Issue One
August 2010



Have you ever wanted something that you probably could not get for a really long time? That’s how I feel about the iPad. Hey, this is Cal Jordan! I’ll be writing this column for the next few months.
Have you heard of the iPad? I’m pretty sure you have. It weighs just over a pound. The iPad has features that a laptop has and it has a touch screen! It has a powerful gaming system and wireless Internet. Why do I want an iPad? I’ve always wanted a small laptop, so the iPad is small and works a lot like a laptop. Don’t you want one?
I live in Ghana as a missionary kid. It’s a hard life as a MK here. One building project such as a house can take several years. On our road, there are two houses which have been standing for over four years! A poor family will move in the uncompleted building. And our currency, the cedi, is almost like the dollar. These are some random facts from life here!
Cal Jordan
By the way, did you know that Egypt was the first country to have pets?

As of late, I’ve seemed to have been wanting to say “Wheee!!” more often. I have no idea why.
Well...if you wanted to know, I ‘twas never one for good beginnings? Oh well...so I think I’d best jump in! Wheeee!!!
Ahem. The reason I decided to start this mainly came during one of my boredom fits. (that’s when I can’t think of ANYTHING I want to do even thought if I can’t think of anything, I know that I have journals to write, stuff to do....you get the point. Wink And then...TADA! Microsoft Office Publisher just opened! It typed everything in here by itself!! :O Okay, so maybe the last part was a little tweaked. Smile
What will normally be coming here is what’s going on around the HR, and statistics. You may SOMETIMES get juicy secrets, but you never ever heard them from me. Capiche? Well...now for the HR stats!
As of July 26, we have:
123 topics (with 0.77 made a day)
6798 posts (roughly 42 a day)
48 users (with .3 a day)
The board itself has been running for a whopping 160 days! (Of course, when you read this, it will be more or less)
Our most active topic was Boys v. Girls (start a new one!) followed by RoG and Describe the Person Above You.
The most viewed topic was RoG, followed by Boys v. Girls and Describe the Person Above You.
FiddleRose and I are the most active topic starters (29 each). I have made the most posts in July, then Pyro Malestrom and FiddleRose!
The month with most users was in February!
There are more stats, but that’s all I’ll give for now! Bye! Whee!!


An Interview with an Interviewee


What's your name?
Benjamin Gabriel Davis
What's it like having SIX siblings?
What's it like having one?
Do they look up to you like the head lettuce or the big cheese? Why?
Neither really.
Do you think you live an ordinary life? Why or why not?
Ordinary life is, at present, dull. Why? I have no idea it came to be this way.

Would you trade your life for anyone else?
NO WAY. I would never let anyone take care of my family other than myself.
 Please describe yourself, IN YOUR OWN WORDS (or someone else's words... I guess it doesn't matter that much). You may choose to include hair colour, schooling, religion, denomination, social security number, and your credit card type (and its accompanying number, security code, and cardholder's name [exactly as it appears on card]).
Describe myself eh? Well, I have dark brown wavy hair, green eyes, am home schooled, I have no religion, my SS number is classified, as are the rest of my numbers.
Why do you like the HR? Or, if you don't like it, why in the world are you here answering this question?
I like the HR. Why did you even ask this question!?
Would you stay if you knew I was keeping you for mind control one day?
Then I would say, watch your body in the dark, for I may have something gruesome for you.

What's one of your best secrets? Don't worry it's safe with me.
They are none o' your stinkin business. 
If you had complete administrative powers on the HR and could do anything you wanted with no repercussions, what would you do?
I would... do something when I am met with it, only because I am content with the way HR is being... administrated.
Hmm...interesting. Thanks for answering my questions!!!

How bizarre! Rather amusing though. Very Happy You should look into interviewing someone else sometime.


(Oh, and I disaprove of your interviewee's way of desribing himself. He does have a religion, but is too stuborn to call it what everyone else does.)

Oh no, Sir. It was the interviewee's response to a question. Nothing at all to do with the Interviewer!!!!

No problem, monsieur, but please try not to let it happen again. You did an excellent job as interviewer. You should make a career of it, I dare say!
