.

10. I like to build with Legos. The Ferry is my favorite one! It's huge, complete with drawbridge.

11. I've traveled to six countries in Europe and have been to Hawaii 5 times. Hammocks are fantastic!

12. I climb around in my fascinating ditch behind my house every winter. The walls are all snowy it's very cool, there is even a tree house half way to where it ends! I feel like I'm Indiana Jones.

13. Is my favorite number! It's unlucky which makes that much cooler! Especially when they're Fridays! Which there is one coming up soon too! Joy!

14. I'm attracted to colorful things. I buy lots of the exact same unnecessary thing just because it is in a different neon rainbow color.

15. I love to watch Mr.Bean, a British comedy series by Roan Atkinson. He i s hilarious! Most of it is visual. But ALL of it is pure comedic gold! You should check it out! (Just at the top to the left.)

16. I have 2 cats. Their names are Peat and Charles. Peat is the fattest Mancoon cat in the history of the whole world! Charles is very sweet and follows you everywhere. Plus, when you chase him he gets scared and lays down immediately. Save for the one on the right.

17. I enjoy going sledding in the winter. There is a big hill next to my house that is very convenient for winter activities of the sledding variety. Plus my ditch freezes over and I explore everywhere on it's icy surface. I feel like I'm climbing Everest or K2 because it has a huge snow wall and a ton of cool places to go to.

18. Blankets fascinate me. Also everything fluffy. I like to get all my blankets out of the closet, all of the pillows in the house, and every stuffed animal in my possession, all into one massive redevouse/correlation and make a play out of them. Yep, if you have a spare life, can I have it?

Thank you auto-save for saving , my work every 5 seconds!

19. You'd be surprised about how much I like music and singing it. Happy Together, Olyoxenfree, and Sweet Dreams, are my favorite songs of all time. Plus The Simpson's theme and the Ice Age theme are nice too.

20. Bubble wrap is the best packing material/easily distracted people pass time! All the little pops make fun for hours. The big ones and packing peanuts are nice too.

21. My favorite words to say: Kibble, Kumquat, Viceshious, Mango, Sopapilla, Curly Q, Guatemala, Pickle, Fruit Loop, Wackjob, Nutcase, Giddy, Wiggle, Nifty, Lima Bean, Convenient, fluc-shoo-ate (sp) and Purple. Some that I LOVE are missing 'cause I'm pullin' a blank.

22. We are re-doing our living room right now, so that translates into my love of modern design. I love modern design! It's gonna be really cool, complete with BIG (or it better be) Plasma screen television and secret room. (more like hole)

23. I like to draw. I've drawn a bunch of cute dessert objects with big eyes, a mountain scene that won a contest, and a shrimp on a sticky-note on the wall, so that i can point to the wall and say: "Omygosh, there's a shrimp on the wall!"

24. I used to have 2 guinea pigs. Butterscotch and Fluffy were their names. Fluff had (dare I say it?)
poop ( I said it) problems because her poop got tangled in her long hair. Plus Butterscotch had guinea pig morbidly obeseness. She would be 6 inches around when she walked, then, once she sat down her front would slide to the back and she'd be 10 inches around. (No kidding) They sat and pooped in a corner during "exercise time."

Thanks for listening to 24, if you are reading this. Last, 25, is just below. Sorry it's long.

25. I can't get enough of the outdoors! I love to hike, bike ride, swim, run, and just explore! During Eco Week in Pingree Park I hiked up Mummy pass! It was beautiful! Mountains! Biking is a must for me! I got a new one this year and conquered a steep slope of 15 feet with it! Swimming and running come naturally to me! I love track! I got first in the triple jump out of 25 people with 25.7 feet, and first and second on the 50 and100 meters at the district track meet! Like before, my ditch is a great, adventurous place for me. And last I poggoed 1002, one thousand, two, times on a poggoed stick in California with my younger cousin Tessa! I take great pride in the last one. Better start to beat it! 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-12-13-14-15-16-118-19-20.........996-997-998-999-whoops! Crash! Do'h! 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9...................................................................

Civil Rights Movement

We're gonna post on the Civil Rights Movement 'cause of the demented Open Court story Pretty Pennies. In 1948 President Truman signed Executive Order 9981 which states that all government officials were treated equally. 1954- Supreme Court rules segregation in schools is unconstitutional. 1955- Rosa parks does not give up her seat on the bus, and is sent to jail. 1957- Dr.King establishes the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. 1962- James Meredith becomes first black person to enrol in University of Mississippi. 1963-MLK (not to be confused with "milk") is arrested during a anti segregation protest. During civil rights protests in Birmingham, Ala., Commissioner of Public Safety Eugene "Bull" Connor uses fire hoses and police dogs on black demonstrators. On Aug. 28, 63 Dr.King Gives his "I Have a Dream" speech after a march. 1964-the 24th amendment which restricts blacks voting rights in 11 states is abolished. Prez. Johnson creates Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibits discrimination of race or color. 1965-Congress passes the Voting Rights Act of 1965, making it easier for Southern blacks to register to vote. Literacy tests, poll taxes, and other such requirements that were used to restrict black voting are made illegal. Executive Order 11646 is issued to stop unemployment of blacks because of color. 1968, April 4th Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is shot on his hotel balcony. James Earl Ray, an escaped convict, is held responsible. Thus, the sad end to my civil rights history report. :( See you next time! And it wont be so sad. It'll be on Apollo 9! Just kidding!

Pretty Pennies!!! ( It'll make sense later)

Peanut, Buddies! Now we're gonna do the lawnmower! Count it! Vrinnggg! Okay, anyway. I'll be bloggin' on different subjects history and random stuff too! So get ready for some serious Suthur-Stile-Blogin! Hilk. Hilk, Hilk!
