10/23/06
I had a slow day. First, I forgot to bring in my research for Government class. Later on, during band, it started to snow. So how fun is it on a day in which you dressed for inside to be marching and playing outside in snow. Not that much. So, I got my research after school, brought it up to the school and now I'm at a friends house. Hope you had a better day than me. Ta Ta For Now.

DID YOU KNOW...
... that in 1919, the discharge of the chief of police of Berlin led to a general strike and accompanying fighting known as the Spartacist uprising, in which over 500,000 workers took part?

PICTURE OF THE DAY

The Natchez Trace Parkway Bridge is a concrete double arch bridge located 14 km from the northern terminus of the Natchez Trace Parkway in Williamson County, Tennessee. It is 479.1 m long and carries the two-lane Natchez Trace Parkway 44.2 m over State Route 96 and a heavily wooded valley. The 177.4 m long main span is symmetrical, while the 140.8 m long second arch is not, due to the slope of the valley at the southern end of the bridge.
