If I could google any question it would be why were Biggie and Tupac were killed. Why did the two most influential artist in the rap have to be killed before reaching their peak. Rap was still very young and the godfathers of rap music were killed without any true explanation. on September 7th 1996 Tupac Shakur was shot four times in a drive by shooting in Las Vegas. months later on March 9th 1997 The Notorious B.I.G (Christopher Wallace) was shot in a drive by shooting in Los Angelas. Despite the two rappers constant burns in their music Biggie admits that he would never wish death on Tupac. Both assassinations had little follow up and very few charges were pressed, how can the fathers of rap go out so unjustified? Myself being in love with both artists music feel cheated out of years of great music that never had the chance to grow. It is heart breaking that both icons had to go this way and rap has suffered ever since.

Eclipse of the Sonny

Clay swings with his left, Clay swings with his right,
Look at young Cassius carry the fight
Liston keeps backing, but there's not enough room,
It's a matter of time till Clay lowers the boom.
Now Clay lands with a right, what a beautiful swing,
And the punch raises the Bear clean out of the ring.
Liston is still rising and the ref wears a frown,
For he can't start counting till Sonny goes down.
Now Liston is disappearing from view, the crowd is going frantic,
But radar stations have picked him up, somewhere over the Atlantic.
Who would have thought when they came to the fight?
That they'd witness the launching of a human satellite.
Yes the crowd did not dream, when they put up the money,
That they would see a total eclipse of the Sonny.

- Muhammad Ali

America the Beautiful

Just outside of Walcott Iowa stands the farm that my family has owned for owned for over three generations. When you go to the farm you can find little bits of each generation when they worked there. I follow the path of my father and grandfather working on the farm except I only do so in the summer. As hard as the work seems at times and as hot as the temps get there is always a cool breeze at the perfect time completing my definition of bliss in America.I know for a fact that when I become an adult my children will get to experience the farm in the same way i have. it truly is a major part of my life and has been the employer or my family for over three generations now and i intend on giving my children the same experience as what i have been given.

Taking a Stand

I feel that everyone should be treated as an equal, so I also believe that gay marriage should be legal. Everyone wants to expeirence love with someone and no one desearves to have that taken away from them because it has been frowned upon in years before. This is a new generation change is everywhere and gay marriage needs to be legalized.
