Prohibition, 1927

The prohibition started around the 1920's. Prohibition was about the ban of alcohol. The government thought that by baning alcohol it would make the U.S a better place. The band of alcohol made many people angry. Little did they know that it would change the country for ever. The worlds biggest mobster Al Capone made millions just by selling alcohol. Some people started to make under ground bar's. Once the government took notice of what was happening they realised that the consumption of alcohol raised. The government fought with the people for years about the band of alcohol. Soon the prohibition ended.

The book I am reading is No Choirboy. The book is really good so far. It is about teenagers that end up on death row. They tell about there experiences in jail. They tell about how they they ended up in jail. the crazy thing about the book is that most of the kids are just average people. They were good kid they just made one mistake. Now they have to spend the rest of there life in regret.

This I Believe

My story is about death and life. This is about the good times and the bad, how I handled my own problems, and how I have learned to deal with life and death. This is my experience with the life of my son and the death of a famliy member.


I used to be married and I had a son. My son's name is Noah. He was born on august 3rd. He was 8 pounds 10 ounces and born at 12:00 am right on the dot. My wife and I wanted to start a family. Nine months later little Noah came into this world. Like all births it was a crazy experience. Even though my wife and I didn't stay together that was a night I will never forget.


I believe that in all life there is death. How people deal with death has a lot to say about them. For me I just lost someone close to me. What I did was I just sat around my house for a little bit when I heard the news. I was really lost and I had no idea what to do. I sat there and just thought about all the good times me and that person shared. I think I handled it really well considering the circumstances. Most people grieve for a long time with death. I know that most of my family will die before I do but I'm preparing myself now.


The reason I believe that with all life there is death is because it is true. Death is a part of life. Every time someone comes in this world another one leaves. That is just life. Life and death are very unpredictable that way. You have to live every day like it is your last. I believe in life and death.

What does it take to be a good citizen. I think it would take a kind person. It would take someone who is responsible. I also think that is someone who will help you fix a flat in the rain around midnight. I think that it is someone who you can call when ever you need help. No matter the time.

I used to be scared of high places. My first job was roofing. Most of the building we roofed were very high. So working on a tall building was not an issue for me any more.

I have a best friend and her name is Kayla. Kayla and I have been best friends for about ten years now. She is very much apart of my family. I am well trusted in Kayla's family. Kayla is like my sister and I'm like her brother. Kayla is also my tattoo artist.

My life without technology would be boring. I would try to do more things to fill my days. I would be late to every thing I plan. I have gone without T.V, phone and games for about a year. I really don't want to go back to that life. I am much better off with technology in my life then without it.
